Q: I own ZWH at present in a registered account. Is there any advantage to adding XDU (hedged or unhedged) for diversification? I am also looking at ZWU as a possible addition. Thank you.

Q: What ETF or method would you recommend for an investor who wants to hold some gold (bullion, not the miners), unhedged to the Canadian dollar and with good liquidity. I have heard so many gold bugs talk about the importance of investing in “physical” gold as opposed to “paper” gold. Do you believe this thesis of “physical” gold and does GLD (US) meet this requirement?

Q: Good morning 5i
Thank you for the new website. Its great.
I bought VXUS... thank you. I am well diversified with equities and will have some Canadian dollars to spend after I shave some of my winners (which there are many..thank you) in my RRIF. What would you suggest in the form of an ETF? Europe? Japan UK Australia??? etc??? VXUS being international may cause an overlap but perhaps there is one area that you are particularily in favour of?? Do you expect more growth in the near to medium term (3 to 5 years) in any of these areas? Or should I plan this as a long term (5 to 10 year) investment. Thank you for your timely and priceless answers.

Q: I'm increasing some sector weightings in my RRIF portfolio, and wish to use up some US$. Could you suggest a couple of industrial names - and perhaps an industrial ETF? Thanks, Roland
