The Blended Benchmark is a customized index composed of 60% in the S&P 500 Stock Index, 30% in the Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index and 10% in the Merrill Lynch 3-Month U.S. Treasury Index.

The S&P 500 index is a broad based unmanaged index of 500 stocks, which is widely recognized as a representative of the equity market in general.  S&P 500 Stock Index is a registered trademark of McGraw Hill, Inc.


The Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index is a market-capitalization-weighted index of investment-grade, fixed-rate debt issues, including government, corporate, asset-backed  and mortgage-backed securities, with maturities of at least one year.. 


The Merrill Lynch 3-Month U.S. Treasury Index is comprised of a single issue purchased at the beginning of the month and held for a full month.  Each month the index is rebalanced and the issue selected is the outstanding Treasury Bill that matures closes to, but not beyond three months from the rebalancing date.
