Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I would appreciate your opinion on which sector CSH.un is in.
The Globe and Mail has it listed in the healthcare sector. That makes some sense given the demographic of its clientele. However, other sources list it in the REIT sector. It makes some sense that it would be sensitive to the housing sector (i.e. if house prices fall, fewer seniors will be able to sell their houses to move into retirement homes.)
With respect to my attempt to be diversified across the 11 sectors, which sector would you place CSH.un in?
Thanks so much!

Q: As a pensioner, I just came into $150K of "extra" money that I would like to invest in the 5 year and more time frame. (I'm optimistic). I would like 6 names you can recommend within the following framework.
1. Must be TSE listed company.
2. Much of the income must be from outside of Canada.
3. Must be in the top tier of stable companies.
4. Should be growth rather than dividend focused.
Three "ideal" investments I have in mind is TD, MG, and BAM.A. So along this line, what can you recommend? Thank You.

Q: I am considering initiating a small position in Helius Medical Technology because I am really interested in the treatment options for neurological disease/trauma they could potentially offer. After reading about their PoNS device in various books and articles, I recently discovered they have gone public. I know it is very early days, but in your opinion, is it a worthy investment opportunity? I would be purchasing a small amount as part of the "speculative" part of my portfolio.
Thanks for the help you guys provide day in and day out, Rory

Q: Hi there, can you please comment or provide analysis on how CXR, IT, AYA and others within the portfolios would be affected due to the Brexit vote coming up soon, considering revenues from European region and due to FX? I believe Brexit vote may be causing stock price weakness for CXR, maybe? Also, would anyone want to take out CXR before the Brexit vote knowing how volatile Europe would be if England exited? Thanks!
