Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Stuck in the country, maybe soon to be stuck in the province. Decided to explore my local lakes and decided to buy a boat. I figure a lot of others are in a similar position. A bit of further thinking got me into the idea of Brunswick Corp. Looks good by the numbers, and I want more US exposure....so would you be a buyer? My current portfolio is pretty conservative and I wouldn't mind mixing it up a bit, as I have 15-20 year time frame.
Thanks for your thoughts

Q: Today, Finland announced the introduction of a financial literacy strategy aimed at educating its population. This move is a direct result of increasing consumer credit defaults, a dangerous statistic for economic health.

The new program will rely on help from industry experts like bankers and insurance companies to create a curriculum. Social media influencers and TV personalities will help spread knowledge, too.

Finland seems to understand that you never really stop learning.

Thank you 5i for advancing Canada's financial literacy.

Q: Whatever happened to Automodular? When they were last in the news, they were trying to pivot from auto parts (had just lost the Ford contract) to wind turbine manufacturing. I seem to remember they were left with a sizeable cash pool? With the growing emphasis on wind power, supported by new leadership in the US, are they likely to resurface? The management seemed to be very shareholder-focused.

Q: Hi 5i
Rogers had earnings today and stock down around -6% so far.
Been holding for 3yr with the outlook for some growth and stable dividend....however still down -12% and dividend about 3.4%.
What is its outlook going forward? Is it a lost cause?
Would you continue to hold or not?
Could you suggest a suitable replacement in this sector canada or USA with better potential upside and dividend. I own small position in BCE also down, -10%..lol
Thx
Jim

Q: Can you comment on MITK earnings today. Do you like it moving forward?

I currently hold a 3% position in REAL (currently down 25+% since purchase in TFSA). Would a switch to MITK make sense? Which of the two do you prefer today? Or is there other names you would recommend suggest switching to today?

Thanks so much!

Q: My broker's website crashed again this morning. You would need to book off a full day to try to get hold of them on the phone. Hmmm, doesn't this sound a lot like 2008/9? We know how that ended.
