Q: Good Morning,
I hold many of the stocks in the 5i Model Equity Portfolio. I would like to diversify my holdings beyond Canada so was thinking of starting a position in MAW150. It has performed well over the past couple of years. What do you think of this fund going forward? Are there others of this genre that you would recommend instead?
Thanks for all your help.

Q: Hi Peter, now that HLF has dropped so much, is it a better entry point than CLR? It has a a higher dividend. Also, off late a lot of BNN Guests are suggesting that Dividends * Buy Backs are a Bad thing, and that they should be reinvesting those funds for Growth. Your thoughts?

thanks, Austin

Q: My husband and I are 65 and 60. We have never had any US or global investments in the past. We've now sold part of our RRSP portfolio (~20% of the total investment) and are ready to step into the US market with ETFs. My question is 1) The timing – the Feds will increase the interest rate very soon. Should I wait until the Fed announcement?, and 2) What US and/or Global ETFs should I buy? Thanks.

Q: Hello,

I would like your opinion on Sleep Country as a long term hold. It seems like a simple quality business, but am hesitant if there's value after coming public. Thanks
