Q: Given today's market and the expectation of a US rate hike, could you identify 5 ETF's that you would be comfortable with to provide safety of principal and income. Thanks.

Q: I am thinking about parking some cash in one or both of these ETF's (perhaps a 50/50 split) for the next 12 months. I understand that rate increases could adversely impact the unit price but given that rates are not expected to increase in Canada anytime soon and these are Canadian corporate bond funds not American would there be any impact from a US rate hike? If so, why? Secondly, what do you think of the downside risk and is there a better option you would suggest.
Thank you

Q: Peter and team,
I have about 18K to invest in my daughters RESP which will be required in the following two years, and about 24K to invest in a non reg account for her to use in around two to six years timeframe. This is not money I can afford to loose so I need to invest it carefully. Some say I should be keeping it in a GIC due to the timeframe, however that will not even keep up with the cost of living.
Any suggestions please?
