Q: Can you please recommend an ETF that tracks the broader US market, that I can buy with CDN funds. I know you have identified IWO in the past but I don't have US funds and the cost and spread on currency conversion turns me off... It seems you are going to lose 3+% coming and going just on the conversion charges. Thanks

Q: As a retiree I am looking, mainly, for income from dividends which will, hopefully, increase with time. i have done well in terms of capital gain over the years with TD, which I have gradually reduced, but feel I can get better value elsewhere. Specifically with HSBC having a yield of ~6.3% versus 3.9% - both have a history of dividend increase.
I know HSBC has been through a period of re-trenching and consolidation and wonder if this has stabilised the bank now.
Any thoughts on the switch for this ~1.5% holding?

Q: I bought this stock at $42 in July and it's currently at $31. I don't mind holding a losing stock if it has potential and I'm looking at a longer holding period of 7 - 12 years. Do you think this company has value for that period of time and should I hold? Is there too much competition for its market and if so how do you think it would fare? If you were to switch to another U.S. Company in the tech sector for that time frame could you give me 2 or 3 names you think would do well over time?

Could you give me a brief opinion of these 5 US stocks. #1 VICM (VIMICRO); #2 - SRPT (SAREPTA); #3 - MOH (MOLINA); #4 SWKS (SKYORKS); #5 SIMO (SILICON). Some I own and some I am considering buying.
