Q: I've owned FIH.U for six years for a total return of 30% . Though I like their format and know a little about who they invest in I can't help to think I may do better in one of the general India ETF's . Like XID,INDA,INDY,INQQ,EPIor NFTY ..... Could 5i give me the annualized return over five years for these ETF's including FIH.U ? Also an annualized return for the last year so I can see their recent performance under the Trump influence ? ..... Does 5i have a short list of ones that you like ? { I do know that INQQ is internet only } ...... Also could 5i give me a brief synopsis of what each invests in ? ..... Thanks for your terrific service ......

Q: India does not answer the phone anymore when the Washington boy calls.

It buys cheap energy from Russia, has a young demography and a British rooted law system.

It even has a french minority among other things.

If you wanted exposure to India, witch ETF would you buy?

Q: I currently have only limited representation in my portfolio of International markets (a few ADR's and a few ETF's). In an uncertain world, I understand it is difficult to have a high degree of confidence in what economies may do well or poorly at present, however I would appreciate your best efforts!

I am interested in 3 ETF's that you believe would show growth >5% over the next 5 years; ones that would be suitable in a "balanced" portfolio verging on a "growth" portfolio. I already own VEE and XEF.

I would also appreciate 3 specific foreign publicly traded stocks (accessible to Canadians via ADR's or markets) that fit nicely in the "growth" category. I already own ING, RACE, ASML and NBIS.

Thanks very much for your insights.
