Q: Dear Sirs,
What do you think of BMY at this time? Do you think it's too early to be buying these guys? I don't see anything they're doing regarding coronavirus treatment, so they may keep falling for awhile. They've done some good stuff recently: acquired Celgene (cancer) and Medarex (cancer) and have a leading drug partnered with Pfizer (prevention of blood clots caused by atrial fibrillation). They're down to about $49 from about $65 a month ago (like everyone). Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter and Ryan,
Can you offer some insights on why BPY.UN is down much more than its peers such as CAR.UN and CHP.UN? Is it wise to replace BPY. UN with either CAR.UN or CHP.UN at this moment? Thanks,
Martin

Q: God day Peter, Ryan and team. I don't exactly know why but I'm getting the "sense" we are majorly oversold and we are getting close to (give or take a hickup or two) exiting "Crazyville"... Do you get the same sense?

Q: This market is offering a wonderful opportunity to buy quality dividend paying companies at discounts that seem remarkable. I think this is a once in a decade opportunity. For the long term investor, who wants dividend income as well, this is a gift.

Q: HI there,

Two part question here. First, why is EXAS (in your opinion) being crushed so badly? It has fallen much more than GH. Something fundamentally wrong or one you would expect to bounce back hard and is thus worth adding to.

Secondly, would you suggest taking a 50% loss on EXAS to move to something like ABBV that pays a 7%+ dividend and seems safer? Jim Cramer advocates selling some stocks to move into more premium stocks that are also down and I'm wondering if this would be an example.

Please feel free to take 2 credits and provide complete answers to each part.

Q: Given the abysmal condition of the oil & gas sector and the apparent attempts of Russia and the Saudi's to further roil negative market activity, some long-term opportunities must be in the offing. Which oil & gas producers have the strongest balance sheet, lowest cost of production and are, generally, the most likely to survive these current circumstances?

Q: Just a follow up to my last question. I would assume that if the government mandated a short term rent holiday that land lords would also be made “whole” with respect to interest liabilities and wage compensation. Not to mention that this is a very short term need 1-3 months... is this not an over reaction for a company that has portfolio of long life income generating assets? I’m just wondering if I should average down. Thanks again.

Q: To several members, you've suggested an S&P500 etf. Among those are ZSP, XUS, VFV and HXS, all trading on the TSX in Canadian $. They all appear similar, except that HXS pays no dividend (why?). Then there's SPY, trading on the US exchange. It has dropped considerably more than the Canadian versions, and consequently has a higher dividend yield. Can you explain the discrepancy, please? Don't they all hold the same stocks? And there must be other S&P500 ETFs trading on US exchanges, besides SPY - could you please name some? Which version of these ETFs would you choose?
