Q: Hi, I'm looking to add either VDU and VUN or VTI:US and VXUS:US to my wife's position. She's diversified in Canada but looking for US and foreign exposure for the long haul. The difference between these two sets is one is Cdn and one is US - so essentially this is a currency hedge question. Do you have a preference for which set? Thank you.

Q: Hi
What do you think of Wellpoint for a buy right now. The only US stock I have right now is Emerson (EMR). Would a US healthcare ETF be better way to go? If so what would it be? Thanks

Thanks.
Thanks.

Q: The US portion of my portfolio consists of CSCO, MCD, UTX, BHP and AAPL (a little bit heavy on the Tech side because of no exposure on the Canadian technology front). I took some profits and trimmed my exposure to CSCO and MCD after nice run-ups and am looking to use the proceeds to further diversify. I'm thinking perhaps a US financial (and really a play on Consumer Discretionary spending) like AXP or a Medical Supplies company like BDX. Or does something else jump out at you as being a nice complement to what I own? Thanks.
Q: could you comment on the stock gur .any suggestions for other etf? to consider Thanks CR
