Q: Can you tell me if it is common practice to use total return or price return as the benchmark when comparing personal year end returns to the TSX or S&P? I'm seeing many sites use the lower return (price return excluding dividends) which obviously makes returns look better in comparison. But if i'm comparing my portfolio which has some dividend income why wouldn't the benchmark also include its dividends to truly see which performed better? Just wondering what the accepted practice is? Thx

Q: I asked a question earlier about Caisse Desjardins Federal Capital Shares. Thankyou for your answer. I left a crucial element out, though. The holder of these shares is 98 this week. If this instrument acts something like a preferred share, it probably wouldn't be appropriate for her . I am thinking, for example, of the performance of CPD, recently. But, it seems to be a bit different than a preferred share, too. But, there still doesnt seem to be any guarantee, like a real fixed income instrument. Thanks

Q: Hi 5i Team:
I have a healthy appetite for risk looking at a 5+ year timeline and want to start a new half weight position in one of these two in my RRSP. Which would you give the nod to for best capital appreciation going forward given the current market & their valuations.
Thanks in advance,
Greg.

Q: Hi 5i,
Happy New Year.
In the original asset allocator there was a suggested portfolio in ETFs. Mine has vanished! I was trying to look up possible ETFs in European or International small caps.
Are there any? Or would GIB, WSP,Altus or CAE count as international as well as Canadian?
