Q: I need to increase the overall international exposure in my portfolio (currently 15%).
I am considering using VE as a simple way to increase international exposure to 30%.

1) Is VE appropriate for this purpose?
2) What other ETF(s) might be suitable?
3) Given VE is down 20% in the past 12 mos would you make a single large purchase, or several smaller ones over time?
Thanks,
Trevor

Q: Hi Peter and 5i Team
Have held AEM for several years in a LIF. Share price is down about 35%. I am looking at LUN as an alternative with a higher dividend and possibly better growth. Gold or copper? Could I get your opinion for a long term hold. Thanks

Q: I am down on Block and was looking to tax loss before year end. That said:
1) Would it be worthwhile to wait for earnings? I thought perhaps a good report might help improve this situation. 2) Is Block worthwhile to buy back after 30 days or move the funds to my 1/2 position in Visa?

Q: Into the last quarter now for 2022. Should we sit on our hands and wait out the tax loss season selling which could be harsh, or has much of the selling already occurred?

Thanks for your thoughts.
