Timestamps
00:00 Introduction
02:01 For bond funds, Should we look at yield to maturity or the last 12 months trailing yield? And why?
09:28 You mentioned recently that you switched your 'boring' allocation from a Global All Cap fund to a Developed World ex-UK fund. Can you discuss your reason for this?
15:13 ​What is your opinion about a portfolio for retirement including mainly dividend ETFs and stocks with the remaining 40% of the portfolio in TIP and CD
30:39 ​Is the world economy going to recover anytime soon. Are alt-coins a better inflation hedge than bitcoin?
39:33 ​If we buy EUR All-World UCITS ETF, should we buy it hedged or not given the recent FX effects?
45:55 Do you subscribe to Factor Investing
51:01 Any tax issues with buying US stocks and possible dividends from them? Is there lots of paperwork as a UK resident?
52:47 Is a fixed-term savings account the same as a corporate or bank bond? And with rates very similar to gilts why choose one over another?
57:13 ​IBZL is a distributing ETF. Ishares documents imply it has a yield of circa 13%, but when I look at Hargreaves Lansdown it says N/A next to dividend. How do I know what is right?
1:00:22 ​I thought that if I keep the TIP ETF for ~7 years I will recover, at least principal. If not TIP how about STIP or BND , which bond funds
1:03:05 ​My 401k from Alight is a selection of retirement age funds. The longer your horizon, the more Stock weighted it is. So as we come out of "recession" could I consider the more "long horizon" fund?
