Q: I have a question regarding CEFL.US, which is a 2X leveraged fund of funds product created by UBS. If I buy this in a taxable account, is it your belief that a 35% foreign withholding tax would have to be paid? I think that withholding tax would have to be paid on it's cousin BDCL.US because it has MLPs as its consituents, but I'm not sure about the former. I know you guys aren't accountants but I thought maybe you would know. thx

Q: I have some cash in my U.S. account that I want to put to work towards a high yielding stock that trades in the states. Was going to buy ORAN ADR on NYSE, however, judging from response to a previous members question on it, I would be better off investing in another company. I am looking at BLX on the NYSE. Do you have any suggestion for company with gooder outlook and possibly a higher yield?

Are they too good to be true and should I perhaps look elsewhere.Thanks, Joe

Q: Hi there, I was wondering if a product like "TD Inv Sav Acct TDB8150" would be considered a "deposit" in the event of a bank bail in? Is it covered under the $100,000 bank deposit insurance provision? If it would be taken in a bail in, where else can one hide cash?
Thanks
