Yeah, I would.
I mean, I think the cryogenically frozen person could very well be in 100% in equity assets and be okay.
Yeah, I would like to think that even with this 20%, and I would call it's kind of like the motor oil you're putting in the engine to lubricate the portfolio, because there are going to be times in March 2020...
would have had that drawdown we were talking about, equities fell 30% or 35%.
Man, it would be great to rebalance toward target or go overweight equities at that point.
If you're already 100% in equities, you can't rebalance.
By definition, you're already in.
So that's when you tap that 20% in equities at attractive values, and then you take that money off the table at times of frothiness.
And again, this part of the diversifiers in particular, liquid uncorrelated diversifiers that can generate high single-digit returns with very little correlation to other markets,
that adds a lot of value and balance to the portfolio too.
Yes, liquid and I would say uncorrelated is just as important a term.
So it does you little good to have something that is a 0.4 beta to the S&P.
That's not really a diversifier.
But if you have something where independent of what's happening in rates or equities, and it's still cranking out solid returns based on fundamentals, we do have macro strategies that we implement where we're agonizing over risk and managing it accordingly in the strategy to make sure that while it's taking specific bets in currencies or rates or equities,
It's hedged and stress tested to make, in an aggregate, it has no correlation to the equity market.
And if that's capable of generating an 8% to 10% return, that's where I would agree with Asimis again, like a low volatility strategy, really in a diversifying construct can be quite valuable.
It's a great question.
And I think there is a fair amount of gap between 30 to 50.
Maybe the right answer is somewhere in between, but let's take 50 plus and just talk about what goes wrong with that.
And that's where imagine having that allocation at the end of 2021 and how it's gone.
