Why does the stoplight show a yellow or red light when the Ending Balance of my plan is so high?
The stoplight will be green only when the performance of the plan is very strong. The ending portfolio balance thats shown is the median ending balance taken over all the simulation runs. While on average (50% of the time) you may end with a high balance, successful retirement planning is usually based on much better odds for success, typically 90% or greater.
