Q: Hello, last question on bond ETFs: for diversification purposes, having in my RSP individual canadian bonds, it might be interesting to invest in VGAB or VBU for additional money in fixed income products. For a long term investment, which ETF is preferable for the next few years: VGAB or VBU (given the interest rate context, etc.)? Thanks.

Q: Hello, thank you for your answer on the VGAB ETF. VGAB has about 50% of its holdings in the US, can you recommend CAN$ bond ETFs with 100% holdings in the US? Thanks.
- iShares Core Canadian Universe Bond Index ETF (XBB)
- Vanguard Global Aggregate Bond Index ETF (CAD-hedged) (VGAB)
Q: Hello, I plan to rebalance my portfolio in the new year, increasing my bond component in my reg accounts. I already have Canadian individual bonds in my RSP, so I was looking at VGAB for diversification, but when I compare it to XBB, it underperformed XBB for every period in the last 5 years. What do you think of VGAB and should I just keep it simple and use XBB instead? Thanks
