Q: Hi,
I'm rebalancing my portfolio and I am underweight in US equities. Based on current market conditions and high valuations in the US markets I am reluctant to purchase US equities. My thought is to purchase an ETF like XHU that pays a decent dividend. In the case of a market correction I would have the dividend. Your thoughts on this strategy.

Q: What will it take to move the needle? Recent quarter was decent. What do you think about the prospects for the other companies being created (BlockVault, Goldmoney China) internally? What metrics would they need to achieve to get a recommendation from your team? What do you think it will take to get investors excited? It seems a brand built on integrity and trust should be something investors would want to be long, no?

Q: What are your thoughts on the IPO of IPL Plastics. I think its international exposure and the 28% ownership of the Caisse de Depot makes it very interesting. Would starting a small position be wise at this time. Thanks

Q: I have no energy exposure in my portfolio since 2014. I sold all of WCP, RRX, VET, SGY late 2014 and never went back. I am thinking about gradually stepping back into energy but not in a hurry or big way. I am a growth investor and have no issue with risks. Should I buy CNQ, SU etc big names or stay with smaller ones like WCP, VET etc. or just use an ETF like XEG? Thanks.

Q: Hi, Trevali is very close to it’s 52 week low. I’m wondering if there is something wrong with the stock? Has it just fallen out of favour or is there good reason for the downturn? If you are still recommending it I am thinking of taking a full position. If not, can you recommend another mining stock with good growth prospects. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
