Q: Looking to deploy some cash and I'm considering either CAE or Open Text in light of their recent share price declines.
Which one of the two would you consider to have the most potential for share price appreciation over the next 3-5 years, and why?
Appreciate your thoughts, Rick

Q: I have quite a bit of cash in GICs & HISAs to invest. I am trying to reconcile buying at the top of the market vs waiting for a drop (which is difficult to time). I do not need the funds in the near future. I am thinking that if I buy now at the top of the market and then the market drops, I can always sell for a capital loss and immediately repurchase a similar ETF that trades in a different index provided the ETF is held in a non-registered account . If I take this course of action, then I would actually be no further behind vs waiting for a market drop (other than the ~4.5 I would get in a GIC or HISA). Is my thinking logical? Am I missing something?

Q: I'd like to increase investments in industrial, consumer discretion and consumer staples and also increase U.S. holdings.
I'm considering Amazon and COST for consumer names - are there other U.S. names you would recommend in these sectors and please suggest a U.S. industrial as well.

Q: I would like to make a small investment in India; now the most populated country on earth. I like ZID that has returned about 81% over the past 5 years, but the market cap is only $122M - is this ETF too small? I like FIH.U with a trailing P/E of 6.23 and market cap of $1.94B, but it has only increased 13% over the past 5 years - can FIH.U only be bought in USD? Would appreciate your thoughts on ZID and FIH.U, or perhaps you have another suggestion regarding investment in India.
Thanks!

Q: I'm evaluating these 4 microcaps, I'd like to add to add a small position in the one that has the most potential for returns. Ignoring the risk of these being very small market caps. Can you rank these in order that you would buy if you were looking for a microcap with big potential? Or if you would avoid any of them all together you can say so. Thx

Q: I have a position in TOI and with the recent run, have some decent profit. You have mentioned a few times that TOI is expensive. Does it make sense to sell half my position and purchase LMN or do you think there is some positive momentum here and let TOI run a little more?
