In which order would you sell the above? and I assume you would not buy any of them back at this point in time?

Q: I want to take advantage of capital gains in bonds that I expect to occur as rates decline but I am unsure whether I will get that benefit with an ETF like XBB as much as with individual bonds. Can you tell me how that works with the etf? I assume as they buy new bonds at to replace their maturing ones, that will take away the capital gains advantage as they buy them at par in the higher rate market.

Q: Good Day,

I hold TD and RY in my RRIF and was thinking of switching one for BNS for a higher yield and the "buy the poorest

performing bank" theory. Is this a logical approach and which would you switch.

Thanks Tom

Q: My wife took early retirement with DB plan. Her RRSP and TFSA are well diversified. She has enough money to invest in about 10 companies. This money is not needed in foreseeable future. However, a small dividend is appreciated along with capital appreciation. It will be invested in a regular account. Can you please suggest top 12 companies.

Thanks inadvance

Q: According to Dale Jackson on BNN Bloomberg today, it's a good idea to withdraw loose cash from the TFSA account before year end in order to add the amount to next year's contribution? Please explain because I don't see how moving cash out to put it back would be interesting.

Thanks

Q: Hi,
I see HSAV managers have suspended it's subscriptions and recommends not buying shares. Here's a quote from their website.
"... investors should note that during a period of suspended subscriptions, the Manager expects shares of HSAV to trade at a premium to its NAV per share.
Due to this expected premium, Horizons ETFs is strongly discouraging purchases of shares of HSAV during this suspension of subscriptions."
Can you explain why they're making this recommendation, the risks in buying shares now and do you still recommend buying HSAV shares to park cash in a non-registered account?
Thanks.
