Q: I hold these 4 stocks in my LIRA account and do hold some of your other income stock recommended in my RRSP account. I just wonder if these 4 stocks are okay in holding in a LIRA account or would you prefer a different mix of stocks in a LIRA account as both KWH.UN and VNR are utility stocks?If so what do you consider the best 4 stocks inside a LIRA account?
Q: My understanding of options is not very good other than the basics. Is ZPW a bull play or bear play on the market ? Part of me thinks that a put means a bear play but if the market goes up the put expires worthless and the fund collects the premium. So could you explain what conditions favour this ETF over one like ZWH which uses a call strategy ? What is the difference between how a rising, flat, or falling market will effect these two ETF's ? I notice ZPW has a slightly higher yield. Thank you.

Q: Hi Team
I'm interested in adding to the fixed income component of my portfolio. I prefer active management for my fixed income, what would be three solid funds where the managers have flexibility to hold a broad range of fixed income (corporate, government, prefs, etc.)? PMO005 looks solid for a portion of the fixed income component, are there any other funds you would suggest? Thanks for your great service!

Q: GDP for both Canada and USA are speaking to economies that are coming back sooner rather than later. You wouldn't happen to know what "short" theory that Alingvest may have to suggest that the companies that Alaris is invested in may some how not enjoy the inevitable return to NORMAL economic activity.
