Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I currently hold Fairfax India and Faifax Africa. I consider them long term investments but I’m concerned about recent performance as well as (mainly) the longer term grind of the high management fees. I want direct exposure to growing populations and economies for a multi decade Rrsp.

I have the same questions for both (please deduct accordingly):

1. What would be your preferred investment for a multi decade Rrsp, for exposure to Africa: FAH, or an ETF, or something else? If something else, what would it be? Why?

2. Same questions for India and FIH.

Thanks you for your great service.

Q: Hi,

What is your opinion of this company that merged in 2016? They seem to have a required service but not sure how they compare to their peers or if they are the market leader in what they provide.
How do their financial metrics look?
How does the management team rate?
Any cautionary flags that you see?
Would they be a good investment in a well diversified portfolio?

Cheers,
Steve

Q: The MSCI announced today that it was quadrupling the proportion of mainland shares in its global benchmarks. Do you feel that now is a good time to invest in a China ETF? If yes, what ETF would you recommend for a TFSA, and for a non-registered account?

Thank you as always for your excellent advice.

Q: Would you consider this company to be a long term hold and if so would it be better held in a RIFF or a TFSA? I tend to be overweight in Cdn banks and utilities so looking to be more diversified. If NVZMY is a thumbs down I'd appreciate a couple of other suggestions, perhaps in Tech or Healthcare. Thanks.
