Q: In my Qtrade account, under history, I get the entry "RTN OF CAP" every few months on equites such as VUN (an ETF). Can you tell me what this signifies? There is no cash or share values under the same entry.
Q: Hi,
I recently opened an RESP account for my daughter and am looking for advice on a few ETFs to purchase that provide some long term growth potential, while being appropriately diversified.
Given that i an just starting to save in this account, I'm starting from a small balance, roughly $2,000, i would prefer to only purchase a couple ETFs to limit transaction costs. I have a relatively long time horizon (18 years).
Thanks

Q: What US ETFs would you recommend for growth at reasonable risk? I own most of the stocks in your balanced portfolio but about a third of my portfolio is in US$. Not knowing enough about US stocks I think I would probably do better to sell most of them and buy ETFs. I already own XHE.
Q: Someone suggest XAW (iShares Core MSCI All Country World ex Canada Index ETF ) for 50% of the investment portfolio. This ETF includes 54% US stock and the remaining in International stock excluding Canada. In your opinion, for a large investment amount, will one single ETF work well for the investors? If not, what other ETF should be added to benefit from the better US economy? Please comment and suggest.

Q: I have a lot of bank stocks that I have been accumulated with the dividend
reinvestment plan over the last 30 years. I do not want to sell them because it would trigger a large capital gain, besides it is adding up to a lot of dividends, with I will use in my retirement. Yes, Yes I know that I am overweight in that sector. I want to protect myself on a down turn, and don't pike the puts , because the premiums are so high.I was thinking about the huv etf, I don't fully understand it, is there "time decay" as there is with leveraged etfs.Do you think that this product will suite my goals, and or do you have any other idea's that would protect me on the downside?
thank-you and have a nice day

Q: Hi 5i team,
I have a 3 month old son and have opened him up an RESP. Can I get your opinion on what 2-3 stocks you would invest in that provide decent income (in the form of a dividend), and are relatively safe knowing that he will need the money in 18 years. I was thinking of playing it more conservative, but I have been contemplating taking a shot at something with a good growth potential.
Thanks so much.

Q: I have held a small position in MNT since 2010. It was suppose to be a little diversification and hopefully protection if the market currencies took a bad dive.
It has not performed well with gold going up. Could you advise why it may be lagging? Is it currency cross winds? Something else?
Keep up the great unbiased work.

Q: Happy Weekend!
Having just read CBC's article about electricity and with electric car sales growing, could you suggest the names of companies that provide transformers and other equipment to electricity providers? Are there any companies you would recommend that would benefit from the growth of the electric car industry? Thanks.

Q: Hi 5I- Have just received lump sum retiring allowance and now 30% cash. Present holdings are 18%GGF31222-10%VUN-7%XEF-7%ZGI-6%SLF-6%VXC-5%ZUH-4%IYT-3%XEH-3%ATD-2%DIS.
