  5. XLB: Good morning - With the market rising so nicely, it's timely for me to do some re-balancing. [iShares Core Canadian Long Term Bond Index ETF]

Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Good morning - With the market rising so nicely, it's timely for me to do some re-balancing. For fixed income, I have positions I xlb, xbb and XHY. What fixed income investments do you suggest these days. I could add to the above and/or to corporate bonds, if that makes sense. But, I am nervous about the prospects for Canadian companies as the Trump tariffs take their toll. What does your crystal ball reveal? Many thanks.
