Q: Good day...thanks for all the great guidance that has made us far better investors than we were before joining five I....my question is ....we have a 1% position in IKM at about the present price...firstly what do you think of this company and its positioning in a positive oil cycle and does a 2 - 2% allocation make sense in the context of us having most of the balanced portfolio with some of the income and four from the growth portfolio and we do not own WCP....some help in our decision making would be greatly appreciated....Eugene

Q: Why do most Asset Allocation models or discussions include BOND funds or ETFs but not GICs? Is not a laddered portfolio of GICs an alternative ?

Q: I have a question regarding SIS's dividend. Maybe I am mistaken, but most ''growth by acquisitions'' type of companies usually either pay a small dividend or no dividend at all. CSU, ATD or GUD/Paladin come to mind. The logic being that more value is created by investing the money than giving back directly to shareholders. SIS, on the other hand, pays an high dividend that has been growing quite rapidly in the last year. What is your opinion on this? Have you ever asked them why they pay this amount of dividend or have they ever explained it? I understand they usually sound quite confident in the future but still, I am curious.

Thank you!
