Q: I've asked this before. Given the current situation, particularly concerning Canada's negotiations with the US on trade, what is your opinion regarding the Canadian dollar? I've invested fairly heavily over the past year in US equities and bond funds with the assumption that the Canadian dollar is headed down. I understand that calls on forex are difficult, particularly due to political considerations, but I am interested in your perspective.

Q: In my last question you indicated that mittleman has 0.05% of the shares. They actually own 16-17% ie 27M shares and just joined the board as an activist, changed the CEO etc. This play is very reminiscent of Buffett’s Blue Chip Stamps. So I’ll ask again, what’s with the buying and selling of shares. They have made some big buys in the past month, but they appear to be selling some, or is this just administrative adjustment of shares in their fund?

Q: Hi, Sylogist stock is trading near its all time high, after Cormark's coverage. I am aware that a few months ago 5i sold the stock in Balanced Portfolio. However, we kept our core holding and are quite happy with it. We started a family memeber's portfolio (LIRA) recently with some cash and have invetsed in PBH, TSGI, KXS,SIS,SJ and TCL.a. Still waiting for an opportunity for CSU and BYD.un. What do you think of SYZ at current prices to be added ? Thanks
Q: What can you tell me about Revive Therapeutics. I know it's risky and you likely won't recommend it, but any information would be helpful. The stock has jumped on news of receiving orphan drug status for one of their programs. Is this overly significant? I know it creates excitement, but ultimately how does it add to the actual value of the stock?
Q: To add to Julien’s post from today on bonds. I am in a very similar situation, younger (early 30s) with no bond exposure, all equities in the portfolio. I’d like to start adding some bond exposure through ETFs and did appreciate your suggestions on specific names. My question is, what etf would you say is a ‘one stop shop’ for bond exposure, as I like to keep it to one or two names at most. I’ve seen ZAG or VAB mentioned before. I’d like to keep it in CAD as I don’t want to add exchange risk. The purpose for the bond exposure would be to add uncorrelated assets and reduce volatility. Thank you as always

Q: Today's drop in Cineplex suggests that the market was underwhelmed by the increased business with Cinemark in the US reported yesterday. Have you any idea why this would be so? It seems to me to add to their attempt at further diversification in the entertainment business.
