Q: I've read the answers to previous ZWB questions and the risk seems minimal now with this decline in price to below $15, given these are Canadian banks. Are the two main risks, reduced bank dividends, and reduced or no income, causing further share price decline? What other risks may affect this ETF, and your thoughts on possible things that could cause a further price decline from here. Thank you.

Q: Hello Peter and Team,

Like most others, I'm licking my wounds tonight and strategizing how I might eventually make back some of the ground I've lost today. Thank you for the updated report and shopping list suggestions provided.
As well, I was thinking that there may be some good recovery opportunities within electronic transaction companies. I realize that interest rates, volume of transactions, etc., are some of the factors that will affect valuations, but the corona virus could be a boost for these companies if more of the world's consumers (especially in developing countries) move to a cashless society. I read that China is burning or disinfecting a lot of their paper money to help curb infection spread. Do you agree with this thesis, and if so, could you suggest a list of companies that could benefit? Could there also be boost to bitcoin adoption? Thanks.

Brad

Q: Hi Team,

What are you thoughts about Financial data and stock exchanges stocks. They are holding up quite well and will have less impact from the interest rate cuts and financial meltdowns. Which one would you recommend from the 4 companies listed at current valuation.

Thanks

Q: Good morning,

Can you quickly remind me how low (or declining) interest rates effect these companies? I'm curious if they, generally speaking, are positively or negatively impacted. I feel like they all benefit (money is cheaper for them to borrow for acquisitions - BAM, or loans - GSY), but I'm not too sure, especially with ECN.

Thx,
