Where Do Alternatives Fit In A Portfolio ?

TedTed
edited November 2014 in The Bullpen
FYI: So-called liquid alternative funds have begun their march from the fringe to the mainstream, some investment professionals say. But the increase in popularity of holdings such as “long short” funds and “unconstrained” bond funds raises questions about where they fit in an investment portfolio.
Are such funds an asset class of their own or subsets of, say, an investor’s stock and bond allocations?
Regards,
Ted
