Q: With respect to the Floating Rate Bond ETF (HFR) that has been recommended, according to the linked statement, the total expenses associated with the operation of the fund were 1.41% in the latest period, a figure that seems awfully high for a product with an advertised yield of just over 2% - with ETF'S, it's not sufficient to simply look at the MER since total costs can be substantially above the advertised MER

If one is concerned about the impact of rising rates on a interest product, would a ladder of gic's not be more appropriate, especially given they have no management expenses to water down the return

Q: Hi Guys - I have noticed Telus (T) has been coming down from $42 range. I'm not in a panic or anything as it is a long term hold. I just don't like when I can't seem to find related news or the rational for it to be back in the $39 range. Thanks in advance.

Q: I went to the annual meeting of Alliance Grain Traders. They had an analyst tour of their new facility at Minot this week, and apparently 24 analysts showed up, at their (not the company's) expense. The thrust of the meeting is AGT will emphasize their new facilities in Minot and Quebec, and will be less vulnerable cyclically. The stock has been going up recently.
Your thoughts?

Q: Hi Peter (and Crew),

I am totally pleased with the service you offer.

I rarely ask questions as I find accessing the questions database almost always provides the information I need.

I am looking to add a retirement holding to my TSFA. The time frame is a minimum of a 10 year hold. I am looking for cap gain and yield and am considering Chartwell (CSH.UN). Would you recommend it and if not, could you recommend 1 or 2 names that you prefer in this space.

Thanks for the wonderful service.

Q: With about a 7 year time frame before my grandchildren may need to start drawing money out of the RESP that I have for them, could you please suggest 4 or 5 stocks that don't necessarily need to "shoot the lights" out in performance but that are relatively safe and will provide an average plus return for this time period. Dividend payers/growers are fine with some added capital gains would be ideal.
Thank you.

Q: As a bit of beer snob(oxymoron?) I am disappointed with Big Rock's direction. For example, they introduced a new can for their IPA, but the quality sank. It's awful. I, for one, will not be buying Big Rock again.
