Q: HI 5iResearch team,
Can you please advise re: US utilities? I believe Stephen Jarislowsky's view that the US $ will increase relative to Can $ in near term, so have converted some US$ to Cdn$ recently with plan to repurchase at better exchange. He recommended US utilities for a longer term hold. Do you concur and if so, what would you buy?
Thank you, Linda
Q: In following your recent responses you seem quite comfortable with AVO and its momentum combined with its risk/return factor. Using that as your base measurement could you list 3 more that you would feel have the same or more momentum and you feel the same level of return/risk confidence. These would fit into my Tfsa
Great Q & A section. Goes very well with my morning coffee

Q: Following up on a question from Greg Jan 24/18 do you have any information regarding how both ETF's compare. I understand that BLCN has many more stocks while BLOK is concentrated on fewer stocks.Fees tend to be the same or almost the same. I realize both funds are very new ,just launched last week and would be speculative but any investment would be a very minor part of my portfolio. Thanks for any guidance. Too early to invest?Paul
Q: 2 Canadian stocks that I have been following and they are doing quite well are NNO and PAT ($1.78). How do you like them? Also, a U.S. stock I have has been on a down trend for some time. It is called ALB. In the Lithium market. It was mentioned by you some time ago. Is it a keeper? Thank you. Dennis
Q: Please provide a little in-depth opinion on Equifax as it works to regain its position as the leading credit rating agency for NA. You can use two credits. Thank you
Q: Please give me your updated view of zoetis. Do you like the sector? Do you consider this a buy, and if so, would this be a compelling buy?
Thx
Karim
Q: Thanks for the quick answer, further, then to trimming. If you suggest a 20% total in the sector, would you suggest 5% in each holding, or some 6 and some 3? Thanks for the detail!
Q: I am following the BE portfolio. In tech, I already own Constellation and Kinaxis. If I want to add to technology, which of AVO, CLS or SYZ should I choose at the moment? Any particular stock with good momentum? Thanks!
Q: Having followed this company for some time a 5% drop in a day is absolutely not the norm even on a bad day, which this is not. It follows a 2.5% drop yesterday. Something is going on here other than normal trading. Are sell volumes very high and in high blocks indicating some major holder is dumping shares?
Q: Greetings
What’s your view of companies that offer to repurchase shares via a ‘normal course issuer bid’ and simultaneously issue a similar amount of stock to officers and directors through stock options? The two activities run more or less concurrently but of course are issued under separate notifications.
Thank you
Q: GoldMoney has traded down now to its 200 day moving average. I'm guessing due to drop in hype over crypto-currencies. What do you think of the company at this valuation? It looks like they report in February, any clues as to how they are executing recently?
