Q: I am looking to establish a 10-year bond ladder within my RRSP as part of a broader effort to balance my portfolio. At present, I’m finding that my brokerage platform (BMO InvestorLine) does not consistently provide all of the details I need to make well-informed bond purchase decisions.

Question 1:
Can you recommend reliable sources or tools that provide key bond information such as credit rating, yield to maturity, seniority, and call features for Canadian bonds?

Question 2:
Is there a bond ETF you would recommend that closely replicates the structure and cash-flow characteristics of a bond ladder, as a DIY alternative to purchasing individual bonds?

Thank you for your guidance.

Q: Practicing "let your winners run" I now find two of my stocks accounting for
29% of my portfolio of 19 stocks - CLS 18% and PNG 11%,

Is there a corresponding expression to tell when and how to decide they've run far enough and start cutting back ?

Thanks as always for your help. It's greatly appreciated.

Q: Greetings,

Pondering on buying VHI but concerned about the supposed buyback yield of -Minus 20%

1. Does that mean 20% more shares introduced ? eek! Alarm bells or not?
2. Implications going forward? Your most recent comment was sell (is that still correct?)
4. Buy at what sort of price?
5. Insider ownership is at 10%

What to do?
Cheers

Q: Between BAM and BEPC ...which do you prefer for income and growth in this current environment? I currently have a full position of BN for growth as well as a full position in BAM which provides some income but little growth as of late. I am considering selling BAM and moving to BEPC.

Q: The market reaction to the latest quarterly report didn't seem very favorable and the stock dropped quite a lot.

I listened to the conf call but didn't hear anything that would warrant such a drop unless it's the new product models delaying some product sales but over all resutls were quite strong.

What did I miss?
