Q: Why have the private equity stocks in US, been under pressure, for past 2 weeks ?

With a much higher intrinsic value, never thought that BN could trade as low as $74, after hitting a high of $90, not long ago.

Is there any reason, specific to Brookfield Corp, or it's just the market and sector decline ?

Thank You

Q: Hello,

I hold BNS:CA for dividends. It has been dropping in price recently and I am looking to add to my position. I seem to remember it is a long term favourite within the bank stocks. Given the current Canadian and global "uneasieness", would your opinion change or would shift to TD:CA or XXX:CA (a bank) be in order. I have read the recent Q/A re: BNS:CA in the database,

Q: Hi,

The Financial Times this week published an article about Brookfield Corporation questioning how much money it really makes due to its “opacity.”

I would be most interested in your take on the reporting. https://www.ft.com/content/6e070b14-74cc-4ade-bd80-7bd3900c6a82

Thanks very much. Michael

Q: Hello, NA looks like a solid bank with good growth potential, especially after there CWB purchase, does today look like a good entry point for a long term hold ? If not, what would be a good entry point ? I am willing to entertain another big 6 bank if you feel I can do better.

Q: Any idea why MFC is taking such a hit today? I don't expect insurance companies to be down 5% in a day unless it's a broad market thing. I realize the market is down due to orange man but insurance shouldn't be impacted by tariffs and my GWO is up.
