Q: I have noticed that the real estate ETFs have been languishing over the last 10 years. What is your view of the real estate ETFs over the next 5 years? Under what conditions will these ETFs do well? What type of real estate ETFs do you expect to do well (domestic vs international, commercial vs residentical, etc.)?

Please recommend a North American and an international ETF which you feel could do well over the next 5 years. What percent of a portfolio would you recommend include real estate for diversification purposes?

Thank you for this excellent service.

Q: Peter,

Very interesting article in the recent moneysaver about stock market history. What do you see as the chief reasons the Japanese stock market was down for so long a period of time.

Thanks

Q: Hi Everyone at 5i!

With all the political complications in France right now, do you foresee any problems with TTE? It is a France based oiled gas company. I feel that the stocks in France may get a bit of a drubbing depending on the election results. I have a nice profit right now. Your thoughts??Hold?? Sell??

Cheers,
Tamara

Q: Would you recommend to buy, hold, or sell GSK?

I ask on behalf of a relative I help with investing. GSK is currently 1.3% of their portfolio. I had already been thinking of recommending that they sell when the news on June 3 came out:

"Shares of GSK dropped more than 9% on Monday, after a Delaware judge allowed more than 70,000 lawsuits alleging its discontinued heartburn drug Zantac caused cancer, to go forward, in a blow for the British drugmaker."

They are at a 15% loss with their GSK holding (less if you consider dividends), but luckily it is a small part of the portfolio.

I am leaning toward a 'sell recommendation' but am open to counter arguments.

Thanks so much!
