Q: I am about to manage my grandkids resp. They have about 52000 to eventually cover the 10 and 6 year old. Monthly contributions of 300 are being made with some "top ups" as available.

Q: My wife's adviser is recommending the following mutual fund for her RRSP. Could I get your opinion on the Edgepoint Global portfolio Mutual fund. Fund code- EDG100. MER around 2.13% about 6 billion under management- past returns have been strong. I am always cautious when I see such high MER's. Do you think this is a good one fund solution, if you went with ETF's instead of this mutual fund which ones would you recommend?
Thank you!
Thank you!

Q: I own pretty much all the stocks in your model portfolio (other than GC, PKI, SJ, and SYZ) and about 1/2 of your growth portfolio. I also own a number of ETFs, including VXC, VCN, VAB, CDZ, SPY, XAW, and VXUS. I was doing a review of my portfolio and noticed that the ETFs above now make up 20% of my portfolio. A couple questions:
1) Are some of these ETFs redundant in my case?
2) What sector allocation would you suggest for 2018?

Further to my question about US $ etfs in the financial sector, which one would focus on mid sized financial institutions? And do you have a preference over mid cap vs large cap?
Thanks, cathy

Q: Good morning Peter and team,
I am planning on setting aside 3% of my total portfolio for stocks that either have a good potential for long-term growth (i.e. set it aside and hope to have a multi-bagger in 10 years).
I currently own SHOP and would appreciate 3-4 more names you would suggest I consider, including a way to play the Artificial Intelligence space (is Horizons ROBO ETF a suitable option?).
Please disregard all B.E. Portfolio stocks (which I already own) and sector/market cap don't matter. I would prefer to stick to Canadian exchanges.
Thanks in advance,
Rory
