Why would I pick a different decade than the one specifically for which Vanguard has repeatedly projected that international would outperform? That makes no sense.a whole decade? wow. Now that's a long time. I'm being cheeky of course. What if you picked a different 10 year period, one where international outperformed U.S., then what would you think?My point is: Vanguard has been wrong about their 40% allocation for a decade, but they are sticking to it. And the reason they are doing it is because they continue to project higher future returns, the same flawed reasoning they used in the past.

Small Cap Value can underperform for 19.5 years but does that mean it should be avoided like the plague?
