Q: Hi to everyone at 5i

I must echo everyone else's sentiments as to the incredible value of this service.

I particularly like the idea of investing in infrastructure assets that are located not only in Canada but elsewhere around the globe. I have been researching both BIP.UN and BGI.UN; my understanding is that BIP.UN directly owns infrastructure assets whereas BGI.UN invests in publicly traded global companies that hold such assets

Would you prefer to own the assets directly or indirectly? Or would it be wise to diversify with a position in each. I have no particular investments of this type except for a small position in Altagas and I have a long-term hold objective.

Thank you.

Q: Can you please give your opinion on Dundee International REIT (TSX: DI.UN)?

Do you see any major risks out there? In particular, how do you feel about the interest rate risks and the foreign exchange risks given that almost 100% of their portfolio is based in Germany which is Euro-denominated?

Q: BBD.A Bombardier I know you are not particular about this stock (tried looking up past comments BBD.A but search was empty -- not sure why). But looking at various parts of the air industry it seems everything has been on a tear. Cyclically speaking do think this an interesting time for air industry? If so, why would BBD.A be the one to avoid?

Q: Hi Peter, I have set aside a downpayment for a future home purchase in the next 6-12 months, and rather than earning 1% in a 'high interest' savings account, what would you recommend I do with the cash? Obviously I would want this cash to be safe, but at the same time earn a higher return than simply parking it in a savings account. Thanks

Q: Hi,

Do you think the hype around 3D companies is justified. Are companies DDD and SSYS good buys even at these inflated P/E multiples. What do you think about this industry 2 years down the road. Thanks

Q: Hi guys. I know so little about individual US stocks I've pretty much decided to go with ETFs. Along with an S&P ETF, which sectors do you think I should look at for the near future? I currently own RHS, IHI, and XTN.

Q: I'm sitting on some Barrick shares that I bought a while ago before the big drop earlier this year. I want to maintain exposure to the senior gold sector, but I'm wondering if I should hold onto the Barrick shares or if I should sell them and buy XGD with the proceeds for diversification.

What's your opinion?

Thanks.
