Q: Hello,
I am considering moving about 10% of my unregistered portfolio into international (developed market and emerging market) bonds.
I'd greatly appreciate your thoughts on this move -- as some are saying the bonds are even more of a potential bubble than equities -- and which specific bond ETFs you might recommend (ie: EMB for emerging markets).
As always, many thanks in advance! Aaron

Q: What do you think about replacing standard global equity etfs with similar etfs that are ESG screened? Obviously values are personal but any other considerations. Are there good options for this in Canada?

Q: In the healthcare sector I hold ABBV, BMY, MDT, AZN and CVS. Am looking to swap one out for a growth/value holding, perhaps in Industrials (maybe LMT?). Was thinking AZN would be my odd one out. Would appreciate your thoughts on best approach for long term buy and hold portfolio given the 5 holdings noted here. Thanks.

Q: Hi team,
After watching CCIV sail away into the sunset, I have to wonder what other big SPAC deals are in the works? Do you have any insights as to enable you to recommend to me an early stage SPAC that hasn't blasted off 400% yet, that a guy could possibly look at buying into for hopes of hitting a homerun? It seems every SPAC that is hitting them market is going up 2-400% so far. Who knows what CCIV will be up to if/ when the Lucid deal comes to fruitition. I know the risks of the SPAC, would be for some speculative investing. Thanks!
Shane.

Q: I have substantial holdings in the US technology sector. The only stock underwater is Unity Software. Would you continue to hold or shift the funds to one of CRWD, SE, MU or PLTR in which I have only partial positions? Which would be your second choice if I were to divide the funds?
Thank you.

Q: Now that the financing of the proposed buyout of CRH is confirmed I was expecting that WELL's stock would stabilize. Could it be that the threat of class actions on behalf of current CRH holders may have to do with the continuous fall of WELL ? Is there anything else but just profit taking on WELL after their spectacular run in 2020?
Thank you for your insight.
Yves
