2013-04-25 N/A A Commentary A Comment -- General Comments From an Expert

Markets. Bullish on wall street.  With this volatility in gold he is only deploying new cash in the US markets.  If he has a lot of hedge ETFs he gets some that are not hedged.  He has been using the VB, which is 660 stocks, generally more diversified and mid cap, generally lower cost.  He has never been a gold bug.  There are some good trading opportunities for those that want to trade gold.  The XIUs are as a far as he is willing to go.

2013-04-25 DON'T BUY ZCA-T BMO Agriculture Commodities

They`ve all been getting beaten up.  If you want to play that market then use this but there is greater volatility.  Feed and seed companies.  Not thrilled with the results.

2013-04-25 COMMENT ZMI-T BMO Monthly Income E.T.F.

Attractive yield but he always questions them.  Sometimes there is not just a return but a return OF your capital.  That makes it look like a high yield.  A decent yield but be aware of what you are getting back.
