Q: Hi folks, thanks for your helpful replies. I'm considering BMO's preferred share ETF, ZPR. It holds only rate reset pfds and uses a 5 year ladder. I think it would be a safe investment with a decent yield. I was poking around a few sites and came across prefinfo.com in which the following is noted about it's Malachite Aggressive Preferred Fund. "...for instance it is not required to hold such classes of shares as floating rate issues which are expected to underperform in the foreseeable future." I was of the view that the reset to a floating rate provides a mechanism to maintain the yield, provided the rate is somewhere in the range of 3% over a 5 year Canada, which is fairly common. What do you think about the reset factor as it pertains to yield and of the ZPR? Thanks Tim....

Q: Currently, the oil patch future in Canada is largely predicated on the availability of more pipeline transportation. In this regard, is it a safe bet to invest in ENB,TRP and, to a lesser degree, in IPL.UN ? If so, which one is more promising, and why ? In addition, do you think that approval of the Keystone pipeline is a sure bet (likely to be announced in late March) ?

Q: Hello Peter, can I get your opinion on the likelyhood of inflation rising significantly over the next year or two? Do you have any suggestions on what to invest in during a high inflation period and any stocks that you would recommend during such a period? I am specifically looking at Bei.un, but it looks like I might have missed that opportunity. Any sectors you would recommend staying away from? TIA, Gerald
