I'm doing a bit of background reading towards putting together a balanced portfolio in my stocks and shares ISA.
I've read that having a good mix of bond and equity investments can help to mitigate against losses but all the current evidence suggests that there will be a bear market when QE is wound down.
So, if you were starting up, would you bother with bonds? I am of course, taking the long view i.e 5-10 years.
