Q: If you were going to build my bond portion (40% +/-) portion of my portfolio using ETFs, how would you build that? Is there one ETF that provides a broad mix of corporate / municipal / provincial / federal, a broad laddering of periods, a mix of risk, a mix of regions, etc? Or would you build it using multiple ETFs that specialize in specific products?

Q: We have held VIG in our RRSP/RRIF accounts for about five years and are happy with the performance. It is now around 7% weighting (I know you are ok with larger ETF weightings vs individual stocks) but I'm thinking of reducing it by about 25% to bolster our underweight fixed income holdings and also to hedge against possible market downturn. My only other fixed income holdings are TLT and a couple of short term GICs. Does this switch make sense and if so what short term bond fund would you recommend if I were to make this move? Thanks for the continuing great service.
