Q: My question is 2 part.
I am a long term investor, ok with risk and fluctuations and no need for the cash anytime soon.
Ive read a few of your comments regarding some hesitation towards emerging markets. Would you sell out of VEE or do you see it doing something positive soon?
What do you think about buying into one of the trillion dollar companies now? I was hoping for a dip on Amazon, but that doesnt seem likely to happen. Do you have a favorite? Would you reccomend using the proceeds from VEE to do this or keeping VEE and using new money?

iShares Core MSCI Emerging Markets IMI Index ETF (XEC)
-
Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets All Cap Index ETF (VEE)
Q: What is the difference between these two ETFS? I own XEC but noticed that VEE has a much higher dividend. Would it be worth swapping as I do like getting income while I wait for growth.
Q: Hi, I have 10% of my portfolio in USD in a non registered margin account. What would be a good strategy to invest this money? The other 90% of my port is in CAD dollars spread between rrsp(balanced), tfsa(growth) and non registered(dividend).

Q: Hi 5i,
I am interested in purchasing the Vanguard Global Active ETF's, VLQ, VMO, VVO and VVL but, I am concerned with the low average trading volumes. I calculated the average daily trading volumes to range between approx. 500 [VLQ] to 5,000 shares[VVL]. I would like to purchase/sell at least 100 shares at a time to justify the 9.95 commission. Will I likely be influencing the stock price because of the low volumes? Is the Vanguard Canada published Premium/Discount data for these ETF's in line with most commonly traded ETF's?
Thanks

Global X S&P 500 Index Corporate Class ETF (HXS)
-
Global X Canadian High Dividend Index Corporate Class ETF (HXH)
Q: What are you thoughts on swap or synthetic etfs? I have a basic understanding of how they work, and they seem like a good thing to pop in a non-registered account after RRSPs and TFSAs are maxed out. What do you guys think?
Q: Hello 5i team,
Which passive lowest cost ETF would you recommend to proxy the following investments: S&P/TSX, S&P500, MSCI EAFE, MSCI Emerging markets, Canadian bond market, US bond market, US High yield debt, Emerging market debt?
What weightings would recommend for the average 54 year old among the previously mentioned ETFs?
Which 3 Canadian growth companies would you recommend to add, to spice it up?
Thank you for your collaboration, Eric

BMO Europe High Dividend Covered Call Hedged to CAD ETF (ZWE)

BMO Low Volatility Canadian Equity ETF (ZLB)
-
BMO US High Dividend Covered Call ETF (ZWH)
Q: Folks can you recommend one or a few ETFs that trade in US dollars that would compare with the ETFs listed. I want to put some US cash into lower beta equities and strategies and am thinking that the ETF fees may be worthwhile to gain the covered call approach and enhanced income that results at the additional cost of sacrificing upside in rising markets. Also any comments on this intended approach for an equity investor who is transitioning from a balanced to an income tilt is appreciated - all the best.
Q: Can you please provide your opinion regarding O. Shares Global Internet Giants, OGIG ETF. O'Leary noted he is targeting the best tech companies with this fund. Thank you,

Q: What is your opinion of PYF as a reliable source of income?
Q: On 29 Aug I asked a question, part of which was: "Do you like the idea of holding some (10%) of a portfolio in active ETFs?" I did got a sense from your answer if you favour holding some actively managed ETFs, or would you stay with low MER index ETFs? I am planning to hold as much as 50% of my portfolio in ETFs for outside Canada exposure.
Q: I would appreciate your opinion of this fund, and how does its volatility and performance compare with other technology funds. Thanks.

Q: I am aiming for 60% of my investments to be outside of Canada. I have a number of index ETFs (VFV, VA, XQQ, HXS, HXQ, VLQ, VMO) but I am wondering if I need some active ETFs. One I came across is Evolve Active Managed Core Equity ETF ( listed on TSX as CAPS) which has a solid return but higher MER at .95% plus very little information available. Are you familiar with his ETF? Do you recommend this active ETF or do you have other suggestions? Do you like the idea of holding some (10%) of a portfolio in active ETFs?
Q: Not sure if zlb should still be in my porfolio, since its underperforming. Would i be better off to just put the money in vanguard canadian index vcn if i have a longer term view of the market 20 years out.
