Q: I have US cash to manage to fund our snowbird expenses. I need lower risk, liquidity, with a decent return and HISU.U seems to meet this criteria. Do you think there is a benefit to diversify the cash portfolio into equal amounts of other similar ETF's like PSU.U, ZUP.U, ZMI.U or ZWB.U? Can you recommend a US ETF with moderate risk and opportunity for growth that I could allocate 20% of this cash portfolio for a 5 to 10 year hold? Thanks!
5i Research Answer:
We would see no material differences between the funds noted and would not see the need to diversify. We would see VFMV as a low-vol, conservative ETF with growth potential as well.
