If we were to choose another today, it would be BN. It is not exactly a wallflower, being up 62% in the past year. Of course, KKR is up 112%. KKR is about 35% larger, and about twice as expensive on valuation. But P/E is not always a great metric in this sector, as results depend on deals and monetization of assets. With better momentum, and if one does not care about geographic location (note BN is based in Toronto but its business is very global) we could make a case to concentrate on KKR if one wants the momentum trade. But we do like diversification, and would be very comfortable owning both right now.
