Q: I have cash in my portfolio. I am looking for a multi asset ETF. Ideally, I would like a 1 ticket multi asset ETF that has a category / asset class of "alternatives". (ie private equity) Is this available on the TSX? Could suggest 2-3 multi asset ETFs. If these ETF do not include "alternatives", are there any ETF that specialize in "alternatives" ie private equities not tied into the market. I understand liquidity may be an issue for such an ETF. Thank you

Q: I would like to invest in private equity and credit stocks. Is there an ETF that you would recommend.

Thanks for the great service

Q: Hi,
Brian asked about private equity on June 25. In your response you mention that private equity is not correlated to other assets. I am looking at the 10 year performance of PSP vs. SPY and their charts move up and down in almost perfect parallel (pre-COVID run ups, COVID crashes, post-COVID run ups, etc.), with PSP returning 93% and SPY 234%. On a 4-5 year time scale, PSP/SPY/NGPE move up and down in parallel as well. I am struggling to find a reason to invest in a private equity ETF based on this. Is it because an ETF, regardless of what it is investing in, is in fact correlated since it is traded like any other equity?
Thank you for all the great information your provide, Michael
