Q: My discount broker provides the following comments under a comment heading for clients buying corporate bonds of Canadian banks:

"Bail In" or "Bail-In -debt"

Can you please explain why some bonds of Canadian banks have such a comment attached to them while other bank bonds do not?
Thanks

Q: Good Afternoon Peter, Ryan, and 5i Team:
Do you think that SLF represents good value at $57-58 CDN per share ??
Why do you think it has come off so much ?? Is it more sector related than anything company specific ??
Thanks as always for your help. DL

Q: Good day, With the big drop in SVB today, would you see this as a good entry point for a long-term investor? How do you see it’s growth potential going forward? Assuming it’s a buy at this level, would you see it as worth buying if I already own JPM?
Thank you for your insights, Doris

Q: I recently read that Wealthsimple was firing staff and cutting back on some services. I do use Wealthsimple Trade and have been very happy with its simplicity and ease of use. Should an investor be concerned about bankruptcy for a firm like Wealthsimple as opposed to investing/trading with a bank like National Bank or one of the big banks ?

Q: Hello I am considering buying SLF at these levels $57 to $59 with a dividend yield of 4.75%.
I want to hold these shares for a minimum of 3 years, but more likely into the 5 year range.
I know this is a difficult question to ask, but based on your experience, how much downside % do you think this stock has?
I would like to buy in allotments over the next 3 months.
Suggestions, thank you.

Q: I had thought rising rates would be good for insurance companies, but they're certainly not reflecting that. SLF only has a P/E of 8.85 but it's still going down quickly. Great West has done no better. How do insurance companies perform in a rising rate/inflationary cycle?

Q: A bit of a timely question here but GSY has pulled back a fair bit today. Obviously due to the 100bp rate hikes which directly affects their business. At what point are rate hikes so high that GSY is no longer a good buy? Would you add on this pullback? Thx
