Q: Hi 5i, Is it a good time to invest in a biotech ETF such as XBI? 5 to 10 year hold. Would you wait for the markets to stabilize?
Thanks

Q: Two part question, deduct as many points as you like.
I'm just wondering if anyone at 5I has glanced at the 195 page(!!) short report that Spruce Point put out last week on Stryker. Anything in particular to be concerned about? I own it in my RRSP, and have been slowly adding to my position. It is the only stock that I own in the health care sector.
Also, what would be your top pick, CA or US in this sector, if I wanted to diversify my portfolio?
Thank you for all that you do.

Q: I am interested in investing in some US ETFs. I would put these into an RRSP account. Would there be tax consequences re the CRA or IRS in doing so? I imagine that there would be tax complications if they were held in a margin account.

Q: Hi Team,
Following a question about Canadian and US health care sector opportunities, I am trying compare and contrast IBB (iShares Nasdaq Biotechnology ETF) with XBI (SPDR S&P Biotech ETF). I realize the former focuses on large companies and has more concentrated positions in top holdings while the latter focuses on small companies with a more even distribution of holdings. What are your thoughts about a risk/return trade off between the two ETFs and what timeframe would you be considering to hold either one for an investment thesis to pan out? If you had to pick one, which would it be and why?
Many thanks, Michael
