The start of 2022 has been one of the worst in history for both stocks and bonds. However, in the past, calendar year returns have been positive a lot more often than not; even after historically bad starts to a year.

The benefits of diversification became much harder to see year-to-date as global asset classes have suffered very similar losses.

are rare. Since 1981, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index only ended a year with a negative return four times .
