Q: Thank you for those useful articles on all-in-one ETFs. I plan to gradually invest this way​ to make life easier on myself or whoever may be doing the investments in the future.
The problem (and it's not a big one ​as it just needs a bit of math). To have a position of 50%​/50% ​Equities/Bonds I need to have an 80% position in a 40/60 E​quity/B​ond ETF and a 20% position in a 80/20 E​quity/B​ond ETF.

​Is there an all in one 50/50 ETF with a reasonable MER?
​Alternatively, are there similar diverse all-in-one​ 100% equity and diverse all-in-one ​100% bond ETFs where we could just have one of each then rebalanced every 6 to 12 months back holding 50% of total each​? (Makes the math really simple :)

Though I don't tend to use timing​, is there a time of year long term where that rebalance might offer a​ percent​ or fraction of a percent advantage?​ For example, do bonds trade higher or lower at certain times of the year? Similarly equities?

Q: Your comments please about this fund for global bond exposure in a diversified portfolio. Are there any ETF's that would be similar in scope and performance.
Thanks, Brian

Q: Could you suggest a global bond ETF in Canadian dollars? Thanks
