Q: I would like to hedge my US Investments from a falling US dollar. I have USD cash to deploy and I am looking at IGOV the IShares International Treasury Bond ETF and BWX the SPDR Bloomberg International Treasury Bond ETF. What do you think of these ETF's as hedges to the USD, and do you have any alternative solutions? Thank you for your assistance.

Q: I am holding some cash on the sides. I was wondering if there was a way to put some of it into an ETF, perhaps a money market fund that holds foreign (non US) currency. Either a basket of stable currencies or something like the Euro or Swiss Franc. The idea is risk avoidance against a sudden sharp drop in the CDN dollar (and perhaps US$ too) given the current situation. I already hold several ETFs that hold Euro stocks but would like lower risk.
