Q: I wish to add more fixed income to both my Can $ and US$ portfolios. Reviewing recent Q & A has given me information for Canadian options. Can you suggest US$ Etf's for US and/or international exposure. Thanks for your help and continuing good advice. Doug

Q: I notice that DBX is declining today while most tech companies are doing well. I’m wondering what the reason is for the relative weakness and if that’s a bad sign. What’s the valuation like after the drop?

Also, in a recent answer you referred to BOX and DBX as the two best in their sector. Did you mean “cloud computing” as a sector? Perhaps you could name a few of their rivals to give me a better idea of what you meant. Thanks.

Q: Healthcare is approximately 10% of our portfolio. Medical Facilities is the largest investment which we have held for a long time. JNJ and HCP we have added more recently. NVS and AZN we inherited. We want to simplify our portfolio and plan to sell NVS and AZN and add to JNJ. Wonder what your opinion is of DR and HCP specifically and also AZN which I didn't see mentioned in your question section.
Thank you, Marie

Q: I have 4 stocks on my US watch list and even when the market is underperforming they always outperform the Market. One of them TRHC I asked you about awhile ago and you said it was a good growth story. I should have acted on it then. The other 3 are SRPT, NTLA and FNKO. Which one do you think would be the best taking risk into consideration and which one is the worst taking risk into consideration? Thank you. Dennis an old Sprott Growth Fund holder.

Q: What comments do you have about KBWD - Invesco KBW High Dividend Yield Financial ETF? On the surface this Powershares US ETF seems too good to be true with an average dividend of 9% and share price growth from $12.00 USD since inception in December 2010 to a current price of $23.34 USD on July 3rd with a 200 day MA of 22.46. Other than a 25% correction in early 2016, the share price growth has been steadily upward since inception. It has a very high MER of 2.4% but the PE ratio is 9.1, PB ratio 1.04 and beta is 0.754. Are there any reasons to avoid this ETF?

Q: I am looking for a US dollar denominated ETF with a good yield and covering mostly large, stable companies. I was considering SPYV (I like the P/E, yield and expense ratio here) or DVY. Could I have your opinion on these choices? Do you have other suggestions?
