Q: From the little information I was able to dig up, it would seem that Mix Telematics is among the top providers of cloud-based SaaS for tracking fleets of commercial vehicles worldwide. It also appears that its share price is currently at bargain levels compared to its competitors. Is there something fundamentally amiss with this company or is the problem a temporary issue which would be to my advantage to exploit by buying right now?

Q: I was watching BNN last night and they had Asian correspondents on talking about Cathay Pacific and all of the challenges they are having with earnings amid the unrest. My thesis (and what I would like you to comment on) is whether this might not be a time to buy into a company facing headwinds that are beyond its control but priced into the stock? I love flying on the airline and hope you can comment on the stock.

Q: For the moment, I'm satisfied with each of the CDN and US holdings in my portfolio. But I have nothing that is non-North American. So I'm planning to invest about $50,000 which would be 10% of my current portfolio. I haven't tracked international equities very much and am looking for recommendations. What do you think about purchasing individual stocks ... intending LT (5+ year) hold? Could you suggest 4 or 5 stocks I might look at? Asia? Europe? etc. Finally, if you're not keen on investing in individual stocks, can you recommend a few international ETFs for me to research? Thanks very much. (5i is an awesome resource for me).

Q: I found your response to Leonard’s question regarding which accounts international ETFs are best placed quite interesting. I hold large positions in both VE and VEE in a registered account. If I understand your response it means that I am paying a withholding tax twice (on US and International side) with no recourse to claim it back. If staying within a registered account, what two ETF would you recommend to replace VE and VEE for better tax efficiency? Would you endorse immediately switching and would there be any drawbacks to making such a switch?

Q: Hi,

I own both these funds. Both are held in a TFSA, and I am looking for "total return". I was thinking of selling one and adding to the other.

1. Is there a lot of overlap between the 2 ETF's? (I noticed on some trading days, they sometimes have a negative co-relation).

2. If you were sell one and add to the other, which would you sell? Or would you simply keep both "as is".

Thanks,

Craig

Q: Hi,
Watching China lately and wondering if it might be a good time to start a position in a related ETF such as those mentioned above. Are these good choices, or are there better ones out there? I believe ASHR is an index sort of ETF, whereas the KWEB is focused on the internet? Maybe there are other, better ETF's? I don't fully understand fundamentals, nor can I suggest I've anything but a rudimentary sort of grasp on the world economic situation - that's your department! I just see some technical signals that might infer these are improving. Looking forward to your comments and as always, much appreciate all your hard work!
Thanks,
Dawn
