Q: what % weighting would you feel appropriate for TLT in my balanced Portfolio. If rates start to fall hard in the next 2 years and TLT starts going up. What will happen to the dollar.
Will the U.S. dollar rise in comparison to the CDN dollar or Fall ?
I'm wondering if i should buy the hedged ETF ZTL.F instead of TLT
Thanks Gord

Q: Hi 5i team.
Re ZTL, this long term US Treasury Bonds ETF has been declining since May. With the blue sweep in the US, additional benefit spending to come, possible rate increase and inflation in a year or two, would you recommend to sell this ETF now? What needs to happen to see this ETF reverse the fall? Given the current world economic situation, what other bond etfs would be safer bet? (amount of interest income is not important) Thanks.
