Q: DXU is a new ETF and would appreciate your thoughts on it. Is this a good time to purchase or would it be best to do a "wait and see"? I currently hold ZUB and am wondering if it should be switched to an ETF that is not hedged. Which bank ETF would you consider for the unhedged or would you go with a single US bank. Thanks for your advice.

Q: Since you added this company to your income portfolio, this has shot up like crazy. There has been no other news and the company was not moving anywhere for a long time. Is your membership base that big that it can drive the price of one stock that much higher in a two week period and reach all time high's. Isnt there risk that if someone enters now, they will end up losing capital. Also my question balance dropped to 23 from 24 even though I had asked a question about DBO. Why is that?

Q: Hello 5i
Would you please offer thoughts on Sylogist given we seem to be in a price decline phase - starting with an uptrend break in Sept-16?
Sure feels more than just drifting when a stock falls so hard in a single day. The charts (1&5 yr) are showing a technically broken-down stock not firmly in a downdraft. Am I being lulled to sleep with 5i positive tone and 5 year hypothical viewpoint - when I should really be taking action to protect my Capital?
Thanks
Dave

Q: Hello, I've just opened an RESP for my son and it has $2500 in it and should see $2500 added to it each year plus the gov't portion. Looking at a time frame of about 18-20 years, can you recommend an initial approach? Would a couple ETF's be best for now? or is it better to work toward the income model portfolio? or a few good dividend paying equities for the long term? Thank you.

For Cenovus, portfolio holds about 2.4%, I would like to replace with either utility, consumer discretionary or healthcare. What are your top three, dividend paying suggestions.

And what is your top financial dividend payer?
