Could you please suggest a couple of etf alternatives that could be added to provide a little more torque with a 5 year timeframe. A brief explanation for each would be appreciated. Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i team,
My understanding of momentum investing is to invest in stocks whose price is in a rising pattern in the recent past and to sell stocks that have a downward trend in price in the same period. So if the market switches from ‘growth’ to ‘value’ focused, would the momentum approach be a good choice to capture this change automatically when growth stocks fall and value stocks rise? Can you please expand and comment on the use of momentum investing strategy by ETFs? Please provide comments and thoughts on using this momentum strategy ZXM for asset allocation to Int’l developed markets. Many thanks.

Q: Hi Peter,
I have a portfolio of CND stocks, AT, EGLX,ERO,WELL,KRR.XBC, and a portfolio of US listed stocks, DCBO,CRWD,FUBO,MITK,LSPD,PINS,KL. I am comfortable with my holdings and dont plan to sell in the short term. Based on the context of my portfolio, should I decide to hedge my portfolio by buying HUV:CA, as rule of thumb, what % of my portfolio would you think would be adequate to hedge without having to highly dilute my overall returns. I hope I am making sense with the question I am asking.
Your assistance is much appreciated.

Mawer Global Small Cap Fund Series A (MAW150 $16.81)
Q: To get some exposure to small caps, I invested in MAW150 late last year; I wonder if XSU has done better in the same time frame. If so, any idea why? And if so, would you switch to XSU? I intend to hold for what I see as the medium term, 2-3 years. Thanks!

iShares 1-5 Year Laddered Government Bond Index ETF (CLF $17.60)
Q: These ETFs make up my main bond holdings in an RSP. All have done OK, but are starting to slip a little bit. I also hold XTR, which has a high bond component, and noticed that they recently reduced the distribution. In an increasing rate environment, how would you rank these 3 bond ETFs in terms of (1) maintaining share price; and, (2) maintaining distributions?
Thank-you
Thank-you
