Q: My TFSA is all in Can $. I have $12000.00 to add this year, so would like your opinion, on the US Tech sector, or the US Bank sector.
I would buy a ETF. At this time would you go hedged or unhedged?
Thanks for your continued support.

Q: Hi Team,

I hold MFC in my kids RESP. It's up over 75% since I bought it many years ago. It represents 50% of the portfolio now, (enb, fts and bce are the other stocks). I want to switch some things around and add a bit of growth, but with the interest rates rising should I leave it alone ... or do you think a lot of those potential gains from rising rates have already happened?

What would a couple growth ideas be for a 10 year horizon in an RESP?

Thanks!

Q: Like most people, I'm down in the energy sector and not seeing much hope on the horizon. I hold VET, TOU and RRX. With VET I at least have a good dividend while I wait for a recovery but with TOU and RRX there is no dividend. Perhaps you think the other 2 will "bounce back" faster when there is a recovery and are worth holding anyway?

I'm inclined to keep 5% of my portfolio in energy but sell TOU and RRX and put the funds into VET or another dividend producing stock while I wait for the energy sector to recover. Does this seem like a good plan? Would having my energy funds in US companies be better?

If I do this change, do you have suggestions for Canadian or US dividend producing energy stocks? Thanks.

Q: I have US$ in my RIF that I would like to invest defensively given general high valuations and the potential for a correction. Would VIG and VIGI be good choices or would you have other suggestions. Thanks for the help. Doug
