Q: Greetings

I have a US dollar account with 10% in US cash at the present time. In Canada, I have MAW 104 and like its set up.

Is there a similar US fund company to MAW 104 available or would you suggest just going with a product like VBAL? If VBAL, what is the US designation name for the product?

Thanks

Peter

Q: I think you regard the debt to cash flow ratio as an important gauge of a company's vulnerability to a downturn, so I am combing my portfolio to find the weaker candidates. But I am baffled by ADM's huge negative operating cash flow (and even huger negative free cash flow, of course) in each of its last four quarters (though not in previous years). It reported healthy gross profit and net income in each quarter, and debt has not increased substantially. What's going on?

Q: Greetings 5i team,

May I please have your expert analysis on the earnings of these companies.
I have been holding EMP.A for a while and have good profit. Is it time to bail out or still a good investment?
Is it time to step in to TCL.A?

Thank you in advance and have a safe and fun holidays

Q: What is the typical year-end behaviour of investors, such as tax loss selling? Do investors take profit of high P/E or high flying stocks to cover losing stocks? Any other typical trend/behaviour? Thanks.

Q: Why the big drop? Earnings were good. Do you see the $4.00 drop as justified? Farm Boy is always packed and they are expanding in Toronto. Is it because they are taking on too much debt? I may sell since I have a huge position. Can you provide me with a consumer staples etf that won’t be so volatile. It is for my Rrsp soon to be converted to a Riff. Thanks.
