Q: Perhaps a long-shot question, but I wonder if you are aware of any company providing amazing services similar to 5i, but focused on the European (in particular, French, German and UK) equity markets?

Many thanks in advance! Aaron

Q: I am looking for a few suggestions for high quality corporate bonds that will mature in around 5 years. I tried using TD's fixed income tool to do research, but it seems like the selection of bonds on offer is artificially limited. Can you suggest a few bonds or direct me to a website that would allow me to better research them myself?

Q: Hi 5i
I saw your comment on the MFC/Global Atlantic deal. MFC has hit $28 and I had decided to re-evaluate it at this price. It seems to trade between 24-28 so I'm tempted to take the profit. But if they are buying back shares (I think I read 2.8% of float starting next year), and the market seems to like this deal, can you see it crossing $30? Also have SLF and POW (with re-evaluate price at $40)
Thanks, Greg

Q: Hello
I have equal amounts in CLO and CLF. Wondering if it might be a good idea to swap one of these for the longer term XLB Bond Fund to hopefully play the downturn in interest rates? If so which would you swap and why? Is there a safer trade with equal potential with less risk then XLB?
Thanks
Jeff

Q: Hi Team
I have heard the term, window dressing, where the fund will sell their "dogs" and buy stocks that have gone up at year end so it looks like they have done well. My question is, if the sell at a loss, does that not show up in the year end results showing that they had a bad year?

Thanks
