Q: I would appreciate your guidance on investing available cash in my portfolio. I recently sold my NVIDIA holdings, and as a result, approximately 50% of my RRIF investments are currently in cash, and about 5% of my non-registered (open) investment accounts are also in cash. I currently hold VFV, VGRO and XIC in my open account along with approximately 20 equities. I do not currently hold any ETFs in my RRIF account. My objective is to fully invest this cash before the end of 2025. I would appreciate your recommendations on the following:
• Top five investment ideas (ETFs and equities) suitable for my RRIF account, and
• Top five investment ideas (ETFs and equities) suitable for my non-registered (open) account,
with the following parameters in mind:
• Investment horizon: 5 to 10 years
• Risk profile: Moderate
Thank you in advance for your assistance. I value your research and look forward to your recommendations. Best wishes to you and your team for the Holiday Season, and warm regards for a healthy and prosperous New Year.
