Q: Wondering what your favourite/safest High Interest savings ETF would be to park cash for a few months or maybe a little longer.
Are there any risks associated with these ETFs?
I note for CASH, todays price is 2% greater then the 200 day moving average. Can these drop in value?
CASH management fee is .11%-is this high?
Why are the distributions variable on a monthly basis?

Thanks
Jeff

Q: As i get older i am always thinking about reducing risk in a reasonable way. I have about 2 per cent of my portfolio in pbh. I know it is a smaller company and i have been thinking about taking a cap gain hit to transfer to atd. I was wondering how you would compare these two, rather than by size alone
Thanks as always

Q: Retired investor with a long term view. I will need to take some money from that account for living expenses. Holding both stocks sitting at a 4% weighting in a taxable account with 180-300% profit. Industrials are my largest holdings. I would like to take one down to 3% and reap some profit on the way. Which would you sell first or would you scrape a little bit of both?
Thank you for your invaluable service.

Q: For the High interest savings etf's listed, which has the best net yield (or if another has a better yield that is not listed please let me know)?
With the HSAV product not paying a distribution, how do you find its yield? (In an answer to a previous question recently, it had the highest gross yield at that time of 5.25%)

And lastly, for funds held within a corporation, what would be the best tax advantaged way to go (pay tax on the dividend or the capital gain on HSAV)?

Thanks very much,
