Q: I am interested in what 5iR thinks of one investing in TD’s fixed income TD Bank Semi-Annual Pay Step Up Extendible Notes July18 2023 to July 18 2025. The coupons rates are Year 1: 4%, Year 2: 4.4%, Year 3: 4.8%. With today’s volatile stock market is it better to invest in this fixed income vehicle instead of stocks. Thanks … Cal

Q: Can you recommend your favorite Cad Hedged Nasdaq ETF and also Cad Hedged S & P 500 ETF?

Q: Based on your best guess, how high do you think Prime rate can go and at what level will the 5 yr Canadian bond yield stabilized?
If the 5 yr Canada bond yield was to increase above say 5%, would it trigger a much larger stock market correction? There was not many alternatives to the stock market over the last many years in view of the very low rates. It seems to be changing to fight inflation. I am curious of you general comments on this. Thank you!

Q: Hello,
I am looking at buying some corporate bonds for the fixed income portion of my portfolio.
Via my discount brokerage account, I see annual yield between 3% and 4.5% for terms between 3 and 4 years for bonds issued by big banks or Lifeco. If I hold to maturity, am I correct my annual return will be the annual yield?
Also, anything to watch for with these securities? To make my life easier, I was planning on buying a few larger positions to balance my portfolio (as opposed to the typical 7% max stock position for the equiy portion of the portfolio).
Thank you for your help.

Q: Hello,
With GIC rates now getting interesting, would you know if we can benefit within a discount brokerage account (i.e. buy a GIC or similar guarantee product within a trading account).
The idea is to invest the cash balances in my RRSP & TFSA accounts.
