Q: Maybe the Globe's listings are simply inaccurate. But it shows HTA as doing much less poorly than HTAE, which basically only invested in HTA and has a higher monthly dividend. The G&M shows HTA is up 33% ytd but HTAE is up almost 44%. I get that HTAE can have various strategies, including leverage - though it's odd that it seems as stable than HTA. What do you think of this ETF and its risk factors? Esp as compares with HTA.

Q: Bob the builder is back/staying and now seems to be wanting to turn into Bob the seller. Do you like the strategy and think the sum of the parts is worth significantly more? How does Disney look on a forward P/E and PEG basis? At what price do you think this is an excellent opportunity for a long-term hold? Thanks

Q: Hi Folks,
I currently hold CSU and MSFT in my otherwise conservative RRSP. I am looking at adding either AAPL or GOOG for a little more growth. Can you suggest which one would be better to add today.
Thanks

Q: My long-term interest in VZ was partially founded on it's extremely low correlation with almost every other equity and fixed income category. I am "off" VZ due its recent issues and am curious as to whether you are aware of any similarly low correlation, reliably high income alternatives?

Q: I currently own both these 2 REITS. BEI appears to reach higher highs, and ERE seems to be reaching new lows. What are your thoughts on both REITS? Do you believe there is there more room to run for BEI, and would you buy ERE at these levels?

Q: With regards to the shift in consumer thinking related to moving away from using fossil fuels for home heating/cooling, are there any companies that would stand to benefit from the shift towards heat pumps?

Trane and Honeywell come to mind but are they actually good companies for investors? The 3 to 5 year charts show them as being somewhat rangebound.

Are there perhaps other companies? Or companies that supply the parts for the heat pumps?

Thanks!

Q: Hello, I am thinking about selling my position in QQQ in favour of small cap etfs spread amongst value and growth. My feeling is that over the coming years they will have a better growth factor than the current large cap companies listed in QQQ. How do you feel about the ETFs described above, or perhaps some alternatives you favour ?

Q: I'm interested in starting positions in companies involved in the push to a more energy efficient future. I've had a look at CCO AND ALB and I'd appreciate your opinion as to which one is the better choice currently. Also, is it too early to be taking positions in these sectors or are these companies capable of strong capital gains in the next year or two? Finally, do you think there are better companies to invest in in these sectors?
