Q: For the fixed income portion of my US holdings would stocks like MTGE, AGNC, NLY, HTS and CMO be appropriate. They all have high yields. Or does the downside risk on their share prices when interest rates increase make this an unwise investment plan?
If so, what would make more sense?
Thank you.

Q: Symbol=VRE. Vanguard Canada FTSE CDN Capped REIT ETF. Contains 19 CDN REITs (RioCan, H&R, Calloway, Cominar, BPO, etc.). MER= 0.40%. Seems like a good way to get REIT diversity for reasonable cost. Previous 5i answers indicated that current REIT slump is due to "sector rotation" and that money may return looking for income. Would VRE be a good way to do this? Comments please. Additional words regarding Vanguard Canada ETFs also appreciated.
Thanks from IslandJohn.

Q: CPL and SVR
Hello! I own the above gold and silver bullion funds. I am somewhat confused as to whether these are considered "paper bullion" as I have read that the ETF's have been drained. I have read that bullion has been leased out 49 times, and that Comex is running out of bullion. Is this eventually going to affect my holdings? Thanks for your help on this.

Q: Hi Peter and team,
Thank you for providing good insight into this very volatile environment! I am a recent graduate into the trading game and review the Questions every day!
Now to my question: Approximately 8 months ago, I purchased CBO and XCB as part of my fixed income portfolio. Since the threat of rising interest rates, both of these have declined. I have a 5% weighting on each and wondering if I should keep these or take my losses before interest rates really do rise?
Looking forward to your response.
Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter:
In my on-RRSP portfolio, I have some money in XRE and some
Reits and the Canadian banks, BCE, and the pipelines
I still have some cash to be invested and I am looking for
a steady source of income (age around 60); for this purpose
someone give me a suggestion:
1) CPD a prefer ETF
2) XDV (it generates dividends)
3) a floating rate prefer ETF (I could not find the symbol)
4) BMO covered call utilities
5) BMO covered call banks ZWB
How would you compare to the above when I put the 5 investmensts in the
ETF XTR ? (it has bonds in it)
Thanks!

Q: Preferred share etf's such as CPD are dropping rapidly over the last few days. Are they more likely than not to continue to fall? Is it time to bail, take a loss, and invest in dividend paying common stocks instead? I have about 10% of my non-registered portfolio in Prefs. Thanks for any thoughts you may have.
Q: iShares ETF CUD-T is comprised of the "highest dividend-yielding securities of the S&P Composite 1500 Index that have increased dividends every year for at least 20 consecutive years". It is CA$ hedged. Is there a US$ ETF covering the same on the NY market?
Thanks

Q: I hold stocks in my RRSP and non-registered, but recently opened a TFSA. I feel that managing stocks in 3 account is too complicated so would like to buy some ETFs that I can rebalance once per year in my TFSA. Do you have a suggestion for an ETF portfolio that includes a mix of large cap and small cap Canadian and U.S. ?
Thanks,
Carla
