Q: Hi Guys
Thanks for all your help during this little blip in the market. Thinking that with the new focus on Covid-19 treatment, medical supply companies might be a good investment, at least in terms of consumables. Do you think that might be a wise investment and if so do you have any favourites at this time?

Thanks

Stuart

Q: Hello team,
With regard U.S fed interest rates cut on Sunday, would BoC follow another 50 points cut soon?
When the markets return uptrend, would index ETF or sector ETF do better?
Thanks

Q: ZWK has fallen dramatically in this oil and coronavirus crisis. It now yields more than 10% with a 16 cent monthly distribution. Is this higher yield now a red flag for this ETF and U.S. Banks in general? Your thoughts are appreciated on the risks for it going forward, and given it's holdings and exposure to this downturn, and history, the likelihood that it may cut it's distribution. Thank you.

Q: Good morning guys:
Just like every other investor my stocks in my tfsa are down big time. I have not sold anything as of yet and bought Boyd and MasterCard for my cash account with the recent dip . I know investors should stay the course and not sell quality companies , but just like 2008 it took a long time to get our money back that was lost . That being said is it a better move to sell all my stocks in my tfsa and take the loss . I take the remaining funds and buy quality companies that have been hit big time like a Disney , mastercard , visa , Boyd for example . I presently own 10 stocks in my tfsa and they are all equal weightings. Could you please elaborate what an investor should do in this situation
Thank you for great work .

Current yield 9.98% mainly due to drop in stock price.Reportedly rate is based on 5yr GOC plus 2.89% & resets on Mar 31/21.I think the 5yr GOC is currently 0.62% which indicates a much lower rate then.Please may I have your opinion.If it is advisable to sell,please give 2 to 3 replacemrents dividend stocks( not preferred) Txs for u usual great services & advices

Q: Can I get your thoughts on this etf? It only has $34 million in net assets. I am looking for a government bond ETF with a 1 to 5 year bonds with a reasonable management fee. Trying to get a bit more yield than GICs while preserving my capital. Any other investments that can achieve this? Thanks for your suggestions.

Q: Currently hold both (1.5% position) and down a lot despite having good management teams. Thinking of selling for a tax loss as I have some gains taken earlier this year pushed forward from last year. Outlook for both in this depressed market with prospect of $20 oil and whether they can weather their debt levels. Buy, hold or sell?
