Q: Thoughts on the CN banks? Low rate environment; Cdn economy hampered economically due to low oil and lacklustre mtg/productivity . How does this factor for growth in our banking oligopoly? I would think the 4-5% dividend yield is relatively safe but I cannot see where the stock price growth would come from other than wealth management divisions and perhaps trading which is somewhat risky. Thanks.

Q: Assuming we get a rate cut of 0.5% by Poloz tomorrow, or, over the next few months, how bad will that impact CIBC's NIM and can we estimate the hit on their earnings? Is one bank more exposed to NIM than others? Regional banks are not reacting well right now. Thank you.

Q: Good morning- two questions. Last year, with your guidance, I invested in Gild and it, like many other non-growth stocks in the US, has languished. I noted a comment you made recently that GILD would have to wait and hope for another day in the sun. Is it time to sell GILD and move into a different health care in the US, and where do you suggest I go?
Second, after reading a dogs of the banks analysis, I thought that CM shares would likely have a robust end to 2020. So far I’m down 5%. Your thoughts on CM these days as far as the coming year is concerned. I’m a very patient investor with a twenty year horizon and bank dividends do look solid. Thankks
