Q: I'm 47 and have a balanced portfolio. My 30 days has passed on CRH Medical capital loss - so I could buy it back. I currently hold SIS and GUD in healthcare - while holding CSH as real estate/healthcare. Healthcare represents 8% of my portfolio while real estate represents 3% with REITS such as CAR.UN CSH.UN HR.UN and small REI.UN. Should I relook at CRH or add another like SIA? COV is a little small for me, but looks interesting. I can wait until after October 25th to see how CRH reports.

Q: I would like your opinion on these 2 companies $bip and $bep as buys right now. Which one would you choose? Or would you be tempted to buy both? I also hold a small position In $BAM.A.
If I were to buy all 3 it would represent 6% of my total Portfolio.


Thanks as always,

Valter

Q: How do you recommend investors handle cash balances while they are waiting for a compelling investment opportunity? Presently, I use a combination of bank "high interest" e-savings accounts (.75% at RBC; 1% at Tangerine) and the "Cash optimizer" within Scotia i-trade accounts (.25%). How can I do better?

Q: I think I noticed earlier in one of your answers to a question you stated you did not think a Canadian could buy a us based mutual fund.I am looking at buying "IAT" which is a etf based in the US.What is the difference between buying mutual funds in the US and etf's based in the US?

Q: Currently sitting on a 15% loss on ENGH. I only have a 3% position in MX and SJ. Sectors are not an issue. Would you recommend moving on now from ENGH and topping up both the others?

Q: Hi Team ,
I am thinking about taking half-positions in AGT and DHX.B two companies that I have been following for a while.
AGT and DHX.B seems both interesting considering their long term potential in their respective market especially following their respective recent steep price drops that make them more attractive. I would like to have your opinion on these Companies.

I also want to add ET in my RRSP. Evertz is a bit intriguing, It seems to me that the market valuation is on the low side (Am I right?). The company seems to offer a good potential but the share price seems to be going nowhere since a while, any idea why.

What is your opinion on taking a position in ET at the current price level?

Thank you!

Q: What do you think of GREK as an investment (and why it’s been falling lately)? The only professional endorsement I’m aware of is James Thorne’s on BNN back in May. I’m wondering if it’s a good time to get in.

Generally speaking, do you frown on country-specific ETFs, or would you make some exceptions (like India or Russia), especially for long term holds? Thanks.
