Q: For ETFs with smaller AUM (like some Canadian ESG/SRI etfs) what is the most you would invest in that fund. For example would you be comfortable investing $100K in a fund with $10M AUM? Would you look at some other metric or just stay away from smaller funds all together?

Thanks!

Q: Good morning,

I have some cash and am looking to add more non-Canadian content to my stock portfolio which is 79.5% Canadian stocks. I have only 4.5% in Europe in FEZ (US$) and XEU (C$), and 16% in individual US stocks. I have no emerging markets. I am thinking of adding to XEU because the European market is cheaper than the US and the large number of value stocks in the ETF should benefit from re-opening in Europe. For a balanced investor would it be reasonable to double Europe to 9% by adding to XEU bringing foreign content to 25%?

Q: I happily sold June 18, 2021 calls today against my long XME position. Given that this yielded a, to me, amazing 4.47%, I anticipate a Summer of repeating (I hope) this process. Do you perceive that the metals "surge" is in my favor? (note: being assigned would not disturb me in the least) What is your position on the value of covered call writing for income purposes?

Q: What are your thoughts on this new ETF: NNRG? What do you think about the manager Eric Nuttall. What about the fees? Do you think it is a good way to get exposure to oil and gas? Or would you go with a couple of oil & gas stocks individually.
Thanks

Q: So this new crypto etf has about 60% of weight in its top 10 holdings with Coinbase on top. I'd ask for any initial view on its setup or other comment you may have and whether this may become a preferred way to invest in cryto at some point. Thank you - Ken

Q: We have seen the Canadian dollar increase to 82 cents in this environment, if one believes that the Loonie will fall should I move from the hedged to the unhedged versions of the ETFs.

Thanks
