Q: I believe that with important monetary mass increase in the USA vs China (no increase in China ) , the yuan will rise significantly in the future; if I buy a Chinese stock on US market , will I get the advantage of the exchange rate and of a future strong yuan ? nb:In this sense Chinese bonds could also be promising.. Any general comments on this point of vue also?

Q: Seasons greetings from Nunavut... I'd like to start positions, however all are currently overvalued according to MS - I understand its difficult to value these types of stocks. So far I have a little of all of them, except TTD. Should I just buy??? Or wait till they pull back? Are there some you would buy now and others you'd wait and see?

Q: I'm down 60% on all three of these and finally taking the tax write off. The good news is that I can use it this year. Would you consider any worth buying back again after 30 days or not ? QST has been showing signs of life recently and perhaps CXI will recover when the world starts to travel again ? What would you do ?

Q: Good morning, ENGH announced a special dividend of $1.50. I believe this amounts to ~ $83 million, representing ~ 34% of their Oct/20 year-end cash balance. One might have hoped the ENGH Board foresaw 'better' ways to use this cash to advance the firm's market position. 5i has been positive on ENGH for some time. Does this large dividend change 5i's views on ENGH in any meaningful way as a solid investment going forward? Thank you. Edward

Q: The reported 'dividend' yield for BPY is reported as 9.2%. However, am I correct to say that this is not a 'dividend' like a dividend from the Royal Bank.
Is the BPY dividend actually a blend of interest, dividend, return of capital and 'other' income? Please confirm this observation to be correct or not.
An amateur DIY investor such as myself can be fooled if not careful by simply looking at the 'dividend yield' as reported in daily stock quotes.
What got me questioning the yield was the old adage "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is". As mentioned in my previous question, the high 'dividend' put up a red flag.
Regads,

Q: I like picking stocks, but I am also looking for a way to automatically invest 10% of my monthly income into some sort of index fund. Do you know what’s the best option for this? Is there a way to achieve this without having to pay a $9.99 transaction fee each time I buy something (RBC direct investing)? Many thanks and happy holidays! Love your service!

Q: Hello, this is in regard of Roy’s comment about the share splits of BEP.UN. I had the exact same situation with a calculated odd number of shares. In my case it has not been rounded up, so I phoned my online broker and they told me that the 0.5 missing share of BEP.UN would be paid in cash. I just check my account and an amount of $24.95 has been deposited. Gervais

Q: I would like your opinion on these 3 stocks. I know HAI has just IPO on Toronto Exchange but has been around for a few years. I notice AT has just had a good run and wonder if I should hold off or if it is a good company, just bite the bullet it shouldn't matter.
Also I notice MGNI is similar to the other 2 is that right?
Could you please rank them in order best to worst. if you were to buy 2 which and why?
Thanks John
