Q: Are etfs the best way to incorporate a Japan exposure into one's portfolio? If so, which do you recommend as the best combination of dividend/growth? Thanks.

Q: I would appreciate your high level thoughts regarding investing in Japan.
Many strategist are suggesting that Japan might start increasing their very low interest rates which would spur interest in their own countries stock market which seems to be flat for a very long time. Do you think there is a good chance this might happen? I also thought the Japanese elevated age doesn't bode well for their economy which makes their stock market less attractive. I would appreciate your view point on Japan's investability for the long term. If yes, would you buy a hedged or non hedged Japanese ETF to get exposure?

Q: On March 9, 2022 Kim Bolton was on BNN Market Call discussing a past pick, Sony, bought on the ADR. He recommended Sony on March 31, 2021. The pick was down 8%. A one year chart shows Sony up 76%. Is the majority of the difference due to the exchange rate? If so, is the exchange rate likely to continue in this direction? If so, it might not be advisable to buy on the ADR at this time? Your opinion please.
Thank you for the great service!
