Q: Good afternoon
In response to my question answered today Aug 13/24 regarding US small-cap ETF you suggested IJR as probably the best small cap US ETF
In the August ETF update, you “seem “to suggest that CALF might be a better option
Is my take away to purchase Calf over IJR , correct?
I realize you like both of these ETFs, but if you were to choose one only which would it be?
Thank you again

Q: I recently saw a video where drones were used in firefighting and ag research . I only know these two names and I think they are more into military applications. New drone hardware and applications is popping up weekly.
Are you able to predict which companies are likely to be the most dominant and financially successful , or will the military outlook always hold the top spot ?

Q: Peter; This not really a question . I would like to point out to all members that, once again, Peter et al, has again picked a large winner for those who followed his continuing replies to members on TVK. He couldn’t have been more clearer to buy , without breaking the OSC rule about direct advice. I’ve been a member since 2102 when I converted my wife’s and my RRSP’s to RRIF’s. Without boring you the returns have been significant . Sure there were a few losers but overall we’re both way ahead of any other comparable services- not that’s not right. There are NO other comparisons .!
Publish if you wish.
