Q: My financials consist of the above two stocks and a full position in GSY. AIF has been week and I am down 9%. AIF is 1.85% of my portfolio. ECN has done well and is up 12%. It makes up 2.25% of my portfolio. Which would you top up to a full position at this time. I also have a managed account that holds the usual canadian banks so I have narrowed my choice to the above two.

Q: I know that you suggest Sun Life for a Canadian life insurance company, but how would it stack up against the potential of other life insurance companies in the US? Brian Acker recently recommended Met Life saying it was much cheaper than Sun Life. How would you compare Sun Life to US companies? Overall what Life Insurance companies would you invest in regardless of Canada or US?

Q: Hi, with the rise in interest rates, I was expecting to see a bit more of a bounce in SLF and MFC. Currently, I have a 1% position at a much lower entry price on SLF, and about a 4.5% position in MFC. Would adding more SLF here for a longer term hold now that rates have moved up here make sense? The entire portfolio is pretty well diversified and I have time on my side.

Q: I am looking for investments which will respond positively to rising interest rates. I suspect CPD has anticipated a rise and I am told E*Trade will substantially benefit from rising rates - why? what are E*Trade prospects and for that sector in the current environment? Can you recommend an ETF for the US regional banks and do you think they will outperform? Thanks for your consideration
