Q: Hello 5i,
When using the ETF Sector Balancing Tool for the Bond ETF's I just put in another category of Fixed Income instead of trying to break out Corporate bonds as well as Government bonds. Does this appear to be a correct procedure? Also does it matter if ETF's are International, European, Canadian or US or just use the sectors as if there was no geographical difference?
thank you

Q: Hello,

Further to NFIs press release that they are doubling buybacks, did they actually do that..Or was that a gimmick to aid stock prices?
On another note I read a Charlie munger quote on risk "Using a stocks volatility as a measure of risk is nots. Risk to us is 1. Risk of permanent loss of capital 2. Risk of inadequate return " . I think this is a very powerful concept. It also made me wonder how for example a stock like TSGI rates in terms of risk based on the above 2 criteria.

Thanks.

Q: My wife and I are 66 years old. We each have a TFSA which we are trying to maximize. These would be the last two accounts we would ever take money out of. Our children are the beneficiaries so these are long term accounts - hopefully! We each have RRSPs and share a non-registered account we use for income. We don't have any fixed income but do have enough cash to last us 3 years. No pensions, but are quite diversified in a number of blue chip stocks.

Between the two of us we have PHO, SIS, TOY, BNS, TSGI. None of which has been very good lately but we are patient. We have enough money for two more positions, and think it would be prudent to add two, more stable, names. OTEX, BOYD, GC ? Suggestions?
THANK YOU !
