Q: Your opinion on using FSB ETF to park cash. Looks to have better returns than any high interest savings or GIC with minimal risk.

Any better ideas for returns from cash are appreciated.

Q: In the last few months, gold has not been doing poorly, falling back from its recent highs. I would appreciate your thoughts as to why it is not doing well, and whether you think this is just a period of consolidation, before a large upturn. I would have thought that in today's market (with forecast inflation, market and political turbulence, large government deficits) it would have supported a large increase in gold price. However, this is clearly not happening at the current time.

Your thoughts on this market dynamic would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks again for this wonderful service, and your valued advice.

Q: Would you average down and buy more AMT here? I know it is expensive on a valuation basis but is there any other fundamental issues that causes you concern? Do you think Keysight Tech would be a better way to play 5G? Thanks

Q: Hi 5i.
Coal Island Ltd., a (former)shareholder in Hudson Resources Ltd. recently disclosed pursuant to the requirement for an "Early Warning Report" that it has 'disposed' of 18,466,827 common shares in HUD for 'gross aggregate proceeds of $2,874,526.00' through the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange.
Does this mean that HUD bought back these shares, thus having the same effect as any normal share buy back, resulting in there being less money in the company but fewer shares outstanding and thus more value for each issued share, and would that be where the money for the transaction came from? Or would there be third party hidden in here somewhere?
Coal Island says it paid $0.15562 per share, and although the market price of this volatile stock has decreased some since the Coal Island disposition, the share price is still over .20 per share.
Thanks for helping me understand what went on here.

Q: The markets have been very nasty to some favorites in the past week or so. Can you recommend one or two companies or funds that you think have really been hit unrealistically hard? Your opinion would be much appreciated. Thanks.
