Q: Is Larry Fink betting a major part of BLK’s future on block chain and more specifically ethereum. BMNR has been mentioned as a potential acquisition to get the amount of ethereum that BLK would need to achieve a strong position in that market.

Does your research suggest that all this is likely and/or in action. AND would you consider this to be a good time to buy BLK shares ? Thanks

Q: The USA banks have reported excelling results this week.

Do you expect the same from the Canadian banks?

And given that I am adding to my financial holdings is the risk reward better with US banks or Canadian banks?

Finally where would you place BLK and BLX in terms of potential upside in the next few years?

Q: Good morning 5i,

Thank you for being that "rock." I own BN and KKR. Following earnings and some downward pressure would you consider adding at this time? What would be your top 2 in this sector?

Please provide your comfortable weighting for both and preferred at this time. A good value for adding would be fabulous.

I am a little underweight in this area.
Thank you so much and please deduct accordingly.
