We will explore whether mean-variance portfolio selection (MV) and expected utility of terminal wealth maximization maxim (EU) make compatible portfolio selection decisions in the presence of a dominating asset. A three asset, three state model is presented to highlight the inconsistency between MV and EU when a dominated asset is present.
