Q: BMO has new issues ie. Bank of Montreal U.S. Equity (CAD Hedged) Callable Income Principal At Risk Notes, Series 789 (CAD). Is there a simple description of these auto callable shares. Are they risk protected? How? It seems that these may be “ timely” given the market meltdown and not necessarily very investable. I found these while researching fixed income.

Q: Will 5i be preparing a report on this company in the near future? It's had a great run the past several years and has been increasing its dividend regularly. I'm considering adding after the pull back. Seems to be decent growth ahead of it but how fast can it pay off its debt (seems pretty high). What grade would it most likely receive and why? Thanks.

Q: I am new to trading and managing my own portfolio. I have been investing for a few years now , but had everything managed by a broker. I decided i wanted to manage my own portfolio due to management fees and what i felt were average returns at best over the past few years. Is there a trading platform or two that you could recommend ? I read the reviews on Questrade and BMO Investor Line and both had really poor reviews .
