Q: I am interested in buying an ETF that would cover the S&P 500 index. From looking at previous questions, I see 2 that are talked about, namely VFV and VSP. I was planning on buying VSP but I find the volume is very low compared to VFV and also VSP is CAN hedged(which I don't quite understand).

Can you give me a brief idea of the difference between the 2 and which would be the best to purchase long term?

Or are there other S@P 500 ETFs that you would suggest with a pretty good dividend?

Thank You,
Andrew

Q: Baytex has significant price swings which I guess are based on oil price changes and leveraged by its debt. Up 7.55 % yesterday. I have traded it several times in a TFSA including a sale yesterday. Do you think short sales or short covering are a factor? Do you have any other comments about the price movement other then that caution is in order.

Q: Hello Peter and 5i team,
I want to add a technology name to my TFSA.
Sylogist looks interesting as it has a nice dividend and the technicals look good. I am concerned it is too small and it is vulnerable to interest rate risks.
Absolute software also has a nice dividend and has no debt. Is it ready to grow?
Do you still think Constellation is doing almost everything right?
I sold Enghouse for a nice profit at higher prices. Is it time to get back into this name?
Open text has a small dividend
Which of these companies are your favourite for stability and growth .
thank you as always for your great service.

Q: It would appear that a merger for AYA is no longer in the cards (please excuse the pun). What are your views, then, on the company going forward? Is is now fairly valued or are there reasonable growth prospects?

The two concerns I have are that the inability to find a partner suggests that there is a lack of value/interest in the company and secondly, that the management in place does not have Baasov's vision or ability to grow the firm.

Are either of these concerns founded?

Appreciate your insight.

Paul F.

Q: I have a question about Grenville Strategic Royalty's announcement yesterday about their stopping their dividend (which I expected) and their new partnerships (which I did not expect). Do you think that these new partnerships are a good idea? Do you think that their debenture is a safe investment at this time (as part of a diversified portfolio)?
