Q: VCB currently has a yield to maturity of 5.4%. I am thinking this would make the ETF a buy now given the future "bump" in NAV from maturing bonds with a high face value versus market value. Am I correct?

Q: I've been working with your Portfolio Tracking tool, which is absolutely great, and it's telling me I should hold more bonds. Okay, that's clear enough, but what I'm unclear about is the number of Bonds (ETFs) I should hold. I know it's not really your thing, but is there a recommended bond portfolio you would recommend (for someone about to retire)? Also how important is it to hold international bonds VS only Canadian ETFs? Any advice is truly appreciated. Thanks as always for all your great work!
