Q: What's with so many stocks trading at above average volumes today? Is this related the TSX index changes for Monday or are there other factors.
Is it a quarterly balancing?
I think ETFs sort out their positions about this time of the year for equal weight ETFs for example.
I often see above average volumes at month end which I thought was funds trying to make their month end holdings look better.
Thanks for your professional opinion.

Q: As a result of comments from 5i and other factors I initiated partial positions in the above 5 companies (so thanks!). All have done well.
At this point I am looking to add to my positions and wondered if you saw any red flags in any of the 5 companies and also in which order you would rank for adding funds.

Thanks,

Terry

Q: I sent in a question a 3 days ago about using preferred shares in companies in lieu of savings mutual funds like DYN6000. Did you get the question? Also wondering if Preferred shares is a better option because of the dividend then could you give me a list of 6 to 8 in Canada and 4 in the US that you would recommend. Hope both you Peter and Ryan and your families are staying safe.

Regards,

Brendan
