Investment Q&A

Q: PLX is an Israeli Bio co. not showing in your system.
I bought a small position 6 months ago as I am very interested in the diseases they are working to try to alleviate and potentially cure. It has gone up in price nicely this week after company update to shareholders.
Would appreciate your views. Is this a hold or worth buying more at this stage. John.

Q: Good afternoon:
I have a Foundation account that I am managing
for my late mother, and was wondering if you could suggest 6 mutual funds to invest in. I am not allowed to invest in any higher risk funds. (I do like
the Mawer group of funds.)
Thanks!

Q: First a big thank you for the terrific returns we received in 2020 thanks to your stellar guidance (our largest holdings we first discovered through 5i -hello LSPD,XBC and WELL!). We gifted our kids memberships in December and praise your service to everyone. This is truly an invaluable service.
Now to the question, my brother is tired of paying high fees for his CIBC pension holdings. When I looked into this for him last year, some pools had MER in the 2% range! He’s moved the following into cash and is looking for lower fee/higher return alternatives in the following areas of his pension account:
-Imperial Canadian Dividend Income Pool
-Imperial Canadian Equity High Income Pool
-Imperial US Equity Pool
-Imperial International Equity Pool
-Imperial Short Term Bond Pool
-Imperial Long Term Bond Pool
Please charge as many questions as required.
