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

Q: Hi Peter & team - I've seen you, and others, say there is still lots of money "parked on the sidelines". How do you know this? Where is it parked? And how do you know it will be deployed in the market? Thank you!

Q: I've noticed you do not have any covered call ETFs in your income portfolio. If not appropriate in your minds, are there any good situations for this type of investment, and if so, when? What are the PROs amd CONS? What are the better strategies or alternatives?

Q: Folks i'm assisting my daughter in deciding how to allocate some cash in the market around $50K. This is new to her so she is as expected very conservative at the moment but wants to garner better income than a savings account. Thses funds are in a TFSA. I was thinking maybe suggesting 30% in SPLT, 30% in CBIL, and the rest in ZLB,XEI/XIU. Wondering what your suggestion might be.

Q: Magna, Parkland, and Premium Brands have seen significant declines, making them look like attractive dividend stocks with yields around 4%. What do you think about buying them for their dividends? Is there a risk that these stocks could fall further? Which one would be the best to buy for its dividend and potential recovery, and which one should I avoid? Please rank them.

Q: Good afternoon - the recent runup in equities has me looking to re-balance and add more bond exposure. I currently have positions in XLB, XBB and HYG. Can you suggest bond positions ( likely ETF's) in Canada and the US, please? Just add to the existing Canadian positions? What about HYG? Time to move?

Many thanks

Q: I'm trying to find reasons not to buy a little taste of this. With all of the oockroaches etc hiding here, what are the odds of a takeover? Would another company step in here and purchase and if so, what could a projected sale price look like? At what point does the risk/reward make sense if a buyout is unlikely?

My thought is that if the company/governance is terrible but the business is excellent there has to be a price that makes sense but admittedly I am just looking for a reason to do it!
