Q: I currently hold DHX in an RrESP account which I will be winding down over the next 4 years. The stock has come back nicely over the last little while and wonder if this momentum will continue or weather I should take this opportunity to exit. This stock was originally purchased for capital appreciation given the low dividend.
Thank you.
Maggie

Q: Do you have any insights into Smart Sand versus Fairmont Santrol.
The price has dropped significantly and usage of sand within the industry is falling at this point in time. Is Smart Sand highly leveraged or do they have a good balance sheet and will survive ...... maybe it's time to add to my position.
Thanks DAN

Q: Re: Infosys (INFY)

Hello, This question is out of your scope but I would appreciate your thoughts. This stock is down about~ 10% due to the resignation of CEO. This is a solid company and has revolutionised IT and has made a huge impact on India. I am wondering if this is a good time to start a small position. Can you look at the financias and give me your thoughts. Thanks. Regards, Shyam

Q: Good morning...I have a balanced portfolio and have additional cash to deploy...I basically own more or less 5i covered stocks...currently out of ENB, ATD.B, New Flyer, SHOP, CSU..would you add to? Also OTEX which I am holding but currently down (18%) would you add at this point..

Another question...if you had additional funds what would you be adding to on your covered stocks...no worry of allocation...top 10 in order..

Thanks

Q: Hello, I am thinking of lightening up on SHOp where I am almost at 9% and buying AAPl as a replacement where I already have a half position. I would appreciate your thoughts on this. I am not quite sure why Apple is raising money in the form of bonds..while it has a lot of cash.
But the next version of iphones are much anticipated..I get this insight from my teenage children.cheers Shyam

Q: Hi Peter and group: I am interested in the above noted ETF for an approximate 3% holding in my RRSP. I think you touched on this ETF recently, but am wondering if you could shed further light as regards volatility, expense ratio, (seems very high at 2.2%) and overall risk. My risk tolerance is moderate and the hold would be for several years. I also currently hold ZWH, ( 6 %) in my RRSP for U.S. exposure .

Thanks for the great service

David

Q: Hi Team,
Following a question about Canadian and US health care sector opportunities, I am trying compare and contrast IBB (iShares Nasdaq Biotechnology ETF) with XBI (SPDR S&P Biotech ETF). I realize the former focuses on large companies and has more concentrated positions in top holdings while the latter focuses on small companies with a more even distribution of holdings. What are your thoughts about a risk/return trade off between the two ETFs and what timeframe would you be considering to hold either one for an investment thesis to pan out? If you had to pick one, which would it be and why?
Many thanks, Michael
