Q: Corby Spirit and Wine versus Diageo plc (adr)
Please comment which is a better hold for long term capital growth and dividend growth.
I hold Diageo in a rrsp account to mitigate the fully taxable dividend and would hold Corby in a taxable account to take advantage of the dividend tax credit.
Thanks for the excellent service.

I was thinking for the total $11,000
20% xbb

Q: Good afternoon:
You answered a question about MELI two years ago and stated that you viewed it as "quite risky". Would your view be the same at the current time and current price?
Thank you.

Q: I am interested in some balancing to my overwhelming Canadian holdings.
1. Can you suggest some low MER ETFs to provide US and World (excluding North America)?
2. What do you think of 'fundamental' ETFs compared to those based on 'market cap'? Any suggested names for further research?
The complexity of the expanding ETF field seems self defeating to their intended purpose. Thank you for your guidance.

Q: hello 5i team,
I have about 30 percent of my portfolio in U.S. stocks, which i thankfully bought when the Canadian dollar was high. At the risk of being called the odius name of 'market Timer' i am now considering converting about ten percent of these U. S. dollars into Canadian, hoping to ride up the other side. One candidate that i have looked at cashing in is VWO.US. I have heldthis for quite awhile and am just breaking even. I recently read an article by a resected analyist saying that his company is not betting on emerging markets for awhile yet. Heput forward a pretty reasonable case for this thesis. What do you think about using this etf for this strategy, or at least some of it?
with thanks as always
