Q: I own HEWJ and ZDM as my International exposure (5% of my portolio). Neither are doing well, especially after the Brexit vote and I'd like to replace them with ETFs with a more positive outlook for the next 2-3 years. Your thoughts and recommendations please!
Q: Good morning,
I own GWO and IFC for an aggregate position of about 3.5% in my portfolio. What do you recommend as a guideline allocation for "insurance" in one's portfolio?
If I'm low at 3.5%, would you recommend I add to my existing holdings or initiate a position in Sun Life?
Thank you,
Robert

Q: I have held Badger for approximately 18 months and it has done very little. It also has a small dividend so it is not paying me to be patient. Do you see any catalyst for the stock in the next 6 to 12 months?
Q: Hi 5i team:
You chose Endeavour and Great Panther Silver for the question posed by David.
Now that the dust has settled (?) with SSO's acquisition, any thoughts about it?
Worth adding to existing position or simply leave it alone? I am down about 10% or so.

Q: Peter and team:
I am currently down about 20% on TFI in a well balanced long term hold portfolio.
I am considering cutting my losses and buying NFI. Would you consider these in the same "sector", and what is you opinion of this switch.
My concern is how much upside is left in NFI. I have owned it in my kids RESP and done well (2.5x), but am wondering how much "growth" is left.
Than you as always for a great service!
Phil

Q: Hi,
You added NFI with a 2.5% weighting. Would you be comfortable recommending someone add it as a full position (ie. 4%)
Thanks

Q: Hi Peter
Don't publish this if you don't think it is appropriate.
Last night I went to the Cineplex and bought tickets for the new Tarzan movie. It was in 3-D and had the new D-Box technology. The two tickets cost $43.00 without food or drink.
I found the seat jerking up and down and sideways very annoying. Probably just me, but if anyone is thinking of investing in the technology they should go try it out first. Luckily I could turn it off. Good, fun movie otherwise.

Q: Hello,
RCH has moved up nicely, presumably in anticipation of recent earnings. Can you please comment on their numbers and provide thoughts on the company going forward. You have considered it to be somewhat expensive in the past and wondered if this is still the case. I own it and plan to hold. Would you agree?
