Q: In the past, you have expressed a bias towards not hedging US ETFs purchased with Canadian dollars. Is this still your view given the significant spread between the US dollar and the Canadian dollar? At what point in time, as we go forward, should one seriously consider hedging US ETFs?

Q: Hi Peter & Team:
I heard that ETFs & Mutual funds that hold foreign companies are not required to report on T1135. If this is true, would it be good to invest in foreign companies but avoid reporting the T1135? Thank you.

Q: Was reading the TD report on PKI today. They were saying it was going nowhere till oil moves up but speculated on its ability to pick up assets on the cheap and that being some sort of outlier catalyst. I am happy PKI for oilpatch exposure but what does it's balance sheet look like to you for it being able to pick up cheap assets in the meanwhile?

Q: Could you comment on the latest results and their acquisition. The market seems disappointed as the stock sold down over 8% today. As a long time unit holder would you add to a position at the current price, the distribution seems very appealing. Thank You Ron
Q: Can you please comment on the acquisition of True North Apartment REIT and some properties from Starlight Investments? Is this a good deal for NPR.UN shareholders?
Q: In their recent news release they have this paragraph:
The acquisition and subsequent integration of a Schedule I bank and Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation (CDIC) member into Home Trust helps the Company further develop its deposit diversification initiatives much sooner than would have been expected if the Company continued to pursue its previously announced plans to apply for a separate Schedule I bank license, as described in a November 10, 2014 Home Capital press release.
Does this mean they will no longer seek to apply for Schedule 1 Bank status?
Many thanks
Mike

Q: Hello Peter,
I know that past returns are not always indicative of future returns, but looking at the returns and dividend increases of the past 15 years of the Canadian Banks and Enbridge, I am assuming that I may not get the same returns but am expecting atleast 7 percent return on the capital if I take a 10 year view. This is on the basis of the past and looking at the viability of the companies and their dividend payouts (Banks and Enbridge). As an example, If I invest 100k across the banks and Enbridge, my dividend would average about 3500K per year (approximate). 10 years from now, I am assuming the stock portfolio would go to 200k and result in a dividend of 7000k per year (3.5 percent of 200k or 7% of the original investment). Does this strategy makes sense and also should my total weight of the banks and Enbridge not exceed 20% ( assuming I am a medium risk investor). I am basically looking to invest a portion of my RRSPs into the banks and Enbridge and leave it for the long haul. If you feel i can increase my weight and add other sectors to the mix that can give me similar results, please advise. Any comments please

Q: My unrealized gain in NFI has climbed from 9% at the end of 2014 to 44% yesterday. I'm not complaining, mind you, but I'd like to know the reason, and is it sustainable? NFI is now 6% of my portfolio of 24 holdings. Time to trim? Thanks - Ted.
Q: Good Morning,
I hold many of the stocks in the 5i Model Equity Portfolio. I would like to diversify my holdings beyond Canada so was thinking of starting a position in MAW150. It has performed well over the past couple of years. What do you think of this fund going forward? Are there others of this genre that you would recommend instead?
Thanks for all your help.

Q: Hi Peter, now that HLF has dropped so much, is it a better entry point than CLR? It has a a higher dividend. Also, off late a lot of BNN Guests are suggesting that Dividends * Buy Backs are a Bad thing, and that they should be reinvesting those funds for Growth. Your thoughts?
thanks, Austin
