Q: What do you think of GREK as an investment (and why it’s been falling lately)? The only professional endorsement I’m aware of is James Thorne’s on BNN back in May. I’m wondering if it’s a good time to get in.
Generally speaking, do you frown on country-specific ETFs, or would you make some exceptions (like India or Russia), especially for long term holds? Thanks.

Q: Hi,
I am looking for a good emerging markets ETF. In my screens there are so many to choose from and many with high Dividends, along with very strong gains, which of course I like. Since I know nothing about which countries and sectors to look for, could you recommend 2 or 3 good Emerging Market ETFS, preferably with a solid dividend and high growth potential, and also at a value price if possible. I am not overly concerned about risk and have no exposure in this area. Thank You.

Q: Hi Peter and Team,
Today's Globe & Mail had an article called "Wall Street views the emerging-market rout as a buying opportunity". I'd appreciate your perspective on the validity of the author's views, and some ETFs that could take advantage of this idea (if you agree).
Thanks as always for the pertinent advice.

Q: There has been only one question asked in regards to TAL Education. Since then, have you gained any further information on it that would make it a possible candidate for a TFSA? If so, what sector classification would be assigned to it? Thanks for such a valuable service.
Q: Aegon's latest press release stated the company will purchase 52 million shares to offset the dilutive effect of 2016 end year and 2017 interim stock dividends. Why didn't the company just pay and continue to pay cash dividends? It seems they are complicating what should a fairly routine process. Is there a tax benefit for the company by doing all of this?
Q: I have a full position in JAZZ PHARMACEUTICALS PLC (JAZZ:NSQ, US).

Q: I will reword my last question to be better understood, which equity Etf's would you recommend for each region of the world outside Canada, in other words, your favorites, thanks?
Q: Thanks very much for your recent reply. I’d like to get your opinion on the Active Beta ETFs from Goldman Sachs, particularly GEM (Emerging Markets) and GSIE (International). They charge a higher MER than Vanguard funds, but would you say it’s worth it because investors benefit from the expertise of top managers? Between VWO and GEM, which would you prefer and why? Thanks again.
