Q: Good afternoon - the recent runup in equities has me looking to re-balance and add more bond exposure. I currently have positions in XLB, XBB and HYG. Can you suggest bond positions ( likely ETF's) in Canada and the US, please? Just add to the existing Canadian positions? What about HYG? Time to move?
Many thanks

Q: I'm trying to find reasons not to buy a little taste of this. With all of the oockroaches etc hiding here, what are the odds of a takeover? Would another company step in here and purchase and if so, what could a projected sale price look like? At what point does the risk/reward make sense if a buyout is unlikely?
My thought is that if the company/governance is terrible but the business is excellent there has to be a price that makes sense but admittedly I am just looking for a reason to do it!

Q: Hello 5i
I wonder whether you could provide some clarity on the question of sectors. According to 5i my sectors are out of whack. But, I am not buying real estate because I consider my house to represent that. My financials don't include any banks but BrK.B, CSU, etc. and it is overweight. But, I don't really see these companies as primary financial companies. Anything that you could add to this that would clarify the situation? Also, I was wondering whether you break down eft's into sectors or stocks on your portfolio tracking and analysis tool?
thanks

Q: Explain to me, when you tell a client to take a half of a position, how does that work? Say you want to invest $10,000 in a stock, do you buy $5000 say today and than what do you do? Buy the remainder when the stock goes down, or when the stock has gone up.
Thanks Again

Q: Should I hedge my EAFE ETFs considering that their holdings are from multiple countries? I am considering either XEF or ZDM? they seem pretty much the same except one hedges to CAD and one does not.
Q: Many updates since the last review of this company. With new shares being issued at $4.75 I would hope this provides a level of support, but not sure I should be holding hoping to see results vs selling now after a nice run and waiting for the results first and then reinvesting.
Q: Ignoring portfolio weightings, Can you give some advice on when to sell your winners? For example MFC has had a nice run. It seems fully valued. I am an income investor and am consider shifting to SLF for no other reason than the pick up in yield. There are other ‘winners’ I have that appear to be fully valued and I could shift elsewhere to boost income. What are the right things to consider re timing on when to sell?

Q: What are your recommended non-Canadian equity ETFs?
Do you prefer US only ETFs, or worldwide non-Canadian ETFs, for a long term hold?
Is it more likely that US equities will outperform non-US, such as Europe and Japan, or is it too hard to tell?
