Q: PBH is down bigtime today but I am far more concerned about ENB. PBH is still very much in an uptrend as it has been since 2009. ENB on the other hand, is in a downtrend and has been for a year now. And, very, very rare for a Balanced Equity stock, has been showing up in the 52 week low column a number of times in the past while. What do you see for ENB. Are you considering any changes?

Q: PEO seems to be doing well but it also appears to be very richly valued. Do you concur and what do you consider would be the appropriate valuation metrics?

Q: When I try to trade securities listed in Exchanges in Japan, UK, other Europe, bank-owned brokers (RBC-DI and iTRADE) have a hard time giving me a quote. Even if when I get a quote, the have trouble handling my trade. And if they do, the trades incur very high commissions. I understand there are brokers in Canada who do handle international trades, but I do not know who they are.

I am therefore looking for a Japan small-cap ETF of companies that:
- are small or mid-cap (i.e. prefer to avoid the large Japan cartel type orgs); and
- whose sales have a significant export component; and
- which holding a modest number of securities, say 50 or 75 although I suspect I would have to be flexible as to number of holdings given that I am seeking small-caps
- trades in the US or Canada
I skipped currency hedge as requirements (although that would be great)

I have checked online resources but didn’t see ETFs of Japan-based exporters.
I would be thankful if you are able to tell of any ETFs you are able to find.
