Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi team,
Cryptocurrencies seem to be gaining support. Not sure that I am ready to jump in and buy any bitcoin but thinking about perhaps a small position in perhaps an ETF.
Would be interested in your thoughts on this area and would you look at the cryptocurrency space, or is looking at the blockchain technology a better way to play this sector.
Can you recommend some ETFs in this area.

Your advice is much appreciated

Q: I hold HEDJ in a non-registered account. At date of purchase some ten years ago, I thought protecting against weakness in the Euro would be prudent. Would you agree that there is no need at present to hedge as above? It would not be tax efficient for me to sell HEDJ and buy an unhedged version so I would rather add to exposure to Europe.
Question: What ETF of stocks of companies based in developed Europe ex-UK do you favor? Is an unhedged version of HEDJ, in US$ (not C$) available? What other r ETFs , in US$ and not hedged, look attractive to you? I prefer ETFs holding less than, say, 70 large caps, incl'g some multi-nationals, all based out of Europe.
