Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Is it time to start letting go of these long term bond ETF? Or do you see a role as part of a laddered portfolio? If so, what percentage of these long term bond holdings would you suggest at this point? Unless we have negative rates the only way is up? Not sure I believe that rates will be kept so low for much longer.
Thank-you.

Q: 2 questions: Take as many points as needed

I own VFV in all my accounts, RRSP, TFSA, Margin. It is my biggest overall holding. I know you like IWO, so I'm wondering if it would make sense to sell VFV and buy IWO, just in my TFSA account for more growth. Do you see IWO outperforming VFV? What would make it underperform?

Also, I own BFAM through your recommendation in Investor Suite. Do you see this stock doing really well if the world gets back to normal, and people need more child care services?

Thank you for all that you do.

Q: Peter, Thanks to you and your team for excellent service. I took a large position in SCR when it was trading at 75 cents and sold half when it doubled a few weeks later. Now that my remaining shares are up 440%, I'm starting to wonder about potential price targets and whether to trim more here. With the forthcoming US listing and share consolidation, I'm inclined to hold on. I would appreciate any thoughts on the prospects of the company and the esports sector going forward, when you bracket out all the current hype. I didn't really think of it as a long position at the time, but bought a basket of esports stocks like BRAG and EGLX that have all done well.
