Q: Hi Team,

I hold some of TD's high interest savings product (TDB8150 - 1.6% interest) for short term cash. You have also mentioned PSA.TO (1.86% interest) as a similar product.

Do you know if there is any substantive difference in these two products in terms or cost or risk or anything else?

Thank you.

Michael

Q: Hello 5i team,
I have noticed from looking in the past 3 years that most of my losses have been from small cap stocks (BOS,MCB,RRX,RHT,etc...) and almost all of my gains have been from mid to large caps. I would still like to have a certain percent exposure to small caps without buying individual stocks.

-I was wondering if there are ETFs that track small caps in Canada or the US (or and ETF that tracks both) for the very long term?

-Are there some that would have a decent dividend?

-What is an ideal percent allocation for small caps in a diversified portfolio?

Thank You,
Andrew

Q: Hi 5i, Shopify seems to have a lot of competition entering the space with Instagram and Square's announcements, and now Microsoft. Would you suggest trimming back on this name at this point if its at a 5% weighting? Thanks.

Q: So sorry, I asked this question yesterday but got the stock ticker wrong! It's not Winpak that I am interested in, it is Winmark on the nasdaq code
I'm thinking of investing in this company. Considering the slow down in the economy, consumer high debt in Canada and possible upcoming recession, I think this is one of the few consumer discretionary companies that might not be too affected. Your thoughts on this company, please. They are consignment stores.Many thanks for your great service! Jen

PLC announced an offering: Park Lawn Corporation Announces $125 Million Bought Deal Offering and Successful Completion of Cress Funeral Service Acquisition. Stock down 6.75%, is this an opportunity to purchase PCL at a discount?

Q: I would like to know if there is any "hanky panky" going on with
SIS and Dejardins. SIS got upgraded by Dejardins from $16 to $17.50 on an earnings miss which made the stock go up over $15. Now Dejardins are the underwriters
of this deal. Also does this type of "you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours"
happen often in the markets?
