Q: Hi 5i,

regarding PTF. Can you explain why Penderfund just doesn't offer this as a mutual fund like their other offerings? Can you please provide any comparable stocks like this worth looking at? You mentioned fees are high but can you please state what they are?

Q: I would like an ETF to take advantage of the pull back in tech stocks. I generally like the holdings of XIT except for the huge position in CSU (I bought some anyway because I've always been wrong on CSU). Its a small position which I would like to build on but I would also like to add some US exposure - preferably CAD since I don't feel like exchanging more funds right now. Suggestions?

Also, what is your current opinion of PTF? I only recognize a few of their holdings and have no idea how to assess, apart from noting their reasonably good history.

Q: It looks like PTF is trading at a nice discount to NAV now and they have been buying back some shares. Is this a decent time to buy it? What do you think of it? Thanks

Q: What do you think of this fund for a long term hold? It seems to hold small private tech companies and hold them through going public or being bought by a larger entity. I read somewhere that there is huge demand for small and medium sized Canadian tech companies.
