Q: i would like to increase my US equity exposure which largely consists of VUN and VIG currently. I don't have a specific small cap holding but feel the lagging performance might indicate it is a good time to buy TQSM. Would you advocate buying now or waiting until October?
Thanks.

Q: A question was recently asked about AVUV, VIOV and DFSV; and the answer described them and ranked them in that order. TQSM was also reviewed.

My question: how does IJR rank and compare to these funds? Many thanks.

Q: U.S. Small Cap ETF - please compare AVUV with DFSV and VIOV (both not in your system). I already own TQSM, perhaps add more?

Q: I am looking for an etf that addresses small-mid cap US stocks in a cash account, but can be bought in $CDN. I stumbled across TQSM which is a little small for my liking and has a higher MER than I prefer, but otherwise seems to cover the field I am interested in.
What is your opinion of TQSM and do you have other suggestions for this area?

Q: I am trying to insure broad diversity across our investments and we seem to be missing the small to medium cap categories. Would you consider this to be a good way to cover this area?
