Q: Hi Guys
will the default level not go through the roof on all these Corporate Bonds in the next few years when they have to re issue debt at much higher levels ? and wont a recession really contribute to high bankruptcies.
What kind of a correction in this ETF can we expect, something along the lines of 30 %, Algonquin Power was sure hit hard with higher floating rates.
Thanks Gord

Q: COWZ seems to have outperformed broader indexes like SPY and RSP. It seems to have outperformed several other factor or other specialized ETFs like SCHD and JEPI. I say ‘seems’ because neither RBC-DI nor iTRADE charts identify if dividends are included in the stock charts depicted on their respective platforms.
I am puzzled because COWZ trades more than broader ETFs and has higher trading fees ; also its MER is higher at 0.49 (source ETF.com). Am I missing something or is COWZ indeed a good vehicle for a portfolio? Would you top up existing positions in JEP and SCHEDULED or start a modest position in COWZ? I would appreciate if you would add color to your answer.

Q: Hi Peter,
I would like your opinions on Discount Bonds ETFs vs regular bond ETFs. My understanding is that discount bonds etf is earning interest income comparable to regular bond etfs, but when the central banks decide to cut rate down the road, discount bonds etf will generate higher capital gain than regular bond etfs. So at this point of inflation and rate movement, is it better to purchase discount bonds etfs? Which discount bonds etf is your favourite? How’s your favourite as compared to DXDB and ZDB? Thanks.
