Q: Hello ,
I was thinking of buying TD technology leaders etf (TEC) instead of XQQ , the nasdaq 100 etf as it has performed the nasdaq and seems to be more diversified. Any comments please?
Also, I looked at the details of VUN and XUU etfs, They both seem to have similar holdings and over 5 year period both have similar performance. However , going over more than 5 years, why has VUN out performed XUU. I am not clear on this..
Regardless of the tariffs situation, the US market seems to do well over time, and hence i thought instead of total Europe exposure, go with VEQT etf. Any comments please..
Also, do you prefer unhedged products like VUN as opposed to VUS? Lastly, i use yahoo to to compare charts. Do you know a better site please? Thanks very much
Q: I am just starting my TFSA and am starting young, I am wondering what are some good long term investments in the current environment? The companies listed are what I have recently bought shares in.
Q: Hello, for a 25 year old with $ 500.00 to invest in the TFSA, which of the above would you suggest?
Also, how about for a 27 year old with $ 100K, which one(s) would you suggest? Finally, does BMO have a S&P500 unhedged?
As a quick calculation the Unedged has retuned ~ 6% more with BMO (ZQQ /ZNQ) and ~ 12% with the ishare ( XQQ/XQQU). Right?
Thanks
Carlo
Q: Hello, For both registered and unregistered accounts for say 10 years time frame, which one would you recommend ? QQQ or S&P500.? Also, would you suggest hedged or unhedged?
Thanks

Q: Are there any broad US market ETF's that I can buy in Canadian dollars that will be neutral to whether the Canadian dollar goes up or down vs the US. I am worried that if I convert too much money to USD at the current rate, it might backfire on me if our dollar somehow rallies, (which seems unlikely right now, but who knows)
Q: Could you recommend a few CAD etfs for the US market/SP500/Nasdaq that do not require to be reported on form T1135 for an unregistered account over $100K? Thanks in advance.
Q: Hello Peter and Team. I am about to open a new TFSA account with almost 100K. Time frame of 5-8 years. Could you please recommend 4-6 growth/income stocks with 1or 2 ETF’s?
I was thinking BN, VFV, EIT.UN, TVK. Any other recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks for the amazing service. Brian
Q: I'm building US content into my portfolio, and am looking for medium risk ETFs. Do you have an estimated target and a recommendation for these two ETFs? I'd like both NASDAQ and S&P 500 exposures. Is the content of ZUE and XQQ content too overlapping for the two exposures?
Q: What happened to the price on Aug 8-9 it seems to have dropped 60 some odd %. I am hoping for a share split. I have not received any notification. Thanks
Q: Not sure if you received this question before:
Pls recommend both hedged and unhedged ETF focused on US high tech and AI, which will generate about 10% yield including both dividends and capital appreciation in the first year. Thank you!
Q: I look after a RESP for my grandchildren and I have IWO, VFV, VGG, at equal weight. XIC, XQQ at a lower weight and only 2 stocks BN and LMN. Is there any more ETF that you would recommend to go with the ones I currently own? What 2 stocks would you recommend as well? The funds are not needed for 10 years,
Q: Pls. compare and contrast TXF and HTA and secondly what straight equity ETF's would have a similar tech leaders approach to their holdings?
Thank you, Hugh
Q: Good afternoon, Please recommend your 3 favourite international equity ETFs (without US holdings) and your 3 favourite US market ETFs. I already own QQQ which represents approx. 10% of my RRSP (in US dollars). Further, what are your thoughts on investing in the US market in US dollars (converted using Norbert Gambit) vs. Cnd. dollars? Is there an approach which has generated better results? Thank you.
Q: Could you please recommend two Canadian listed ETFs that track the Nasdaq 100 and do NOT pay a dividend. One should be hedged to the CAD, the other not. Thank you very much.
Q: There are a number of Canadian based NASDAQ100 and S&P500 ETF's. Which NASDAQ100 and S&P500 ETF would you prefer, or would be "best", for a TFSA account, and why? Would investing within an RRSP or in a non-registered account alter your selections and if so, why would that be? Thanks.
