Q: You recently replied rather positively to a question regarding using Wealthsimple as à brokerage. I have tried them out on a small scale and found them to be very good. I have vaguely considered switching our whole portfolio over there. I hesitate, though, because of the large and established companies like TD. Since you see Wealthsimple as safe as these, do you see any great advantages of these larger companies, which would be an impediment?
Thanks
Thanks

Q: portfolio strategy question
I have adopted a dividend investment strategy of investing predominantly in canadian dividend paying equities and as expected am overweight in financials, telecom and utilities, this strategy allows me to sleep well at night, I am looking at enough dividend income from the portfolio to retire on and not have to touch the principle investment.
besides the lack of diversification in geography and sector. can you give me your opinion about concerns you may have with such a strategy and what you would suggest doing otherwise ?

Q: Instead of buying back shares, would it not have been better for the company for insiders to sell some of their shares to increase liquidity?
Q: It's been almost a year since I asked about this one (QTIP - Mackenzie US TIPS Index ETF (CAD-Hedged)). I've held it for over 3 years and it has certainly dropped (I'm down about 11%) and over the last 12 months it just seems to be flatlined between $ 83 and $87. Why should I want to keep this one vs. just selling it and moving $$ to something paying a higher dividend (maybe BCE or ENB) ? Or will dropping interest rate finally be the catalyst to breathe some life into this one ?
Q: Why would you hold PLC for now after such a nice price increase? I noticed that TD recommended PLC on June 7 as Strong Buy. Thanks in advance for your comments.

Q: Could I get your opinion on LIF? I know the dividend fluctuates, but does it seem reasonably sustainable at current levels, what is the payout percentage, the debt levels, and what will drive the stock price higher or lower and the likelihood of each. The stock seems to have traded back down a bit recently - would you consider buying at the current level for an income oriented investor?
Thank-you

RBC Life Science and Technology Fund Series F (RBF619 $89.02)
Q: I hold ZQQ for tech exposure. It has grown 33.8% over the last year. I've noticed that RBF619, a Life Science and Technology fund, has grown 39.9% over the same period even with a much higher MER - 0.94% vs 0.39%. I assume this is due to the life science component in RBF619, including high performing stocks like Lilly. Would you switch ZQQ to RBF619 or are there other alternatives that provide a better tech return than ZQQ.
Q: Well well...the stock market on both side of the border are in the red, at least for my 3 portfolios, aka income, balance and US. What gives???....thanks for any insight you can provide about this, aka RED.....tom
Q: Hi 5i
Has there been any news or updates to justify the recent positive price movement on shopify?
Would you be comfortable to average down at current price or is it more likely to give up recent gains? Do you think it is a big fund accumulating or just normal market activity.
Im hesitating because recent talking heads opinion seem to indicate whole market is primed for correction...Opinion on this?
thx

TELUS Corporation (T $20.62)
Q: What is your opinion of Rogers Comm. today. How have they performed compared to the other Cdn. telcos. Is their future any different then BCE/Telus?
Would it effect their performance if they divested of their sports teams. Are the teams a distraction? or do they add to the bottom line. My opinion is they should concentrate on the telco business.
Thanks

Q: Interested in your thoughts on this one .... Global X Russell 2000 Covered Call ETF (RYLD). What is the ROC level and any thoughts on the reason for the steady decline over the last 3 years. Also, would you consider it relatively "safe" for a retired investor ... maybe @ 5-7% of total portfolio value.
