Your thought on adding ARKF (Ark ETF Fintech) versus buying Zillow or Open Door.

Q: Hello 5i Team

I purchased Morguard Corporation in 2020 at $105.00. I am beginning to become disillusioned with this company. Any thoughts on whether it is worth keeping or should I sell and move on.

Two potential replacement real estate stocks would be either Tricon Residential (TCN) or Mainstreet Equity (MEQ).

What would be your thoughts on the best purchase?

How was MEQ year end results announced earlier this week?

Thank you

Q: Hi 5i;
Just a follow up to my question and your answer about IDR this morning, so that I can better analyze ETF's which I have to say I find to be a perplexing exercise.
You wrote that IDR has "fees" of 1.28%, but both CIBC and BMO indicate that its MER is .98% - approximately a 30% difference, so quite significant. Is there more to the cost of ownership than just MER which I should consider when reviewing ETFs that would account for the difference? If so, where do I look to find this information?
You also indicated that IDR 's "small size" is $61M while CIBC seems to peg it's value at $107.4M and BMO at $109.8M - again quite significantly different. Am I missing something in my understanding of the value as stated by the likes of CIBC/BMO that I should be aware of when looking at ETFs, going forward?
Thanks - I appreciate your advice.
Peter

Q: C3ai just announced a $500 million contract with the US DoD. The stock reaction has been muted. Shouldn't the stock price have reacted better with such a deal. If not why not? Thanks
