Q: I have some cash that I was thinking of putting into PSA or CASH for the shorter term. But I am wondering if the unit price of those may drop suddenly when the market turns bullish, and investors move back into stocks. So, well I may earn a nice yield, I could lose some capital. Is that something I should worry about? Thanks.

Q: Last week Horizons issued press release indicating they were suspending new subscriptions after reaching approx. $US 775 million in assets.
The release says that “ during a period of suspended subscriptions , the Manager expects the shares of HSUV.U to trade at a premium to its NAV per share . While new subscriptions are suspended , Horizons ETFs is strongly discouraging investors from purchasing shares of HSUV. U “ .
As of today , the price and NAV are within a few cents of each other.
How should this press release be interpreted ?
Is it just a formality ?
Or should you be listening when Company issues a caution on its own product ?
Thanks.

Q: I noted and likely your strategy to add to XHY for income and possible capital gains. However, when I looked at high yield corp. bond ETFs, ZJK looked better overall. There is also the matter of CAD hedging. I'm looking to park cash for my 2023 RIF withdrawal this December and I've been using the BMO HISA for this. Can I have your opinion on using ZJK or XHY instead for about 2% higher income?

Q: Hi,

A great question by Rodney today (Jan 11) on Tech sector "rolling over" and comparing it to the current status in O&G sector. I really appreciated your measured and thoughtful response.

This is a quick follow up question to your answer to Rodney's question:

I "get" the 80$ markin XLE as an indicator to monitor. Makes sense.

But what other sectors would like XLE to be compared to? XMA or XLI or XGD.....not sure if you meant ALL the 11 sectors in S&P or some specific sectors that are comparable to O&G.

Many thanks for the clarification.
