Q: I am looking at increasing my international exposure by purchasing ZDH or ZDI. Have some confusion about withholding tax. From prior question relating to withholding tax that someone else had your reply referred to layers of taxation. ZDH basically just holds ZDI. If ZDI pays withholding tax from international investments and pays dividends in Can$ then what would be the benefit of purchasing ZDH over ZDI as tax is already withheld and both pay in Can$?

Q: 2 questions - please deduct as many points as needed.
Q1 - according to Portfolio Analytics, I need to increase my fixed income allocation by $90k. I own 4% positions in XBB, ZIC & PMO005 and 2.6% in CPD. Would you recommend adding to one of these or would you suggest adding another ETF?
Q2 - I need to add $125k to International exposure. Current international holdings include XAW, XMI & XEC at just over 2%. Should i add to anyone of these or add something else?

Q: Hi,

Just curious about this Company with the announcement of the FOX tie up, which I believe you had mused about last year, a media company at least. Currently they only have sports betting in NJ, I believe. They could set up in Nevada, WV and PA with their partnership with Eldorado and Mount Airy. Any reason why they elected to wait? Additionally I don't think they have a licence in PA for betting. Is the stock valuation suffering as a result of the time it has taken to get sports betting to market or are there other variables? I cannot agree that the financing of the purchase of sky bet and william hill were not telegraphed and are the reason for the fall from the heights.

Thoughts?
