Q: Hi Peter,
Constellation software keeps dropping. Is this just a reaction to the current market conditions and that it has had a good return of the year, and hence profit taking? Also, I thought (from what I read) Fairfax had its portfolio setup such that it would be protected somewhat to declines in the market, yet it is dropping like other stocks. Any comments please? Thanks again.

Q: Hi Peter, I have just read in the financial news this morning "Germany's 2-year yield fell to a fresh record low of -0.29 percent as investors feared the deflationary pressures of a slowdown in China - which devalued its currency on Tuesday - would sap growth around the rest of the world". (Ref: Reuters). Question: how can a yield of minus 0.29 percent be possible? Thanks, Gervais

Q: In the past, you have expressed a bias towards not hedging US ETFs purchased with Canadian dollars. Is this still your view given the significant spread between the US dollar and the Canadian dollar? At what point in time, as we go forward, should one seriously consider hedging US ETFs?
