Q: The US versions of these ETFs have high yields. I am selling some of my more volatile RRSP holdings and want to move the funds into ETFs that add stability and a return of 8-10% with dividend/growth. Are these ETF's considered relatively stable. and is there a point that they should be considered less stable, for example, if interest rates rise. The Cdn equiv show no dividend. Is there a reason for this?

Q: I’ve always had less than positive results investing in the healthcare sector. Finally I decided to go with an ETF (XHC) to do away with the individual stock picking risk which has since declined as well. I am now thinking of sticking with “healthcare adjacent” companies since SIS (currently owned) has done well for me. Can you please comment on SIA, CSH, and AND, the first two have run up a bit recently and I wonder about their valuations and future prospects. Any other candidates that might fit the bill you could recommend, I know choices in Canada are slim?

Is this the reason for the large move? It does not seem to be related to copper as CS and TECK are essentially unchanged. Why would this type of move cause such a move? Perhaps there is another reason. Thanks.
