Q: Currently own UXM for exposure to US plus a nice 3.5% dividend. Currently hold in a non-reg acct and in January I will be selling and switching it in to an RSP for tax reasons. If I rebuy UXM in the RSP do I have to adhere to the 30 day waiting period? Is there a similar or better CDN $ ETF you can recommend that will give me exposure to the US with a similar yield.

Q: Peter, Lana & Team,

I am rounding out a 15% financial sector weighting. My existing holdings are approximately 2% for each of: Sun Life, Home Capital, TD, Scotia, Fiera and JP Morgan (12% total thus far). I have 3% left that I want to throw behind some small cap names, and have shortlisted the following 5i favourites: Firstservice corp, Tri-con, Element Financial, Rifco and CI Financial.

Questions:
1. Would you throw 1% behind 3 names, or 1.5% behind 2 names?
2. I know you like all these companies, but which 2/3 would you buy today?

Investor Profile = Young and risk on. Will be deploying new capital routinely, so ideally names that I can average up with over the next few years.

THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING.

Q: For long term S&P 500 exposure would you go with a leveraged ETF like HSU or the un-leveraged XSP? Are there additional risks with the leveraged HSU besides the greater downside potential in a market crash?
