Q: Good morning team, I would be interested to hear your opinion on FAP.
Read Answer Asked by Bruce on September 20, 2013
Q: Good morning all.
I just heard of this quite new(mid 2011)fund TLF.UN and am wondering what sort of option this fund would be for following the tech sector in the US via the TSX. A Brompton Fund at (http://www.bromptongroup.com/funds/fund/tlf/overview) it pays a nice distribution and has a mgmt fee of 0.75 but I expect the MER is higher. It looks like it is holding 16 positions and is fairly active writing covered calls to boost returns. Does 5i have any knowledge of, insights on or opinions about this fund and would something like QQQX or other be a better vehicle for following the US tech sector? TLF is small and probably not that liquid.
Thank you again for your wonderful service and support!

Also, would a basket of stocks bgi.un, wte and snc lavalin make good investing sense.

Thank you, yet again, for all your help.

Yet they have the nerve to state that they made 15% last year but not on the $25.00 face but after in sank to close to $800.00 VOTE AGAINST GIVING THEM THE RIGHT TO RENEW GET YOUR MONEY BACK AS OF DEC. 31st VOTE NO george
