Q: I have been reading and listening to interviews about the idea of investing in carbon credits. Of course, there is some typical "going to the moon" hype associated with the narrative. However, the thesis is intriguing. Do you know of a carbon credit investment vehicle? Thanks.

Q: Hello Peter and team,
Do you think Brookfield renewables is surging (to move away from oil) due to higher oil prices? If oil dips, would you think the stock will get hit? From the various sectors, which one do you think offers the best potential given the current situation? Would the agriculture sector be a good one with cow on tsx. Thanks very much

Q: Hi,
I am seeing what appears to be a surge in copper and wondering if this might be an opportunity to invest in either an ETF or individual stock. Given the current market, which would you prefer? Risk tolerance is fairly high, but I have little diversification in the materials sector other than GDX and SLX. Most of my available cash is in US dollars, within tax sheltered accounts. Thanks in advance for your sage advice!

Q: Hello friends,

I was watching KRBN for a good price to start a small position and participate in the global trend of reducing pollution. However, I've noticed that in the past couple of weeks the price went down hard and fast.

I couldn't come up with a better explanation for this downward trend other than, perhaps, the fund is inversely correlated with the price of oil. Do yo have a better explanation/reason for this trend?

Many thanks!
