Comparison I'm a retired investor with a balanced portfolio looking for a stable total return. I am wondering if a switch from BLX to FTS would provide a greater overall return over the next 5 years?
We like FTS and it is one of our favourites. But from a total return viewpoint smaller companies can often outperform. BLX is $4B market cap, but FTS is 6X as large. BLX is growing faster. We would side with BLX here, but only as the question is asking for total return potential and not indicative of risk differences. (5iResearch)
