Q: In your reply to my earlier questions, you advised that RPAR and NTSX could be considered core.
1. Given low volumes, should liquidity be considered a risk in a down market?
2. How do the Sharpe ratios compare? Do they achieve the goal of less risk than the market, with decent returns?
3. The drawdown with NTSX was much higher than RPAR - can you explain?
4. What percentages would you advise for one or both as core holdings?
Thank you.

Q: What do you advise about Risk Parity as a strategy to reduce risk while generating a reasonable return. Of the 4 named risk parity ETFs do you have a preference?

Q: RPAR is newish ETF. Conservative. My interest is to protect capital in expected volatile markets as part of L/T barbell strategy. Would grow initial position to 3+% over time. SWAN in same category.
Would you advise either or another for some growth with capital preservation in mind?
Thanks for advice.
