Q: I am overweight in a bank stock and will be selling some and since I have no bonds I am wondering if okay to just buy XHY as it would be a 5% position. This is for a RRSP account and not needed for at least 5-7 years.
Thanks

iShares 1-5 Year Laddered Corporate Bond Index ETF (CBO)
Q: Hi: I am listening to all the doom and gloom about bonds - heard the term yesterday "taper tantrum". I have about 40% of my Fixed Income Exposure in CBO, 40% in HPR and 10% in HAB. HPR has slowly recovered from its downturn of a few years ago and I like the yield. HAB is doing better than CBO. Question - should I sell CBO at a loss and invest in a more active fund like HAB? My time horizon is at least 5 years.

I am thinking of starting my ETF income portfolio with a 5% position in PMIF. With all the interest rate forecasts for 2018, do you think waiting for later in the year is advisable or strike now?
Thanks team and a prosperous New Year to all.

Q: I hold ZEB. The banks have been good since 2009 raising dividends. Would those individual dividend increases be passed on and benefit holders of this etf? Thanks, Bill
Q: Many of my friends upgraded to the $60 - 10GB holiday promotion plan offered by both and it seemed to be brought up at every party I went to. This would have increased my bill by 50% so I didn't do so. I'm thinking that this promotion should move the needle on spend per client and move the margins - as 10GB is nice, but most will not be able to use it. Telus recently bought Alarm Force, adding 30,000 subscribers (which won't hit the Feb 8th quarter). Do the Feb 8th upcoming earnings for both include Christmas sales? With the recent dip in BCE I'm thinking of adding to both. Your thoughts?

Q: Hello Peter and Staff:
I am a retired investor with a 4 % position in Corus common shares.
With today's 2018 1st Quarter results and negative market reaction, I would like your comments and advice as to what to do with this stock.
The dividend has been maintained for the next 3 months and I like the income but am concerned about preserving my capital.
Thank you,
M.I.Curtis
