Could you give a little update with regards to SVC. I have owned this one a few times in the past and am considering it again but cautious about its growth.

Q: Hello Peter and Team,
I am struggling a little finding an equity growth or dividend ETF to hold in a RRSP account. One to cover US equities and one to cover CDN financials. I am looking at something like VIG,VYM or VTI but is listed on the TSE. Was looking at VCE to cover the CDN financials. Any comments or alternate suggestions in these categories would be appreciated.
Thanks again,
Paul

Q: What does Magna's 'Automatic Share Purchase Plan' mean to the ordinary investor?

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/globe-investor/news-sources/?date=+20130628&archive=cnw&slug=C4361#dashboard/follows/

It seems like they are trying to mitigate any downside risk by creating a support level for their share price (ie. buy it back if they value gets too cheap), is that the gist of it?

I have been debating Magna vs. Martinrea for a couple of months now. Magna seems safer but due for a small correction, Martinrea seems to have more upside potential, what would you buy today and what would you estimate for a holding period? My profile = not afraid of riskier plays if the appreciation potential justifies the additional risk, I can hold a stock for 12 months to 12 years, thanks team!

Q: Hi since the last time Rainy River (RR) was asked, I would like your opinion of how I should choose in being bought out. I bought it @ $10.78 and is being bought out @ $3.83 cash (~65% loss) or to receive 0.5 of a common share of New Gold. I actually do have New Gold and bought it @ $3.21 a long time ago = a huge gain. What would you do in this case scenario? Can the cash offer in this case be claimed as a tax loss? Or should I take option 2 and add more shares to NGD? I believe NGD is a great company still b/c it was like a merger of 3 great companies back in the old days and was talked about when I started listening to BNN! I don't think these types of questions have ever been asked and welcome your knowledge. Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i team,

I was thinking about entering into positions in CGX and IPL.U. I am looking for income with some growth upside. Would you still recommend CGX with its recent increase given the recent acquisition from Empire or would you wait for a pullback? I was looking at IPL.U as well given its recent pullback. I already own STN and KBL.

If you wouldn't recommend CGX or IPL.U is there another name that you would recommend?

Thanks in advance as always.
