Q: One of my favorite features of your website is the ability to maintain a 'favorites' list. Since the upgrade I haven't been able to figure out how to add questions/answers to 'my favorites'. Please advise.
Q: Does your Interactive Chart Tool plot the security price including or excluding distributions? It would be nice to have option to choose either one. I find that most web charting tools include distributions which can be misleading when one wants to determine a price to buy or sell a security at. Thanks!
Q: What is you opinion of the performance of DFA Global 60EQ-40FI Portfolio - Class F
Q: We are a retired couple relying on investment income after a number years of dismal results from "wealth managers". Our portfolio is likely overly aggressive with about 80% in equities and would like to move toward safer ground in 2018 focusing on companies that will be less impacted when the inevitable correction occurs. Your company review metrics include a rating based on recessionary earning and I would be very interested seeing a report of 5i coverage that includes not only the overall company ratings but all the subsequent parts.
I would also very much appreciate a few names that you feel appropriate given our circumstance and general comments. I have started a list of (flight to safety) equities that thus far includes RSI, SIS, T, GUD, FNV, ENB, TD, L. V, BA,
New site looks great and we really appreciate having real pro's to gather market insite from. Keep up the great work!

Q: Hello
I am considering investing with a robo advisor, Invisor.ca. They are certainly not WealthSimple in terms of size or AUM, but they offer portfolio choices that suit my needs.
My investments will be held at a third party custodian, Fidelity Clearing Canada and I am told that there is CIPF insurance in place.
My questions are as follows:
1) Is the CIPF insurance coverage upto $ 1 million?
2) Does the $1 million CIPF insurance cover all my accounts aggregated together i.e. RRSP,+TFSA+ non-registered etc. or is a it $1 million per each account?
3) Who is the investment dealer in this situation - Invisor or Fidelity?
4) In the event of investment dealer insolvency, how long would it typically take for my funds or holdings to be restored to me?
5) Would 100% of my investment be restored to me in the event of investment dealer insolvency, as long as I have up to $ 1 million with them?
Please deduct as many credits as appropriate
Thank you

Q: Hi Peter,
Kudos to you and Ryan and team for the great upgrades to the website.
It looks like tax-loss selling this year could present some interesting opportunities, especially in certain resource sectors like precious metals and natural gas that have been beaten down. I have been compiling my own buy list but would be interested in seeing what yours looks like.
Please provide three names in each of the following sectors that you would look at during the next few weeks of TLS: [1] precious metals, [2] energy, [3] general canadian small to mid cap.
Also can you comment on the period of tax-loss selling and how consistent this is year to year?)

Q: Where can you find information on Canadian warrants? the financial post warrant data seems to be no longer available, canadianwarrants.com hasn't been updated since 2015, and can't find much on the tsx website or globeinvestor. I would like to find something similar to what the financial post data showed listing all warrants with exercise price and and time left etc.
thanks Tom

Q: Hi - is it time to get out of the Canadian / American banks in general I have some good profits in Bank Of America + Citi Bank+ BNS . The American banks seem to be reacting negatively to the perceived upcoming tax reforms - They have mostly been down 5 days in a row. Thinking should get to the sidelines as far as the banks are concerned.
