Q: Hi,

I recently opened an RESP account for my daughter and am looking for advice on a few ETFs to purchase that provide some long term growth potential, while being appropriately diversified.

Given that i an just starting to save in this account, I'm starting from a small balance, roughly $2,000, i would prefer to only purchase a couple ETFs to limit transaction costs. I have a relatively long time horizon (18 years).

Thanks

Q: Someone suggest XAW (iShares Core MSCI All Country World ex Canada Index ETF ) for 50% of the investment portfolio. This ETF includes 54% US stock and the remaining in International stock excluding Canada. In your opinion, for a large investment amount, will one single ETF work well for the investors? If not, what other ETF should be added to benefit from the better US economy? Please comment and suggest.
