Q: Why the sudden sharp drop in GIB.A ? Tariff issues? Long term holder here with large position. Is it time to sell half and use proceeds to buy another large Canadian tech company such as CSU.

Q: Good morning. I'm intrigued by Wealthsimple's offer of bonuses for transferring RRSP etc. What's the catch? Seems the bonuses would accrue over a couple of years but, other than that, is this legit? What do you think about this bid for adding "sticky" accounts? thanks as always

Q: Hi there. Can you comment what the impact of GOOG, MFST and AMZN and their creation of their own Quantum chips is on companies like RGTI and IONQ? Are RGTI and IONQ trying to do the same things as the bigger companies but from a weaker position or are they complimentary or poised to benefit from innovations of these larger companies? Obviously RGTI trying to beat GOOG at R&D if they are racing the same race seems like a long shot.

Q: Hello 5 I,

Just wondering the best avenue to invest it Bitcoin or Etherium directly. I dont want to do the whole wallet route and want to hold in my brokerage account. With that said is there a product that directly moves with the ETH and Bitcoin? Are either of them buys in your eyes? Thanks

Q: I am really surprised with your answer to Steven on March 3 about Berkshire, especially "In other words, we wouldn't necessarily want to give BRK a weighting that is materially higher than the typical stock in a portfolio." Shouldn't BRK be treated similarly to an ETF with 40+ quality holding plus private equity? You recommend S&P500 ETF as an alternative... well, there are a lot of investors who want their portfolio to be properly balanced and don't want to hold 33% in technology stocks. BRK-B is much better balanced and stable than S&P500. It also delivered better returns over the past year and 5 years despite the technology boom. Some of us still remember dot com bust of 2001...

Q: Good day
At what price point would you say Alphabet, Oracle and PHYS.CA are screaming buys. If it is easier you can use the price of gold in US instead of PHYS. Your opinion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Q: Is it concerning that NVDA had really good results (but not good enough) and the market is selling off? When all the good news is baked into prices and there's nothing stock earnings can do to impress the markets, is it time to get defensive? Is it more tariff and recession related? The 10 yr is down to 4.3% so you would think it's good for equities that rates are coming down, but if the reason for the decline is because we are expecting a recession, it's not good. I'm not really panicking but portfolio is mainly growth oriented and there are signs that the market is rolling over due to excessive valuation and a whole lot of other worries. Any advice on how we should be positioning or getting more defensive? Thanks!
