Q: Not sure if this is within the scope of your service, but can you explain why a country like Japan with a huge amount of debt-to-GDP has not had a collapse of it's currency from YCC or huge inflation? How is it that increased debt has let to deflation? I've heard some reasons over the years but none that make sense.

The reason to ask is our Canadian, European and US governments also have a huge debt burden, increasing interest payments on this debt and a continuing increase in debt over the foreseeable future. How could any rational investor have confidence in this debt/credit based system? Will we turn Japanese? (to quote the Vapor's song!) What factors would push us into deflation vs inflation?

Q: Hello. What do you think of a switch from NWC to AW.UN (both in an RSP)?

NWC is currently 1.4% of our portfolio at a gain of 24% (40% with dividends).
AW.UN is currently 1.7% of our portfolio at a slight loss of -3%, but with a gain when including dividends.

Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i
As a long time holder of CSU I'm wondering about what % of CSU TOI and LMN one might own. Without giving me specific guidance can you comment on the pros and cons of an equal weighting of each (ei 33% of each).
Thanks

Q: (as a follow up to an earlier question this morning where you figured this was a sell)

not trying to pick a fight yet would you consider that, as one of the only profitable mso/pot companies, it seems like it would be a good spec at today's $10?

the chart certainly looks like it has been bottomed out

would not the potential/eventual change in the US banking legislation not be considered a catalyst that could easily see this double or triple from $10?

(as an aside, last fall when there was rumour of a leg. change, it quickly doubled)


asking for a friend........

Q: Hello, Shopify stock dropped almost 7%, in Today's trading. Partly it could be attributed to decline in most Technology stocks. But, I was wondering if the patent infringement suit pending in a Texas court also played a part. It was also reported today that Shopify has filed a motion to force Lower 48 IPPLC, to reveal its backers/fund, as this company has a history of such filings against prominent companies with the intention of extorting money for their group.(Last one filed by this co against INTEL was eventually dropped in a similar situation). Not sure, I have all the facts.

If you think, it's only short term noise, does the price drop present a buying opportunity ?

Thank You
