Q: Now that I have your model equity portfilio, US and index ETFs, I am focusing on the fixed income part of my portfolio. Truthfully, I'm a bit nervous about fixed income ETFs, as I fear they will go down as interest rates rise, so I've been hesitating to purchase. In a previous post you suggested CBO, XHY and CVD. These look like great ETFs but all seem to be corporate. I will be putting 30% of my portfolio in bonds. Would it be safe to spread it evenly among these three or should I add something with govt bond exposure? I saw VAB which seems to focus primarily on Federal and provincial bonds. If I need VAB would 25% in each of the four work? Also, should I buy it all at once or over time. If over time, how many times should I purchase over what period of time?
Thanks so much for your feedback.

Q: Free lunch! There's probably one being served for you this week or next if you're a shareholder and go between 11 and 2. This is where you want the better hotels and golf clubs for the best catering, not a convention centre, and be sure to arrive half an hour prior to the start time of the AGM, maybe schmooze with some bigwigs, too.

Our most memorable AGM yet was a few years ago where my wife and I sat cheek by jowl with Pamela Wallin and Hugh Segal to hear the colourful Ira Gluskin hold court on the state of the economy and tell anecdotes such as his Mother griping to him that she hadn't made any money on her GS shares from the time of the IPO, which he assured her she would, in time.

They not all drab and dull affairs. 'Tis the season, so enjoy your dividends.

Q: Hi Peter and Team, regarding Constellation, CSU, sorry to add yet another question here but would you please provide the estimates that you are comparing to compared to the actual results so that we can see what 'consensus was off a bit'? The estimates I get are usually different compared to what you usually provide and therefore have more faith in what you provide from your Bloomberg terminal, thanks.

This way we're all seeing actual results compared to the same estimate/consensus numbers you are comparing to. Thanks again!
