Q: I am concerned about the possibility of a bear market and would like to reduce my equity risk. I am looking for a safe investment which is highly liquid. I am in the process of considering cashable GICs. Are there any ETFs which you would recommend for money market funds? Can you please recommend an ETF for the Canadian market and one ETF for the US market.

Also, for a 1-2 year hold, what type of bond ETF would you recommend (long bond, mid-term, etc) for a fairly safe investment? Again, can you please recommend one Canadian and one US ETF.

Thank you again for this excellent service.

Q: Hello, I am looking at these 3 ETFs to park my cash, now that short term interest rates have come down and ETFs like PSA or HSAV have much less attractive rates than 6 months ago. Can you highlight the main differences between MNY, CBIL and CMR and sort these by increasing risk level? FYI, CMR will add asset-backed paper to its portfolio sometime next year. Thanks!

Q: Lots of good Q&A lately on parking short term cash.

I have $100K to invest. Are one of these more suitable than the others for quickly withdrawing an amount as required when I want to purchase stocks or equity ETF's?

Would you feel comfortable putting the whole amount in any one of these, or is it best to diversify a bit?

Do you have a recommended USD version(s) for my USD account ?
