Is 5% annual profit, after taxes, a reasonable return on a stock,\bond portfolio for a enterprising investor?

What could be done to increase without too much risk?

>> No.1194789

Your question is very tricky since you said after tax. Highly variable so I can't answer.

most of my holdings are 10% p.a, after tax and fees

5% is pleb tier. too low-risk for me. might as well just let that cash sit in a long term deposit

>> No.1194856

It depends on the state of the economy friend.

8% is a reasonable return, but that's over the course of a decade not a year. 5% could be great, or it might be terrible. It's all relative.

Don't get too caught up on the year to year earnings.

Depends on your risk level. If you aren't too risky then returns will be okay. If you take some risk you can earn alot more, but also lose more.
