Investment Q&A

Q: Bond funds vs laddering of GICs.

The way I see it , the only time a bond fund MAY beat laddering is in a declining interest rate environment. I entered a number of bond funds { including from ETF newsletter } on the G & M watch list and see none of them even gained 3% over the past year. Predicting the direction of interest rates is futile at best. Other than for liquidity reasons please try and sell me on why bond funds should be purchased. Do you know of any study over the past 40 or so years that compared bond funds to laddering.

Thank you

Q: I’ve been holding BYD for a long long time and just again moved into the black and am positive on it by a few percent. I was stopped out of CLS at 150 and have not owned it since. My thought was sell Boyd and by Celestica what do you think of that trade?

In 5 years will I be happy I did it?

Please consider the trade on its own. Portfolio mix is fine

Q: Can you comment on the earnings of Golconda Gold Ltd? I own it and I'm up on the stock but to be honest I have no clue if it's really a well run company and it's future prospects. Any big players like SPROTT or others that have an interest in this company? Do you say buy, hold or sell and if so why?
