Q: I am looking to invest in ETF's that are in the Articifical Intelligence and Robotic areas that trade on the Canadian exchange. Horizon has Mind for AI and Rbot for the Robotics but the average daily volumes are very small. Can you recommend any other ETF's I could consider. Thank you

Q: I have recently retired and am pondering investment options. Your answer to the question from Brian on Feb. 6 piqued my interest:
"you may find it advantageous to have more Canadian dividends, if you can utilize the dividend tax credit to its full advantage (you can earn about $48,000 tax free if your ONLY income is Canadian dividends".
Could you expand/explain more thoroughly about tax free dividend income? Thanks, Larry

Q: Hello,

When will your next ETF Recommend List be updated? I'm a subscriber of this service and in the middle of planning my investment strategy. Are you envisioning any major differences from the one published in Nov 2018?

Q: Hi,
I’m looking at a long term (30 year) rrsp portfolio. What do you think of making it up of these 4 etfs? Do you think long term it’s better to have the hedged or unhedged versions (where applicable)? I’m thinking 25%vfv, 25%vef, 20%xqq and 20%vdy. Then 10% in cash for buying dips when I see them. I’ll also be using any drips (even proxy drips if needed) as well as adding new funds every 3-6 months and rebalancing annually (unless there’s some major movement before that). Do you see any areas that are too redundant or underrepresented?

Thanks
