Q: Hello again gurus!

I am interested in increasing my US holdings.

I presently hold the Vanguard Total Market and like its very low MER. I intend to add to my US holdings. What is your opinion of the BMO's ZWH?

Would you suggest that I simply add to my Vanguard Total Market Fund or put my new money into something like ZWH which, while it has a higher MER, also has a higher dividend?

Either way, I intend to buy and hold the ETF's.

Thanks.

Q: John Embry wrote an article for the Daily Buy Sell Advisor (Investors' Digest) yesterday which was quite disturbing. It concerned the massive short selling of gold & silver and the exposure of banks, especially the Deutsche Bank to derivatives. Deutsche Bank is reported to have exposure to derivatives exceeding the entire world's GDP. I have concern for the world's financial system. Can you provide either further insight or guidance?

Q: Greetings all. I'm looking to add some U.S. Growth stocks to take advantage of their recovering economy and to diversify against possible continued weakness in our own over the next few years. I understand you don't cover the U.S. here, but are there any companies that your team is excited about in terms of growth stocks in a couple of the higher weight sectors? Thanks very much.

Q: Prefs make up about 5% of my holdings. Most are solid, however
I am underwater on CSE.PR.A and AZP.PR.A and am looking at selling to offset gains elsewhere.
Could you make a suggestion(s) as to a good and somewhat similar home for the proceeds?
I was thinking about CSE and/or AQN. ( My feeling is CSE is a a bit of a dice roll on a deal getting done)
I hold BEP.UN in a registered account, but am light on utilities otherwise.
Thank You.

Q: This is a comment on Joe technique for currency conversion. Last time I called TD discount broker to do a similar transaction, I was told that security regulation wouldn't allow me to own two positions one short and the other one long for the same security. The trade could be cancelled if I do it. Don't know if this is a security regulation or TD regulation?
