Q: I asked about these 3 ETF's in May of 2025. As I noted, I purchased these with a view to moving away from equities. I am retired and interested in dividend income. Has much changed since your answer in May 25 ? Would you continue to hold through 2026 and just take the healthy dividends ? Or is more capital depreciation likely in 2026? If you could only keep 2, which would they be?

Q: Given the sector's relative under performance, I believe the timing is right to increase my portfolio weighting in the Healthcare Sector. I own MRK and PFE. As I started to research individual companies it became apparent my lack of expertise in the area and the pace of technological advance makes stock picking in this area challenging. As such I'm considering an ETF and am currently looking at RSPH. Do you agree with the timing and would you advise an ETF or another individual company? If the former, what do you think of RSPH and if the latter' what would recommend for global exposure to the sector

Thank-you

Any input appreciated,

With electrification of Industry etc. and the build out of data centres, would you consider this to be an okay time to invest in Copper given the recent run-up? Or wait for consolidation?

Q: Relating to ongoing AI buildout. I have exposure to the power generation side through Brookfield Renewable (BEP.UN), Duke Energy (DUK), and Constellation Energy (CEG), maybe some overlap here.

Given that I am effectively covered on green power, regulated utilities, and nuclear baseload, what are the best complementary high-yield blue chips in Data Center REITs, midstream energy, or industrial supply chain that would diversify my AI exposure without duplicating my existing utility holdings?" I was thinking
Realty Income for physical space. It has high yield however may not play in that space, but what about DLR for eg to compliment (lower yield however)

Q: On Jan 19, in a question by David, you stated that both DSG and OTEX did not have a dividend. Globe & Mail has that OTEX does have a dividend. Please advise if you need to correct your response. G&M advised "OpenText Corp. OTEX-T has named former IBM executive Ayman Antoun as chief executive, effective April 20. 2026" Is this a good move by OTEX? Does it change your impression of potential of OTEX?

Q: What is going on with AstraZeneca this morning? On Friday it closed at 92.77, and the quote this morning on my BMO Investorline site as well as the TMX Money page and your own quote is 187.10. I don't see any news, in fact if I try to open the TMX page for AZN, it says "page does not exist".
