Q: Hi,
I've been holding MCR for quite awhile and am now at a 75% unrealized loss. Is there hope for this one if I continue to hold indefinitely? Or should I cut my losses.
It's a small position and I have a balanced portfolio.
Thanks,
Robert

Q: Why does FTB have such a large spread between the Actual MER (.50) and the Actual Management Expense ratio (.92)/ My financial planner is actively promoting it. I wonder if he gets some of the MER as an incentive therefore encouraging him to promote it. Its current yield is 3.4% wile CLF has a yield of 2.9% with an MER of .15 and .17. Do you have any comment on XBB, XSB, CLF, and FTB. Should I mirror the FTB portfolio of the five bond fund ETFs (CLF, XBB, PGL, ZEF, and ZHY) or buy FTB? I assume the yields are after the MER is taken.
Thank you.

Q: I am considering purchasing a $5000.00 5 year bond paying 5% per annum from Solar Share of Toronto. This bond is RSP eligible. Is this a reasonably safe fixed income investment? I have other blue chip stocks in my RSP. I will not need this money for many years.
Is there a tax efficient way to purchase the bond with existing RSP funds? I would like to avoid withdrawal fees from TD, the bank that holds the RSP.
Thanks, Brenda

Q: A question about using currency ETFs to play an appreciation or depreciation of the Can. dollar against the U.S. dollar confused me. Would I not do better just holding the currency I thought would be stronger. Doesn't either ETF come with fees I could avoid by just holding the respective currency?
