Q: Hello 5i,
your portfolio analysis says that i am over 15 percent in my Canadian a;llotment and under 14 percent im my international allocation. I am thinking about addressing this at the moment and wondered whether it is a good time to do this? I would be selling Canadian and possibly US stocks to do it. if this is an opportune time to do this, should I use the above etf's or supplement them with something else? My portfolio is quite bananced. I suppose many of the stocks I own could count for international exposure, too but I don't know how to calculate that. So, the question boils down to whether this is a good time to invest internationally, where to do it, if it is and under what etf?
thanks

Q: My stock allocation for Canada and US combined is close to 90 per cent.
I’m very pleased with my portfolio growth and I have your team to thank for the advice and suggestions. In my portfolio analysis, your suggestion is for me to have 30 per cent allocated to international stocks. Since the vast majority of your advice and reports pertain to Canadian and to a lesser extent American stocks, how do I gain the expertise and suggestions having to do with international investing? Is it really a concern or can I accomplish steady growth without the full 30 percent international diversification? Thanks

Q: Emerging Markets, Developed Markets, Europe or Bonds. Which represents a buying opportunity now? Which does one need to wait for a pullpack before buying ETF in these areas?
