Q: my portfolio is 12% ADR 19




My portfolio is 12% ADR 19% US stocks 31% in the TSX and the rest fixed income.The ADR and US stocks are in US dollars. As my bonds mature, would it be more advantageous to put the cash in US dollars and invest in the US market considering the strength compared to the Canadian market?

Q: KMP/MRC
Please enlighten me as to the differences between REITS and R/E Corps other than paying dividends vs distributions. Since the Corps have fallen with the sell-off in the REIT sector, are they likely to be negatively affected in the same way as REITS if interest rates rise and should they be bought, sold or held through this time? Thanks.

Q: Comment on 'REITS and diversification' response:

"as long as REITs/utilities do not make up ALL of your portfolio ... if you are diversified you are fine."

I recently read where the average persons assets are mainly in his home which he hopes to sell upon retirement. Perhaps this should be taken into account re diversification as well.
