Q: Hi Peter and Team,

Peter, I enjoyed and learned a lot from your latest Financial Post article on AI.

The last question on HBDG was in May 2025. Its AUM is now $32,500,000. Is it big enough now, and is it a good ETF to safely play the AI theme?

Thanks as always for your insight.

Q: If you believe that the AI bubble will burst this year how might you position your portfolio to profit? I imagine picking defensive names, not owning companies with direct AI exposure, and owning precious metals is a start. If the bubble burst I would assume this would trigger a broader market selloff so not sure if there is a lot of places to hide. Would you consider any Put option strategies? Are there any other sectors/companies that would actually benefit from the bubble bursting? Thanks

I would a conservative GIC or HISA for CASH remaining in an RESP account, last child about to start 2nd 4 year degree, so it will get used up in the next 4 years.

I presently use BMO investorline. Please let me know what options I have for best GIC OR HISA available , I am not against switching out to another institution i.e. wealth simple.

Q: I was watching Blake Hilgemann talk about his 'descent' portfolio which he says has a safe 6% withdrawal rate for retirement vs the standard 4%. It's made up of 15% gold, 15% LT Bonds, 10% Utilities, 10% Real Estate, 20% Large cap stocks, 20% small cap value stocks, and 10% international stocks. Wondering what your take is on this. Also not sure how one's house factors into this...is it part of the RE % (likely more than 10%).

Q: What to do with $10864 in TFSA? At 74 years I exist on a public sector DB pension.

Transitioning my TFSA to be more growth focused. 14 holdings currently, major ones being BN, TRI, TFII, TVK, KXS, TOI, EQB, LMN, DSG, PNG, DRX, REAL, S, EGLX. Also have 41 equities in much larger balanced dividend growth non-reg account but Brookfield Group is pushing 15% of total portfolio with overall 65% Canada exposure. Overall below sector targets in consumer cycle, health, RE, Industrial, Utilities as well as International exposure.

Realizing you cannot get personal but I am looking for another viewpoint on how to use the funds in TFSA this year besides adding more Brookfield or software or financials. With available funds could only add 4 units of CSU anyway.

Q: Retired investor with no new money coming in. I have a larger position in QQQ and a small position in VMO. I would like to sell QQQ and move the funds into VMO. I also hold large positions in VFV and RSP and understand there is some overlap with QQQ. Would you endorse such a move or would it be prudent to split the funds equally between the two?

Q: Any updates on this company that I should be aware of before a potential purchase?
