Q: Hi,
My kids are all about 30 years old and have most of their retirement investments in equities with some bonds, e.g. VGRO.
Given the poor expectations for bonds, is it reasonable to move to all equities?
If so, which ETFs would you recommended? I was thinking VEQT or XAW?
Thanks

Q: I intend to increase the "very safe part" of my portfolios with fixed income ETFs, is a mix of corporate and government bond ETF a good choice with this objective or any other suggestion ? I suppose that longer term bond ETF would be more risky if rates do increase ?

Q: Hi Peter and Team,
Over the last 5 years, HHL's price dropped by just under 30% although its underlying stocks had appreciated over the same time period. I just can't wrap my head around this and would you please comment on how this is possible.
Also which one would be your choice for a full position HHL vs LIFE?
Regards,

I there is do you know how much? If there is then perhaps this would be more suited in an RRSP. I'm retired and am looking for income. Thanks for your help.

Mike
