Q: Hi,
During the next 2 months or so I will have an extra 120 K to put in stocks (or elsewhere). As I'm retired I will try to have a high income slice stocks. Can you give me 6 to 8 ideas for high dividend REIT or other stocks. Distribution 8% and more, monthly a plus, starting with the safer. A little volatility not a problem for me. I have now CUF.UN, KWH.UN, NWH.UN.
Thanks in advance.

Q: I understand it s a wild market out there but how can we explain price change in excess of 7% daily in the price of oil ? Short sellers covering ? Are they that big ? If somebody can influence the price that much in the short term is it not somewhat concerning ? Your general comments are appreciated. Thank you.

Q: My question pertains to all of my mutual funds. It appears that there is at least a 1 day delay in the on-line values of my funds: on days when the market and the top 10 companies in a fund are down, the fund will show an increase and the opposite is also true. Do most funds rebalance daily?

Q: Hi all,

With the great market we are experiencing combined with regularly hearing from any objective individual that indexes are the best place for your money, should we not all be buying ETFs now? Really, why risk missing out on any recovery by playing specific stocks?

What ETFs would be your favourite right now, Cdn or US?

Thanks,

Cam

Q: Hello team,

My wife's TFSA currently holds full positions in WSP, BYD.UN, DH, WCP and 1/2 position in BDI. With new money, we are thinking of adding four half positions from SYZ, CXI, BOS, GUD, EFN or XTC. This is for long term hold and we are OK with volatility. Which four would you pick out of the list or would you suggest other names instead for better diversification? We are looking for smaller cap names with better growth potentials.

As always, thanks for your guidance.

Q: Gillian is at a 52 week low and it's graph appears like the price still has negative momentum. I am not in favour of selling quality companies, but I am not sure that the price of Gildan is going to move north any time soon. So I ask of you the usual, can you identify the reason for the recent price drops, and is this a good time to add to Gildan or do you see more downside? Thank you.

Q: Good Morning 5i,

I am looking to buy AGU for long term hold for appr. 5% of my portfolio. I know it does not only have potash in it's product line, are they other products strong enough to wash out the negative that potash product is going through and is it a good time to buy AGU?

Thanks

Paul
