BUY

This would be if you just want to just buy the bond market itself. Federal government, provincial government and corporate bonds all blended in. It will produce the average return of the bond market and is very safe. It will provide you decent income.

BUY

A bond ETF that has a sort of mid-duration where you can pick up some yields over the treasuries.

BUY

Holds a basket of Cdn corporate bonds. This is the place you want to be in for the Cdn bond market. When rates rise, this will get hurt along with other ETFs but this should outperform as you have the extra yield cushion in it.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 12/10. Up 5.33%.) Cdn Corp Bond ETF.

COMMENT

Cdn Corp Bond ETF. A good product but he would go on their website and have a look at the duration and if it is anything more than 3 or 4 years, he would lighten up as you want short duration.

BUY

Cdn Corp Bond ETF. Probably provides best exposure to Canadian corporations. Probably yielding 3%-3.5%. Holds everything from 1 year to 30-year bonds. You could also look at some of the US ETF’s such as iShares Corporate Bond ETF (LQD-N) where you could do a little bit better.

BUY

Canadian corporate bond ETF. Individual investors need to have a diversified portfolio and ETF’s are a good way to go as they have lower management fees.

TOP PICK

Cdn Corp Bond ETF. Doesn't think there are risks any more with corporate bonds. This will give you a bit of yield pickup without venturing into preferreds.

DON'T BUY

They never mature. You are forced to buy whatever they buy and that is 35% financials because they is part of the index. Go with handpicked bonds.

DON'T BUY

Cdn Corporate Bond ETF. Thinks interest rates are going up and part of that is reflected in the bond market. He would hesitate. If you were going to buy a bond ETF, he would stay on the short end of the curve.

WEAK BUY

6-year duration so it is a little more sensitive to an increase in interest rates. He is not particularly nervous about this one.

BUY

Passive ETF. It is the broad corporate universe. More interest-rate sensitivity, but higher yield.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Apr 30/09. Up 8.75%.) Corporate bonds. Reasonable place to be. Does not expect much further spread reductions.

COMMENT

iShares Cdn Corp Bond ETF. Most people are expecting rate hikes in the 2nd half of this year and this will have an adverse impact on all Bond ETFs. He doesn't expect the rate hikes will be that large.

COMMENT

Cdn Corp Bond ETF. Prefers over the Cdn Bond Market ETF (XBB-T) because of its shorter duration and the higher yield. 52% of it is in financials, which is a high percentage.
