Q: This is a question about composition of a rrif. I am 77: as I age I can no longer rationally think of long term holdings ie 10 years. In your opinion would it be wiser to shift to ETFs . I probably have enough saved to last my twilight years. I prefer the clarity of stocks but I would also prefer to be ten years younger.
Thanks for your wisdom

Q: ATZ, DND, TIXT, WN.PR.D Gentlemen: The above four securities have been very disappointing for me. I have held them for some time with little change. I could hold them longer, as they are in my RIF, but I wonder if the funds might do better elsewhere.

Q: Hi there,

The majority of my portfolio is held in XEQT. If I wanted to increase US exposure from 45% to 60%, in your opinion would to be best to layer in a hedged or unhedged US etf, considering XEQT already holds unhedged US exposure?

Thanks!
