Q: Realty preferred shares are being redeemed so I have some funds to buy more safe income securities. I'm thinking a US GIC paying 4.35% (fully secured) or SGOV 5.22% secure with some fluctuation or FBND 4.77% not including fees. Where do you think the value lies.

Q: I'd like to buy a bond ETF that is actively managed. Please recommend 2 or 3 ETF's that have a track record of doing better than those that are not actively managed. If you have other suggestions that would help me achieve superior returns from the bond universe I'm open to all suggestions.
