Q: Hi.

Comparing Global ETFs (XEF, VXC) [7-year AARR ~6.3%] versus MFs (RBF1067, RBF1370, MAW120, AIM1593) [10-year AARR net MER ~10%].

Hard to compare these with the tools I have at my disposal, but it appears that smart management of Global investments maybe be worth the MER ding. Your thoughts?

Haven't owned in MF in years, but maybe it makes sense here...

Thank you.

Q: I've noticed on several occasions over the years that subscribers have "called you to task" for advise that didn't work out. I can understand their frustration, particularly if they're down a fair bit because they followed your advise.
I've been an investor now since the 1970's and I don't look at it that way at all. You don't claim to be right all the time. It's a constant assessment of risk versus reward and sometimes it doesn't work out. As I've told my own adviser, who I have a lot of respect for, she doesn't have to be right about an investment. What I do expect is honesty. That's what I pay for and I get. If she was right every time, what would she need people like me for.
Similarly, if you were right all the time, would't you be sitting on your 300 foot yacht on the Riviera sipping Scotch. What would you need us for? Just keep on giving us honest opinions, even the riskier ones that sometimes disappoint.

Q: Hi,
A question about the webinar yesterday on "how to pick a stock in 2018": How do you put the 20% rule from the "Lessons from some Experts" in practice ? Do you sell when the market(or a particular stock) corrects for 20% or more ?

Q: I am a growth investor with an 8 to 10 year timeline. Regardless of sector weightings, in the current market would you either start a new half position in Parkland Fuel OR top up to from a 4% to a full 5% weighting in Kinaxis, Savaria Spin Master and Premium Brands? Thanks in advance, Greg.
