Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi Peter and Ryan, I have held Lloyds and Santander for a long time still down 35%. Should I sell both due to the uncertainty of Briex and buy some more BAC, C, TD, BNS That are also held in equal amounts. US Banks are ADR's.
Do you know when Lloyds will receive the next Dividend and how much it will be ?
Thank you, to you and all your staff for excellent advice, I have all the stocks in your Balanced and Growth Portfolio's and the best performance I've ever had. --- Ian

Q: Peter & Co., I am planning to add to my small positions in one or two of these American banks. I have compared P/E, P/B, ROE and payout ratios and I am in a quandary. Would you please list them in order of your priority for possible purchases.
With great appreciation for your excellent service.

Q: Two part question:
1. Do the large US banks have more room to run or is the expected rate increase pretty much baked in?
2. To buy BAC and C I have to move $Cdn cash to my US$ accnt. Currency conversion can impact outcome. At 75c the $Cdn is up a bit. Should I buy now before the likely US interest rate increase? Or(2A) wait for a possible softening in the market around year end/ new year? Thanks for answering - but more importantly for your integrity, which was on display recently in your answer to the Forge First question.

Q: Hi Team, A number of analysts seem to think that the U.S. financial sector(deregulation) and infrastructure(putting people back to work) are sectors to consider when investing in the U.S. Do you agree with this and if so what would be your top 2/3 stock picks in each sector? If not, what sectors and stock picks would the team suggest.
