Q: I am looking at setting up an educational fund for our 1 year old grandson with an initial
5k investment. Are there any tax implications when an RESP is set up by a grandparent and if so, would an investment account in trust be more appropriate?
Either way, which holdings would you suggest I start with.

Thanks for taking the agony out of some these decisions!

Q: Hello, I just joined and was hoping to find a report on ESI. As a dividend investor, ESI looks very attractive given it's current yield and valuation. More important, it's record of growing dividends for 19 consecutive years is hard to ignore. Yet, I hesitate. It's not just the lack of growth and the recent misses, the FCF looks problematic. Can I have your opinion? Thanks

Q: Do you think Surge Energy is worth holding at current levels given the risk of a dividend cut? I understand their hedging program but as investors continue to panic sell the yield has become noticeably high...knowing the company the way you do, what is your best advice.

Q: On BNN you mentioned that we were probably in the sixth inning for auto related stocks. Are you making a correlation to baseball? Or does this refer to 6th inning out of 10 in business terms.

Q: With just a 1% weighing in crew and the apparent stock momentum on crew, would you buy more to average down the cost. I know you prefer stocks that are going up but it seems to have some momentum.

Q: What is happening to the price of silver?
Most if not all major silver producers have an all in costs that are higher than the $17 spot silver price.
Is this a buying oppotunity that comes once in a lifetime, or a slippery slope to the poor house? How long could this inverse last? Look at First Majestic's chart, it's getting very expensive to me..
Thanking you in advance..
