Q: Hi Peter and Team,

In previous answers to questions you've said that 1) earnings, 2) interest rates, and 3) flows of capital (e.g., from bonds to stocks) tend to be the main drivers of market activity.

What is your take please on these drivers so far this year in Canada? Are any trends emerging?

Many thanks.

Michael

Q: Hello Peter and Staff
Should I be concerned re SLF. Since purchase, based mostly on recommendation here, plus some personal research, on Feb. 28 it has been steadily down - almost 5% - in less than 4 wks. Is there something new in the interim. Should I hang on hoping to make up that 5% and perhaps make a little more over the balance of the year. Thanks very much

Q: Recently you remarked that REITS could be considered part of the fixed-income portion of a portfolio. Could the same be said of Mortgage Investment Corps (e.g. MCAN, Timbercreek, Trez), or would they be part of the equity allocation?

What is the difference between Timbercreek Mortgage Investment Corp. (TMC) and Timbercreek Senior Mortgage Investment Corp (MTG)? (Same with Trez Capital: TZZ and TZS.)

Q: hello Peter & 5i team. I read today CSX after the harsh winter will reduce earnings by $0.10/share in Q1 and that execs are cautious on full-year profit and on if the company can reach its goal to achieve a two-year CAGR of 10% to 15%. I very recently bought shares at $27.69 and price as of today is $28.56. My feeling is to sell right now. Your thoughts please and as always, thank you for your time.
