Q: February 26th, you noted that FIE was a decent ETF for Canadian Financials. This ETF posts a trailing 12-month yield of 7.34% which it pays out monthly ($0.04) as a mix of eligible dividends and return of capital. In 2012, it paid $0.414 as eligible dividends. Based on the average NAV for 2012 of $6.50, this would be a 6.4% return. How is such a high return possible when 90% of FIE is in Canadian banks plus CBO and CPD which pay around 4-4.5%? Is this return sustainable? I have posed this question to iShare and, as yet, received no satisfactory answer. Am I missing something?

Q: HI
do you have any platinum,and or palladium stocks that you like?

Q: I am 80 and we need to booster our US Social Security to a livable income, but my wife, just 65, also needs growth to keep up with inflation. We are both Canadian/US citizens and US dividends can be hit by 20% as a result. In a rif, 2 tfsas and our joint portfolio, we have over $500G invested in about 30 Cdn stocks; 5 major banks, 4 pipelines, oil (HSE,CPG, BTE,CVE), REITS (rei,ax,cwt,d), power (aqn,bep,ema,fts) and tel (bce,t,mbt), plus some pot,tck,mg,enf,pwf, etc. I just sold a bond and now have about $140Gs to invest, so would like some advice. I'm intested in CSX in the US as I think we need to be in a railroad, but should I just add the rest of the money to our present stocks? I know this is a tough one but we need income and, at least, to keep up with inlation for my wife.

Q: As a retired investor who perceives much danger in the equity markets at present, I have a large cash position. To maximize my interest rates I have made deposits in several of the E banks (Achieva, Accelerate, Peoples choice, Canadian Direct). Some of these deposits are in excess of CDIC coverage. What is your feeling about these smaller E Banks? Any concerns?

What are your thoughts on Novagold. I've been following a few hedge funds, like Baupost and Vinik Asset Mgmt and they seem to be stocking up on it.
