Q: This one year new ETF holds around 100 US small caps and tries to select the most profitable in the field thus ideally removing what many experts lament as the main issue with holding broadly the Russell 2000 namely the large number of high debt unprofitable companies therein. Would appreciate your view on the strategy, the managers, and the holdings of this ETF and of course any other comment. Thank you.

Q: I see that TVK is a front runner, if not your #1 small cap recommendation right now. I agree with the thesis but unfortunately was hungup on waiting for a pullback. Its now even more expensive vs historical valuations. Do the valuation lower it a few notches in your order of what you'd buy today versus like an ADX or HPS which have come down a bit, or do you find the valuation reasonable? Thx

Q: I recently purchased a small amount of SMCI when it dropped a few weeks ago. It seems the stock isn’t very popular right now. I’m wondering if I should hold onto it or sell it. Is it a good investment? My small investment in SMCI is starting to show some gains. I’m thinking about investing more if the long-term outlook is promising. I’d appreciate your thoughts. Thanks in advance!

Q: hi 5i,
what are you top picks for non-Canada core ETF's for long term hold/accumulation? im looking for US markets, European, Asia, and India. I like very liquid entities, and a dividend is fine. If possible, can you include both hedged/unhedged to $CDN. I notice that most of the unhedged versions of the ETF's have higher annual returns-do you recommend hedging or no hedging for the $CDN?
thanks, Chris

Q: have a question regarding 2 stocks in the housing sector. GBRK and BLBD- both have done very well but is it reasonable to think that you could start a new position in one of these if there is a drawdown this month? The idea being to start a position and build from there.
Thanks, Lesley
