Q: Further to your earlier answer on commodity prices dropping because of a rising US dollar...

Doesn't a rising US dollar actually HELP Canadian producers as they receive more for their products? And would that rise not be counteracted in any case by an anticipated further rise in Canadian rates - which would likely raise the CAN$? Is Mr. Market just reacting in a knee-jerk fashion here?

Q: I have some money in my RRSP and would like to buy some US stocks. Could you recommend your top picks you think are priced to buy now, which gives 3% or more dividend. Also any you would wait on, and what price point you would enter. Thanks so much!

Q: Dear 5i team.

I'm trying to understand the impact of the recent fight between Disney and the State of Florida. What would you estimate the impact to be if Florida strips Disney of their special status to govern themselves. To be honest, I'm not sure if this will have any impact as it may be a zero sum game if the surrounding municipalities collect a tax to provide the services Disney does and pays for itself now? Is that too simplistic?

Appreciate your opinions.

Q: Goeasy is a great buying opportunity under $120 ($119.30 as I write) with a 3% dividend, 7/8 years of dividend increases plus great management, great growth, etc. I'm thinking people are afraid of inflation (I'm 70 so been there) or repositioning funds. Even with a full weight 5% posn I am tempted to add. Your thoughts on going over weight.

Q: Morning 5i,
I know there have been many recent questions on GSY but I'll still ask:
To me GSY is acting very volatile and I wonder if you agree that it's behaving more like a stock that's being traded than a name that's attracting investors? If I'm right in that, do you have any thoughts as to why, and by rights shouldn't a relatively large financial services company be much more stable than GSY is at present. Its current yo-yo behaviour doesn't instill much confidence, in me at least.
Thanks, and I look forward to your thoughts.
Peter

Q: Hi Peter, I have 300 shares of CM in a margin account and 20 in my TFSA since they are splitting I thought it would be a good idea to transfer some (what I can contribute) into my TFSA, 1. Your thought on that and 2. Is there a way to do this rather than selling them in one and buying them back in the other and when is it better, before or after the split. Please take as many credits for this question as needed. Thanks for your valued opinion. Nick

Q: Can you comment on Amazon taking another run at SHOP. This one seems more established than the last attempt to replicate. Also throwing it in free for Prime users could be appealing to new business owners. How concerning is this?
