Q: Hello Peter, keeping in mind the long term and maintaining a balanced 20 stock portfolio closely mirroring the 5i Model portfolio is it advisable to add some US exposure of 10 to 15 % to the portfolio presently?
In the question answer section of 5i the following ETF’s SPY, IWO, and VIG seen to be the choice. For the long term would you suggest 3 equal parts of the above ETF’s or go mostly for the growth potential of small caps and recommended only IWO? Thank you for providing such great insight, Ronald

Q: Kevin and Scot, thanks for the insight on self-directed RDSPs. Very helpful!!
Peter, although this may a bit beyond the mandate of 5i Research, I am very interested in 3-D printing investments. However, as it is an emerging technology with no clear winners yet, I am building a basket of 3-D printing stocks to cover all the bases and ensure that I hold the ultimate leaders in the sector. I currently hold:
3-D development, production and sales companies - 3-D Systems, Stratasys and ExOne
3-D measurement and imaging company - FARO Technologies
3-D prototype and mold production and sales company - Proto Labs
Robotics and automation - ROBO STOX ETF
I am very interested in information from 5i staff or members about any promising, emerging 3-D printing related companies that might be candidates to become viable players in this sector.
I do understand that my question may be far beyond the scope of this forum and that it may not receive any answers.
Thanks for your amazing service to retail investors.
Ed
