    "IEF": "US Aggregate Bonds mapped to existing IEF Treasury proxy; does not reproduce aggregate-bond credit, mortgage or duration exposures.",

  "interpretation": "Conditional fixed-mix approximation to ELM, not an empirical model of its dynamic strategy. Current targets are not actual holdings or a forecast of its future average allocation. Baseline is a sensitivity, not a second proposed portfolio."
