Q: Could you please add FGRO ETF to your database.
I understood these 5 ETF's would have similar price performance but FGRO and TGRO outpace the other three for the last 3 Years. ZGRO, XGRO and VGRO pretty much have the same performance. Can you help explain why FGRO and TGRO have significantly outperformed the three?

Q: As a 50 year old with a defined benefits pension, to kick in when I retire in about 5 years, would ZGRO be ok, switching to ZBAL over the years?
Is the only difference between ZGRO and ZBAL the allocation between equities and bonds?
Thanks,
Robert

Q: Hi
I put ZGRO in my non-registered account knowing that it had US and foreign underlying stocks but Google Finance was showing that it had no dividend, which makes sense for a growth stock. But once I bought it, I see that it has a small divvy. I'm not too concerned with the tax consequences but I suppose it should have been better to place this in an RRSP?
Thanks

Q: I have these ETF's in a TFSA with a primary goal 8 to 10% annual return. I'd like your opinion if there is overlap in this portfolio and if there would be another ETF to add. This is a smaller portfolio and I don't think it would be efficient to buy the individual stocks in your balanced equity model portfolio.
Thanks!
