Q: With the tariff war and Trump creating so much uncertainty, how does an investor handle this? It seems the tough approach of Doug Ford will only anger Trump and create more problems for Canada. With new terrible headlines on a daily basis and market reacting with more selling, how does a long term investor, who needs income from investments rationalize staying in the market? What could turn this around and how deep of pullback do you think we could see and/or how long of a bear market? Thank you for your insight!

Credit Suisse X-Links Silver Call ETN IOPV (SLVO $82.83)
Q: I read with interest your answers to Alex and Robert this morning regarding SLVO and David Rosenberg's thoughts. I have a great deal of respect for Mr. Rosenberg . Does 5i feel that SLVO would roughly track the gold index ? I do not see any covered call gold equivalent ETF unless you know of one ? The closest I can find is AMAX which is gold miners ..... Having said all that which does 5i feel is the better choice to follow Mr Rosenbergs thesis ? SLVO or AMAX ? I do like the covered call component of both over a straight up Gold security like PHYS ..... Thanks for your terrific service .......

Global X Copper Miners ETF (COPX $43.45)
Q: Question on increasing my copper exposure:
I already own some TECK.B, but concerned about the (approx.) 26X PE ratio. Does this concern you?
I'm considering COPX. Yes, comparing an ETF to a stock is a bit apples / oranges. If I believe that International stocks in general will outperform going forward, is this a good choice. I do realize it does have some North American holdings - including TECK.B itself - but the aggregate PE appears to be better value compared just TECK.B.
Perhaps selling TECK.B and just holding all of COPX is a better choice despite the (I think) 0.65 MER. Your thoughts and comments on all this ?

Hamilton U.S. Bond YIELD MAXIMIZER TM ETF (HBND $13.10)
Q: Hello 5i team,
I currently have a balanced position in HBND in my TFSA for income (Using TFSA as an income source in general). Before HBND I used to have HYI as an asset class that used to track US high yield bonds, but was shut down last year. I have a few questions.
1)Is HBND an approximate substitute for HYI for this asset class?
2)Also HBND is not even a year old but do you have an idea of the NAV of the ETF?
HBND pays a decent amount monthly but I am not sure of the sustainability of the payout.
Thank You,
Andrew

Q: Can you provide a current outlook for Sylogist?
Q: SLVO, a CC silver ETN, does not seem to be in your database. I am looking to add this to my precious metal holdings but want the higher income. Yahoo reports the yield at 22%, which seems absurd. Do you have data on longer term avg yield and what do you think of this in general for income oriented silver exposure? Thank-you.
