Q: A couple of bond funds, namely CLF and CBO are now trading at 52 week lows. Is this an opportunity to buy them or evidence that the market is expecting higher interest rates and therefore forebodes further decreases in the prices of the these funds? ... or something else?

Q: Hello Peter and the 5i Team:
What is your opinion on CEW Equal Weight Bank and Lifeco ETF as a diversified investment in the financial sector? It would be about 8.4% of the overall portfolio. CEW holds 10 bank and insurance company stocks.
The purchase of CEW would be funded by the sale of TD, as I realize that 8.4% is too high a weighting for this one bank stock. A commentator on BNN suggested greater diversification in this sector going forward.
As usual, thanks in advance for your timely advice and excellent service.

Q: Hi,
What is your opinion on stock picking vs ETF investing. How many ETF's should one hold in a portfolio of say $100k. What would your ETF recommendations be for such a portfolio as there are so many of them out there and it is difficult to choose one from the other.

Q: Hello Peter and Team
First off keep up the excellent work!
My question revolves around a RESP. We max out contributions each year and currently we have $2500 invested, another 2500 in cash with approx $1000.00 coming in from the Fed. Gvt.(grant program) The 2500 is in ZCN. We would like to look at an emerging market and or bio tech etf as a second holding what would you suggest and why? Additionally if there is another etf in another sector that you believe would be a good buy currently or in the next few months please let us know.
Once again much appreciated and have a great week!
