Q: IWC and DFE
Hi Peter & Co:
This morning, Cam Hui sent out his blog entry, "Humble Student of the Markets", writing about two Micro-Cap ETFs, IWC for the U.S. and the other, DFE, for Europe. Although Cam was writing about a seasonal trade, my question is whether these ETFs can form a further diversification of a portfolio with say, a 5%, exposure to Small Caps, usually gained through IWO?
Kind regards, Gail
Q: Peter - can you please recommend an ETF that captures the China market? This will represent 3 to 5 percent of my portfolio. I looked at XCH, however I am concerned of the very low trading volume. Is this an issue? Thank You.

will you pl suggest ten US or international stocks, which are out of favour but has strong fundaments/balance sheets for buying during the upcoming tax loss selling season and has good potential for gains if we hold these for one to two years?

Q: Hi Peter and team: Are you in a position to comment on the iShares MSCI South Africa ETF that was mentioned in David Berman's glam article yesterday? I checked out its performance and looked at the main constituent companies and it looks OK to me (though I couldn't tell if "blood diamonds" were involved anywhere). Berman suggested it as a way of investing in Africa -though it is represented in other countries also. Thanks for any information you can provide.
Q: Just started looking at setting up the suggested ETF portfolio in moneysaver magazine. What do you think about substituting IDV for FEZ? It has a higher morningstar rating and looks like very good long term performance? What is the difference for a person trying to set up this diversified ETF portfolia you suggest? thanks very much.
Q: Hello Team 5i,
I have a diverse portfolio consisting of many companies, some of the companies are located in faraway places, hence my question about tax treaties with other countries. In my RRSP account I am consistently being deducted funds when I receive dividends, I assume for taxes, below are a few of the companies doing this. I have contacted my brokerage company and am basically told this is the way it is. One of the companies below “Williams Partners” deducted the most money. I thought we had a tax treaty in place (USA) or is there something I need to sign.
Williams Partners LP NYSE:WPZ, China Mobile Ltd NYSE:CHL, Royal Dutch Shell PLCNYSE:RDS.A
Your help is always appreciated,
