Hi, long time reader. Made a few posts awhile back but forgot the username. anyway...
I've finally managed some savings and would like to keep them safe, maybe even with a little growth through this bumpy plateau...
I'm an Australian. I've come across a couple portfolio recommendations that I'd like to go with but they list US stocks/funds/etfs:
1st portfolio:
Stocks 70%
Trad energy XLE 17.5%
Alternative energy PBW+PKN 17.5%
Materials XLB 17.5%
Precious Metals GDX 17.5%
Commodities: 30%
Crude Oil USL or XOP15%
Gol GLD 10%
Silver SLV 5%
2nd portfolio: (as from will martin at peakoilproof.com)
Country ETFs - 50%
Australia - 10% - EWA
Brazil - 10% - EWZ
Canada - 10% - EWC
Norway and Scandinavia - 10% - GXF
Russia - 10% - RSX
Commodity ETFs - 20%
Agriculture - 5% - DBA
Metals
Gold - 5% - GLD
Silver - 5% - SLV
Industrial Metals - 5% - RJZ
Energy ETFs - 30%
Oil - 20% - VDE
Coal - 5% - KOL
Renewable Energy - 5% - PBD
Can anyone offer suggestions as to how to implement the above on the ASX?
