Q: Just read an article in the Globe and Mail, and other articles in The Economist:

"Investors have bet heavily on the U.S. economy. That’s not a great idea", by Ian McGugan

Given the concerns about the US these days (huge and increasing debt, failure of rule of law, outsized weighting in the world stock market, unhappy bond market, declining USD), should one reduce the exposure to US Indexes in a passive indexing portfolio with a long term horizon (5-10 years)?

If so, where would be a better place right now to put this money? Europe? Gold? Cash? Other?

Thanks in advance for your opinion.

Q: Hello. I work abroad and get paid in USD. I send regular transfers to my Cad dollar trading platform but also have a USD trading platform. In your opinion (not advice) would it be smarter to keep exchanging my USD for cheap CAD dollars for canadian stocks with the expectation that the CAD will eventually rise, or to move directly into my usd acccount for trading in us stocks? or a split? Thank you for your service.

Q: Hello,

How do I track the purchase buy backs of a company? More specifically, I'm curious to know how GSY and Enterprise Group (E.TO) are faring in their buy back programs.

You sometimes send out a link to websites but I can't find the post so I apologise if this is a repeat question.

Thanks.

Q: Would you please provide your top four precious metal investments in relatively safe jurisdictions? I already hold PAAS, AEM, FNV and a small amount of bullion. I would like to diversify a little more in this sector.
Would you recommend waiting for a dip in price?
With appreciation,
Ed
