Q: Hi 5i.

Could I have your thoughts on CU.
I'm thinking about adding this to my Income cash account.
I do have some FTS and EMA in the account now.
What percent would you recommend as a max for utilities holdings in this account.
I have BEP.UN and AQN in other accounts already.

Thanks

Q: MPL printed an article today from the BMG Group about a gold backed petro Yuan, this is one paragraph from the article.
In November 2017, China, India, Russia, Brazil and South Africa, the major producers and users of gold, agreed to establish their own gold trading system using their own currencies, thereby bypassing the US dollar. Implementation will begin in 2018.
Your opinion please, Thanks

Q: Hello team, I have heard through the grapevine,( employees in mgmt positions) that there may be a big shakeup in the top level. Apparently the ceo of Sprectra, now chairman of enb (Gregory Ebel) is not happy with the status of Enbridge and has indicated that he may take over as CEO of Enbridge and replace Al Monaco. Have you heard any such rumors. Obviously the market is not happy with Enbridge as it has declined more than the other Canadian pipelines. Does the market know something that we don't?

Q: Hi There,
The government recently eliminated the use of Corporate Class Funds to save taxes.
Do you think the government would also eliminate the use of Swap Based ETF products like Horizon's offers? Have you heard or read of any such rumours?
