Q: David Picton is claiming the traditional 80/20 or 60/40 portfolio is history and investors should be thinking about having a 40, 30, 30 portfolio with liquid alternatives (alpha driven strategies). They suggest something that does not move in sync with bonds or stocks. What is your opinion on this and if you support this strategy what alternative investments would you suggest a novice in this area look into? Anything at Picton Mahoney? Thank you!

Q: Good afternoon,

I am planning on rethinking the majority of my investment strategy (choosing my own stocks). I plan on switching to a more ETF focused approach where I have 20% in bonds/gic, 15% US ETF, 20% Canadian ETF, 20% Foreign ETF and the rest left to my whims. For the Foreign ETF I was think VXUS and SPY for the US but what would be your recommended ETFs for US, Canada and Foreign (and perhaps bonds)?
For reference I am in my early 20s so I have a bigger risk appetite and presumably longer time horizon.

Thank you very much,
Aidan

Q: With PNG's bought deal and the stock trading down close to the bought price of 2.66, is this an opportunity to add to position at a bit of a discount? The thesis is once the bought deal is finished, the company and stock should continue to perform as well, if not better, as it was before the deal. The new money will fund expansionary growth and as the company hinted at, perhaps finance an acquisition. Make sense?
