Q: Hello: I thought I heard David Driscoll on BNN the other day saying that when holding "cash" for clients in Canadian accounts he buys Bankers acceptance notes. Could you please help me understand what these are and how they compare to other fixed income products such as GICs. Thanks very much

Q: As a small investor I am getting tired of companies issuing more shares to line their pockets ,a lot of times it is for a good purpose but lately it seems they are just cashing in and hurting investors .In the past I would vote on these matters but don't any more when I realized how futile it was.The big pension funds should be holding these boards accountable as they have most of the shares ,are they all scrubbing each others back? When you look at the compensation these ceo's and boards make the greed is getting ridiculous .I think they are making enough without having to raid my bank account. Sorry for the rant but something has to change.

Q: Why is KL taking a hit right now? Would you buy, sell or hold? Along the same lines, silver is plummeting too. Even though momentum is very negative, would you be accumulating silver names such as PSLV or SIL (an ETF) for any future rally, or do you think the sector might have trouble recovering? Thanks for your insight.
