Q: Analytics tells me I need to transfer about $200000 from Can. to US. What are your 4 best picks at the moment non-tech but with growth and maybe a dividend from 4 different sectors. As you know you have already provided ETFS but I still prefer individual stocks. Thanks

Q: I have accounts with Wood Gundy and Investors Edge, so consequently had a mishmash of preferred share holdings. In an effort to build a better yielding, laddered, preferred share portion of my portfolio, I sold all current preferred positions and am planning a ladder with the above noted shares in a non-registered account. These will constitute about 20% of my total portfolio. Do you have any concerns with the choices, or rate resets in general ? I rate resets have not performed well, but the yields are quite attractive.

Q: Good Morning: I asked this question a couple of days ago but perhaps it got lost somehow. I hold two different PPL preferred shares and rec'd a few days ago an invitation re both of these to vote on whether or not I am in favour of the decision to sell more shares in each. I have to assume the purpose is to raise more capital even though the original no. of shares was probably capped. I confess that I have no idea whether as a current holder this is a positive, negative or neutral prospect. I'm hoping you can shed some light on what's at stake here for me and how I should therefore vote. The prefs in question are ppl. pr. c and ppl. pr.e. Thanks, Don

Q: ZHY: high yield bond fund. Sitting on a fair bit of cash in RIF & RRSP from accumulated dividends. Don't want to deploy into buying more shares (dividend growers) as I think there may be a buying opportunity in the near future: uncertain economy and interest rate policy. Mild recession - rates the same or may go down, and if no recession rates may go up again at some point. Each scenario will have an opposite effect of the price of this ETF. Best case please.
