Q: Good Morning,
Can you recommend any Asian ETFs which exclude China? I have enough Chinese investment but no direct SE Asian exposure.

Q: Hi,
When you provide a % allocated to gold, should we add our stocks and bullion together?
For example, I own KL and WM in terms of stocks and also PHYS. I always see the stocks as an type of investment and PHYS as another (commodity/currency) and don't really add them together when looking at the % of the portfolio. is this a mistake?
I know they are closely linked but would appreciate your thoughts on how investors should view these when setting up their portfolios.
Thanks,
Dan
