Q: I looked up CYBR after watching the podcast, and it appears there are three ETF's, CYBR.B, CYBR.U, and CYBR (hedged). Which one was the ETF discussed, and what are the differences? Thanks.

Q: Not clear why this fund goes nowhere or down? Keeper for the next year? Seems odd in the days of hacking and security needs. Your thoughts please.

Q: I am interested in investing part of my TFSA in cyber security US/Canada stocks/ETFs.
Are Cyber Security ETF (CYBR-T) and Evolve Cyber Security ETF (CAD Hedged) good buy? Are CrowdStrike (NASDAQ:CRWD) and Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) good buy at their current price levels and are they high risk/high valuation, strong growth stocks?
Please provide the preference of your choices of three cyber security stocks and three ETFs and rank them, and brief reasons why you choose those stocks/ETFs. Thank you.

Q: Peter,

Cyber security seems to be a bigger and bigger threat. Is it worth getting involved in this space? If so, is it covered by the big tech names such as Microsoft, Apple etc or is it worth looking at specific ETF such as CYBR? Are there any stocks names that are interesting?

Thank you,

Q: I'm seeking an ETF to help with disruptive technologies.

I have mostly banks, REIT's, and other dividend paying stocks. Less in
technology, health care though I have a few ETF's covering the space.

What I don't have are ETF's that would protect against a possible
decline in my positions: such as disruptive financial stocks (such as
ARKF) and emerging internet, cybersecurity for example. I have very
little knowledge ion these areas but they could well be important
going forward, as a minority position (maybe 5 - 10% of my portfolio).

Thoughts?

Q: Hello
Thinking of retiring and drawing the dividends from our RRSP to replace income from employment until age 71.
Would it make sense to sell the first 4 mentioned and buy only EQL.
This move would give us $5,000. more yearly income from dividends (before taxes).
I mentioned selling VIG because of the currency variability and EQL pays a higher dividend..
We would still maintain growth ETFs like IWO, ICLN, KWEB, PSCH etc.
Thank you for your time.

Q: I would very much appreciate explaining the difference between ARK and Evolve Etf's. Are ARKs actively managed while Evolves are passively managed? Would you please choose two or three of each that have a balance between better growth and lower risk and provide good diversification.
Thanks.

Q: I have a well balanced portfolio, intentionally tech heavy. Recently I added 1/2% each of Cars, Hero, Cybr and Edge etfs. What do you think about selling my PEO and using it to bring my Evolve holdings up to 1% each?

Would you rank these as you can, for possible sale and recommended keepers for adding to, in this market? Long time subscriber and thank you for putting it all our there.

Q: It seems that cyber security will be of increasing focus and the industry should be somewhat recession resistance. Do you like either of these ETFs ? If not do you have a suggested stock or fund in this area. Thanks
