Q: I am all equities in my RSP and RIF portfolio. Although a solid blue chip list of Cdn, US, some international, I would like to mitigate risk by adding one or two bond etf's (cdn dollar). These can be Canadian bonds or a combination NA and global. Please offer one or two...and are we looking at shorter duration or longer in light of current interest rate environment/future outlook. Ideally 4%+ yield

Q: I know you don't like selling winners, but I am concerned about a bust following the AI boom which would devastate technology stocks (and the whole market). Nevertheless, I am thinking of selling some winners in my RRIF, AVGO and QCOM, to invest in BND, which would bring my bond allocation up to 10% weight. I have been retired for 15 years and live on the dividends from my portfolio. The growth in dividends has more than offset inflation and my portfolio income is more than enough for my lifestyle, so I have never seen the need for a higher bond weighting until now. Would this be a good move? Or do you think I being too fearful and should stay the course with my technology investments (currently 27% of my portfolio)?

Q: What are your thoughts on the prospects of this ETF?
Is it worth holding? What other suggestions might you have?
