Q: Good Morning,
I recently came into $23k US which is pure investment money. I do not need it for anything else. I would like to keep it in US funds. Are there any screaming buys out there for growth and/or income that I could park the money and watch it grow?
Thanks,

Q: I would appreciate your opinion on PID versus PFM. 3 & 5 years performance as well as sharp ratio is much better for PFM than PID while standard deviation for PFM is lower. So don't understand why morning star is giving PID 5* rating while PFM has only 3* rating. Am I missing something? would you have a better alternative to these two?

Thanks
