Investment Q&A

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

Q: Almost 80% of the holdings in MCHI are HK-listed companies. Given China’s overly aggressive moves in HK, would you consider Chinese companies listed in HK to be at a higher risk than they have been in the past? I am comfortable adding to the Chinese tech ETF CQQQ.us, but I wonder about the companies held in MCHI.

I would love to know your opinion on the above with a bit of detail.

Why China is grouped with ÉM is unfathomable to me. In your own way of thinking about allocation, do you mentally remove China from the ÉM basket? It seems long overdue for both the political and investment worlds to treat her as developed.

Q: Hello,

Can I get a couple of your recommendations for the best balanced growth ETF and/or mutual fund as well as a pure growth recommendation. Sector & Geographic allocation not a huge concern.

Thanks.

Q: If an investor is expecting a potential 10% market pullback in the coming weeks and they want to "partially" hedge their portfolio without selling or shorting their holdings, what percentage of an inverse ETF like PSQ would you recommend holding versus the value of their long position? In other words, in a $1,500,000 portfolio, what dollar amount would you hold in PSQ shares? Thank you!!

Q: Dear 5i,

I am considering purchasing either PGF860 or PGF260 for my RIF and TFSA accounts.
Morningstar describes both as Global Small/Mid/Cap equity mutual funds but, PGF860 appears to have much fewer holdings. May I please have your thoughts on these two funds and whether they might be good considerations for my two different accounts. Might one be better suited for each account?
Thanks for the terrific service!

Q: If I buy:
ZWC ((BMO CDN HIGH DIV COV ETF) for Canadian exposure and income,
ZWS (BMO US HIGH DIV COVER ETF) for US exposure and income, and
ZWE (BMO EUROPE HI DIV COVER CALL HEDGED CAD) for European exposure and income,

that will give me about 7%+ income and exposure to about 120 very decent world wide companies. As a retiree, would I need to do anything else?
