Q: I have a few questions regarding these 3 companies, which I hold as part of my real estate exposure. I am down on all 3:
(1) How much overlap is there between REAL:CA and EXPI:US in terms of their various US businesses? I intend to hold REAL for the eventual recovery, cannot use the loss anyway as it is held in an RRSP.
(2) I am considering selling EXPI:US and adding to my TCN:US to consolidate the positions. I can use the loss on EXPI.US. What do you think of this move?
(3) To sum up, hold Real, sell EXPI, add to TCN. Would you do it differently?
(4) In general, due to the shift in outlook for interest rate increases over the past month, do you think the real estate recovery has been accelerated?

Please take as many credits as you like. Thank you.

Q: Your answers to questions about Jacob Solutions have consistently been very positive but the stock seems to be fairly flat in recent times, it has not participated in the positive run than a lot of the markets have enjoyed in the last few months, the promise of benefiting from the suggested infrastructure spending program (did this ever happen?) has not materialized, and the share price is down about 15% from where it was at 12 months ago.

Can you give us a detailed review of its financial metrics and can you tell us why you continue to like this company? Thanks for your excellent service.

Q: I don't mind this ETF's strategy, and am attracted to the underlying ETF's dividend tax-credit eligibility, but the issuer reports AUM of less than $5M, which suggests poor liquidity, if not trading-by-appointment. Is there any reasonable argument for overlooking this weakness - for example, that domestic large-caps just aren't likely to appreciate by much over, say, the next twelve months?
