Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Again another follow up on the XEC holdings.I have looked at three different financial websites. Yahoo, morningstar and TMX.
I cannot see anywhere that XEC holds IEMG as the US listed ETF.
Isn't this quite concerning as a DIY investor if one is trying to select ETF for account tax advantages? Why would we have to go to the prospectus to find out this information? Do you know of another site which might have this information?
Thanks
Jeff

Q: If a recession is upon us, would it be better to lighten up on bank stocks at this time. I'm at about 30% in total weight when I combine all my accounts due to the stock splits and DRIPS. Thinking about selling some and buying some Emera and BAM.A and adding to BEP.UN, AQN and TRP. Would a gold stock like AEM or FNV be suitable at this time ? Your opinion is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Q: 5 eyes - why is the bid 10% less than the ask on this US insurer? If I want to sell shares (I don't actually) then do I take a 10% haircut? David Fingold's fav insurer - which would you buy between PGR and Chubb and secondly would you recommend a buy at this time of a US insurer generally? Delighted as always - Ken

Q: You’ve mentioned that some of the more stable sectors during a recession can be utilities, telecom, and consumer staples. How might REITs like CAR and CSH do?

Thanks.
