Q: I am trying to understand how an ETF like XIU works. Does a shareholder actually own any stocks when they own this etf, or do they just own shares in a fund that tracks the TSX 60, but doesn't actually own the individual companies?

Q: I note that dividends from this firm may be subject to withholding tax.
Can you name any Canadian companies who pay dividends/distributions in US dollars, and who might NOT be subject to holding tax?
I would prefer it if you knew firms who pay in excess of 5% dividends.
Thanks!

Q: You have remained quite positive on Hammond.
Can you advise where their products are produced (I suspect most products for NA are produced in Mexico, therefore subject to any Trump tarries on Mexico, but I may be wrong).
Also do they have the capability of doing some manufacturing in the US

Q: Hello 5i
Since last earnings and most recent Q&A in 5i (Nov 7) this share price has been falling.
Is the price action related to the previous earnings miss or earnings growth expectations changing due to business or Tariff concerns?
With a 5 year view on this name, does one just continue to hold through the downside volatility with anticipation for better future earnings and share price?

Q: The company news release sounds like optimistic talk covering up lower production. This being a new merger I cannot tell if this is rhetoric - spinning bad news, or progress being made, higher production and profitability around the corner? Your take on this please.

Q: A good portion of my smaller cap portfolio weighting is in these 4 stocks. They seem reasonably diverse sector wise but the first three have been trending down for 3 months or more, and EIF seems to be now following suit. From a lot of recent commentary I was thinking small and mid-cap names might have a bit of a tail wind, at least on a valuation basis. I know I shouldn’t focus on 3-6 months but still a bit “vexing” watching them slide. I’ve read the recent q&a on all of them, don’t see any alarming comments really, any new concerns I’m missing?
Q: What are some ETFs that do not pay dividends but value is instead increased through its share price? I have HSAV, looking for others. Thanks

Q: I have some fund from RRIF that I would like put into a TFSA and was just reading the latest issue of your ETF & Mutual Fund Update report. I am thinking of the above three ETFs and one stock. What are your thoughts. As a perspective, I would include some i2i fund if it was allowed in a TFSA.
Q: Greetings
In reference to my recent question on silver you neglected to give me your present favorite silver miners. I know that in the past you have liked Paas, but I wondered if maybe that has changed.
Thanks,
Ben.

Q: Could you please comment on the quarter - markets have reacted very positively. Given that strong jobs data should bolster consumer spending could you comment future prospects for Aritzia. I have a half position and am considering adding for my TFSA. It’s my only consumer position and am looking for growth with a multi-year horizon.
Thanks!
Thanks!
