Q: Hi there, this is my first question to you. I have enjoyed reading other questions and your answers.

What is your take on Nokia? 5G is big in the news and are they a big player in the US on this? They seem have a good dividend yield. Does it look like a potential for a long term hold. Thank you!

Q: I am thinking of shifting my portfolio to overweight Chinese equities such as Baidu, Ctrip, Iqiyi, NIO, JD.com, BABA, Tencent. I have a very high risk tolerance and these are all long term holds 10+ years if needed. Couple of questions, firstly any red flags in any of these names. Secondly, what do you think of Chinese equities in general? My thesis is that the Chinese market sold off aggressively last year and valuations look cheap. Trade wars seems to have been priced in and if we get some type of deal potential upside there. I know the economy is slowing, but I believe this is priced in also as thats all I hear almost on a daily basis from BNN, Bloomberg, CNBC, etc. Also, the possibility of stimulus and rate cuts seem bullish for the equities. Your thoughts? Thank you.

Q: At current levels this ETF is down ~21% from highs set in January 2018. With a ~4% yield and 18B in net assets would you see the current levels as attractive to begin to step into the ETF? In your opinion is brexit already priced into this ETF, or would expect more downside should brexit go through? Your thoughts on the opposite scenario where Britain remains in the EU would also be appreciated. Thank you.

Q: Hi Guys. BNP Paribas
I think its one of Frances largest publicly traded banks. It has a pretty good track record of being profitable, has a pretty broad product line, Insurance, wealth management etc, pays a good dividend, looks reasonably valued.
Would you feel this is a safe investment at this price for a long term hold, and is there a risk of it getting hammered even more like the U.S. banks did in 2008.
thanks Gord

Q: Happy Holidays,
can I get your thought on the following:
1. why is ZID-T recent performance decent and FIH.U poor?
2. why is ZID-T recent performance decent and SP500 index poor?
I'm curious why ZID performance is relatively good as of late.

thanks
