Q: hi folks:
regarding carole's question of should she dump a fund (cig786) and buy a stock
believe me when I say that I am no big fan of mutual funds, yet if you look at that particular fund, internationally balanced, with a below average mer of 1.6%, and one that has crushed the index over most periods, I wonder if your dislike of all funds has over taken prudence
with this size account, with the goals noted, I am very surprised you would not at least acknowledge the quality here
along with the international diversification carole alsohas had....
10.4% p.a. return over the past 15 years (fifteen years)
inception was dec 1996 and since then has an 9.78% annual return
(all net of fees)
I think your service is second to none, yet in this case I believe you are offside
(no, I do not work for CI funds, and my total fund holdings are 15% of assets, mostly international)
Robert
ps. this fund has out-performed many (arguably most) hedge funds which you recommend and they all have far far greater fees

Q: Good Morning Peter and
I am currently reviewing the RESP account I have set up for my 10 year old grandson. BNS and CIG786 are the only positions in the plan which amounts to about $20,000. I contribute at least $2500 per year to take advantage of the CESG. I am thinking of selling CIG due to high fees. I am thinking of buying SLF for income and a growth stock such as SW. As this is a long term portfolio I sure would appreciate some guidance and advice. Thank you.

Q: Great service, love the q&a forum, the tweets, the blog, and the fantastic education. I am learning every day and have done very well since joining last spring.
I am dividing this part of my financial plan into 50% Model portfolio and 50% Model income portfolio. I need to buy 4 of the Equity, SJ, BDI, CCL.B, and top up AYA, and also purchase 11 of the Income portfolio. I am just wondering how fast I should execute the purchases given, the fact that we are moving into the April, May, spring summer period now. I am not expecting a portfolio assessment. Thank you.

Q: Hello Peter, Ryan, and Team: Are you still as positive about Andrew Peller (ADW.A) as you've indicated in the past? It seems to have stalled, even though they've recently reported a strong quarter. I'm basically just breaking even on it and am wondering if there are better opportunities elsewhere.
Q: I have 30K in BNS and 18K in ZEB.Ijust added SLF 19K.My question is would it be better to sell ZEB and start buying other banks starting with TD and RY or buy XFN ,lower fees,more exposure or just stay withy ZEB.I am leaning towards replicating ZEB as you have mentioned before but wanted a second opinion.Thanks for all your wonderful advice.

Q: Hi I was wondering if you could recommend some ways to play Palladium on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
As I understand it Russia produces a large amount of the world's Palladium and with the current tensions was looking for a possible way to play this.

Q: Hello Peter.....This is an "add on" about Paul's question/5iR answer about brokerage accounts at two large full-service brokerages and also TD bank. My comment is that when I was considering a similar matter, I decided to separate my banking from my investing institutions. The driver was to keep the banking from reach into my investments to settle any dispute, and the investment arm settling an account by way of the related banking division. The documents for RBC were written up like this, so I decided to go with two separate diversified banking institutions. Thought I would pass this on for 5iR readers to consider...........Tom M
Q: Here's a meta-question: What are the risks involved in relying on the recommandation of 5iResearch and it's portfolio? In a sense, I'm actually asking about your bias and angle to investing. Hope you don't mind my question.
