Q: I have a GIC maturing shortly in my RIF. Would like to keep the funds in some type of income/reasonably secure investment, but am having trouble accepting current GIC rates. I have been looking at ZAG, but admit that PAYM has also caught my eye. Could you compare these two and comment on your preference and why (other suggestions are welcome). Also, any comment on where interest rates might be heading over the next or so.

Thank-you

Q: ZAG is only 3 % of my investment portfolio. I am wondering if I should add more or sell and use the money to increase the weight in the other ETFs I owned. I have been in a loss position for a while and just wonder if I should continue to hold it. This is the only income ETF that I own and is inside my RRIF.

Thanks

Q: What will be the impact of the Bank of Canada's likely rate cut from 2.75% to 2% on the ZAG or XBB ETFs?
Is it better to simply buy bonds directly rather than ETFs?
