Q: Closed ended funds have a sometimes-deservedly mixed reputation. The Templeton Dragon fund's Far East coverage seems to offer that relatively rare (for me, at least) combination of excellent return and low correlation to other holdings in my portfolio. Can you comment on its value to a predominantly North American portfolio?

Q: What are your thoughts on Garmin as an investment? It even near it's 52 week high it doesn't seem overly expensive. Is this because they're a mobile hardware company competing with Apple? I do a lot of road and mountain biking and it seems like every other bike has a Garmin mounted on the handle bars. Did I miss all the growth on this one or do you think it's got plenty left?
Also it looks like it still hasn't recovered from the '08 recession. Do you know what happened to them back then or why it's taken so long to recover?
Cheers

Q: SQM seems to be having environmental assessment problems. I believe the mine pumps up a lithium brine ground water. I think this water is allowed to evaporate in the desert sun to produce a lithium rich concentrate. Not sure if they inject water back into the ground to replace what has been taken out. That would add considerable expense to the whole operation. Do you feel SQM's mining operation is sustainable? The share price of SQM looks to be quite volatile over the past 10 years. I'm guessing demand is increasing slowly and the stock volatility has more to do with investor's short term passion followed by lack of passion for lithium. In addition I suppose SQM is a material's company so volatility comes with the territory. I remain undecided on the company and any thoughts you might have would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Q: Hi, could I please have your view on this ETF. It is small in AUM but seems to have a lot of underlying holdings. Wondering if these holdings are relatively mature stable companies (for China!) like utilities, telcos, banks etc.. Would you consider the distribution relatively stable? Also is it currency hedged to the Canadian $. Thanks.
Q: Any thoughts on how the pound will fare in the next 6 months? My thoughts are that the Great Britain needs the EU more than the EU needs Great Britain. My guess the EU will play a little "hardball" with Britain so the value of the pound will decline. Of course a declining pound should help British exports...just like a weak currency helps Canadian exports. I'm not intending to short the pound. Just curious. (A pound currency at one point was backed by a pound of silver. Now the pound currency is worth about a tenth of one ounce of silver. I believe we call that inflation!)
