Q: I one " strongly believes" that swiss money could be a protection against US or CDN dollars ( for various economical reasons..),would it then make sense to invest in a swiss multinational Cie to obtain benefits from a future growing exchange rate ,if yes what Cies (2-3) listed on US market would be interesting at the présent time?

Q: Hello Peter and Team,

Is there a smart way to hold investments denominated in Swiss Francs that generate yield?

The goal is to diversify some funds to currency in a stable country that isn't printing money unabated like in Canada, the US, and the Euro to avoid loss of purchasing power. Even better if we can be invested in decent stocks or get dividend yield while we are at it.

Thanks!

Q: On yahoo finance charts, When I compare Mawer global equity fund vs enzl/ewl it shows that it outperforms those etfs.

But If you consider the currency conversion is it fair to say enzl and ewl have outperformed the Mawer Global fund?

Q: I enrolled in Portfolio analytics and found that your system does not recognize several of my holdings:
ishares msci switzerland etf
ishares msci netherlands etf
ishares msci japan etf
MAWER INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND 102 NL
MD BOND FUND MDM010
MD DIVIDEND GROWTH FUND MDM400
How can I include these holdings in my portfolio Analytics and do you have any comments on them. My inclination is to get rid of the fee based mutual funds and find something cheaper and with a better record
Thanks
