Aggressive Growth Allocation
The aggressive growth portfolio of the sample allocation is a 100% equity exposure. Aggressive growth-oriented investors typically have a longer investment horizon and are willing to accept the additional risks and fluctuations in their portfolio for the potential of higher long-term returns. The sample portfolio allocation can be rebalanced as often as desired back to the fixed weights (quarterly, semi-annually, or annually).
Looking to add an aggressive base to a client's portfolio, the portfolio sample below is focused on broad market equity for both Canadian, US and International exposure. Potential Claymore ETFs include the Claymore Canadian Fundamental Index ETF (CRQ), the Claymore US Fundamental Index ETF hedged (CLU) and the Claymore International Fundamental Index ETF (CIE). To gain some exposure to emerging markets equity and to the global real estate market, possible inclusions are the Claymore Broad Emerging Markets ETF (CWO) and the Claymore Global Real Estate ETF (CGR), respectively. The broad market equity exposure uses a Fundamental Indexing™ strategy, which weights companies by four factors: Total Sales, Total Cash Flow, Total Dividends, and Total Book Equity Value
