Q: I have a problem sometimes with the "HOLD" part of the buy,sell or hold question. In my mind in business, if you do not sell something,you are effectively buying it as you could have sold it and bought something else. I realize part of it is the fee we give our brokers for buying/selling and not jumping on or off the wagon too often. Having said that , three of my holdings ,AIM,CJR.B and DII.B have not done me well and I would appreciate your thoughts as to whether any of them should be dumped in favour of WB. If so, which one
Thanks for all you do

Q: Hi 5i Team,

Recently you recommended VGG ETF for US exposure as a portion of an RESP portfolio. I see Vanguard also has VIG. Both ETFs have the exact same top 10 holdings. Vanguard has a third ETF in VGH which is the hedged version of VGG. All three ETFs are called US Dividend Appreciation. My question is should I be purchasing VGG (sold in Canadian dollars -but not hedged (?))or VIG (sold in US dollars). It seems that VIG has a MER of 0.10% while VGG has an MER of 0.29%.
Thanks,
Richard

Q: What do you make of the present market price being below the take over price of $6.50? Is this the market saying that it is uncertain the take over will proceed never mind receive any competing bids? What are your thoughts on the take over?

Q: Hi Peter and Staff
You have McCoy in one of your portfolios for a decent dividend and some exposure to oil/gas sector. I am considering adding CEU instead as dividend is slightly higher but analysts seem to be targeting a great pop on this one while not so much on McCoy. Scotia seems to emphasize that their target is not solely based on a big recovery in oil prices. How do you compare the two for dividend safety/growth and capital apprecation?'
Thanks for all you do
Dennis
