Q: Hi Folks,
any thoughts to adding Topicus to your portfolios any time soon ? It's down to $58 as I type this, what would be a good entry point ?
Thanks
Q: Yesterday, you mentioned that index funds must sell their shares. The stock yesterday started at $66 and now it is below $58. From the 39.4M shares outstanding, 3.5M have been traded so far in 2 days.
Is there a magic volume number to which we can say the the funds have finished selling?
Was this expected to drop after opening because of the reason which I have stated?
Thanks
Q: Hi 5i,
Can you explain what's going on with STC these past few days. My online brokerage site shows the price fluctuating but also shows the trading halt still in place and no volume. Is all this unusual?
Thanks,
Peter
I realize that Topicus shares issued to CSU holders are treated as a dividend, but I'm having a hard time finding a book value of these shares, ie dividend value.
Do you know what we should use for this book value?

Q: My question has to do with personal estate taxes or the tax grab by the us tax authorities on a individuals estate holding personal US property (US stocks). Can one avoid this problem by just simply holding Canadian ETF's (trading only in Canada) that hold US equities. For example BMO ZQQ, or Vanguard VSP. Any guidance or help from 5i or it's members would be much appreciated.
I am considering purchasing either PGF860 or PGF260 for my RIF and TFSA accounts.
Morningstar describes both as Global Small/Mid/Cap equity mutual funds but, PGF860 appears to have much fewer holdings. May I please have your thoughts on these two funds and whether they might be good considerations for my two different accounts. Might one be better suited for each account?
Thanks for the terrific service!

Q: If I buy:
ZWC ((BMO CDN HIGH DIV COV ETF) for Canadian exposure and income,
ZWS (BMO US HIGH DIV COVER ETF) for US exposure and income, and
ZWE (BMO EUROPE HI DIV COVER CALL HEDGED CAD) for European exposure and income,
that will give me about 7%+ income and exposure to about 120 very decent world wide companies. As a retiree, would I need to do anything else?
Q: Hello guys,
I'm sorry to ask this question, as I bet you have answered it before and it's in your question history, but, would you mind recommending an ETF or two that follow cryptocurrency?
Thank you,

Q: John O'Connell commented at the money show that ENB is a ponzi scheme based on its overpaying dividends and then having to go to the market to raise the necessary capital to complete their capex plans. Sounds a little harsh. Comment?
Q: TU closed yesterday at $20.46 US. The IPO is set at $25.00. Are the shares different. What is the relative rights and terms between the two. The new issue does not seem to be impacting the valuation of TU ?
Q: I have been looking at this for some time and it (appears to me anyway) a great way to get broad exposure to the banks with some limited leverage. What is your take on this ETF??
Q: I am considering MFI for a consumer defensive position and wonder what your take on the company is - buy or avoid or wait? I have also thought about Loblaws. Which, if either, is a good choice?
thanks
