Portfolio Planners Prepare for Uncertain Year-End

After a rocky third quarter, TheStreet.com's Portfolio Planners are on the defense, raising cash levels and shifting bond allocations in preparation for an uncertain end of the millennium.

All four of the portfolios gave up ground during the third quarter. Losses ranged from a low of 2% for Ron Roge's Golden Years Portfolio, to 5.4% for Vern Hayden's Empty-Nester's Portfolio. (For a look at how all the portfolios fared, see the Scoreboard.)

All four portfolios remain in the black for the year through Sept. 30.
