Q: Hi, I - along with many other Canadians I'm sure, have been watching the USD climb. It looks to be heading back up to test the recent all time highs, and I am wondering if you could shed light on how the value of the USD will affect the market. As well as if there is a tipping point, at which the value also starts to hurt the US economy, etc. My limited understanding is that if the USD climbs, stocks go down. Your thoughts on this would be appreciated! Thanks!

Q: This ETF seems to have a long/short strategy of low volatility. 2 questions please:
1. including dividends are they keeping up with the the TSX index total return since inception?
2. is there a guaranteed market maker to keep the shares of PFMN.TO in line with its NAV or is it possible a premium or discount could happen in the future?
thanks

Q: Hi 5i,
I recently sold Fresh DelMonte Produce/FDP after a nice run up. Apart from Nutrien/NTR I have no other agricultural related stock or ETF.
Could you recommend one or two options (either stock, ETF or both) as a good replacement?
Have to say, bit of a confusing world at the moment?
Much appreciated.
Ralph

Q: Good day,
For exposure to gold, I'm looking at getting into an ETF or two. Would you suggest both a gold bullion ETF and a gold producers ETF or would they move in tandem and only one is needed?
Can you recommend some gold ETFs?
Thanks,
Robert

Q: In the event that the USD reverses course and starts to become even moderately devalued (e.g. BRICS decides to actually develop an alternative trading currency system that by-passes the USD), how should Canadian investors strategize and position themselves within the various asset classes?

two part question. First, If you were to choose between CM ot TD . Which one would you prefer? Is there a better bank you prefer? TD has a higher yield and has exposure to US markets

Q: Hi - what would be your general stance on REITS in Canada right now. They have taken a decent hit today on the tariff news. Are they oversold? Bottom line, and I know it's a broad question that is hard to answer specifically but would you buy, hold, sell Cdn REIT sector?
Q: Of these two which would have the safer dividend and some growth for a retired senior longer term ?

Q: I wondered what Trump would do to support the market, and now we have it.
A sovereign wealth fund!
A ludicrous idea for the U.S. which is not only a currency issuing government, it is also the reserve currency.
However, a deep pocketed buyer of U.S stocks will inevitably push p/e's higher.
While the insanity grows, we might as well make some money.
Hopefully Ryan speaks to the potential impact of this for investors in his webinar tomorrow.

Q: You say the Canadian market is up 5% since trump started talking about tariffs, how much is the US market up since then?
Q: I saw Eric Nuttall’s article on the case for building more pipelines to broaden our customer base for Canadian energy. I like the idea and think the public could (finally) get behind this. What companies would benefit from this type of project in the short term? Long term?
Q: I read one of the questions pertaining to GoEasy which talked about them being resilient during the 2008 financial crisis. In 2008, were companies such as GoEasy really impacted here in Canada ,as the banking regulations are different in Canada and the crisis was much more prevalent in the US. But this time around, if the tariff's kick in and a recession hits Canada, do you believe that GoEasy will still be able to weather the storm in a similar fashion, as I feel that there has been a very huge selloff of GoEasy in recent months. Do you think it may be overdone?
Q: If we put aside the normal indicators for Gold and consider the geopolitical climate that is surfacing day to day around the world, along with the US potentially having some instability within their own borders and the instability with their allies, is it a good time to buy gold as an investment? What do your a believe are the pluses and minuses for Gold increasing in value over the course of the next 12 months?
Q: Before any news about Deep Seek , analyst were saying that NVDA was still in a buy position looking long term. What do we think today ? Is this a temporary pull back ? Thanks for your thoughts.
