Q: I intend to increase the "very safe part" of my portfolios with fixed income ETFs, is a mix of corporate and government bond ETF a good choice with this objective or any other suggestion ? I suppose that longer term bond ETF would be more risky if rates do increase ?

Q: You recently responded to a question regarding Lightspeed: "We don't typically get scared off by stock strength, and that would be the case today. We might do a partial position as it is not going to be a one way up move for this stock."

My question is: Given your theoretical perspective of NOT averaging down, what would be the point of buying an initial partial position? It seems to me that you may as well just purchase your whole position right at the start rather than holding back for a later purchase (always at a higher price, because you don't average down).

Am I missing something? Could you elaborate and clarify please.

Q: Hi, current in my portfolio of 13 stocks + 2 ETF I have some good performing stocks that are > 5% position, TXN is 10.3%, DIS is 8.40%, EWZS is 9.37% and ADM is 8.54%. 25% of my holdings are in TECH (3 stocks + 1 etf). Do you feel comfortable with keeping these stocks with current positions or could I trim it to reduce risk ? I don't have many exposure to financials and consumer cyclical sectors. Can you suggest me growth stocks in these 2 sectors in US and CAN ? In healthcare I have only ABBV, I would like to have other good options here for growth and medium risk. I have +20 years horizon.

Q: Hi Peter and Team,
Over the last 5 years, HHL's price dropped by just under 30% although its underlying stocks had appreciated over the same time period. I just can't wrap my head around this and would you please comment on how this is possible.
Also which one would be your choice for a full position HHL vs LIFE?
Regards,
