Q: I would like to buy a stock or ETF that deals with water treatment, possibly desalination, or purifying water. This would be a US holding, but not necessarily aimed at treating water in the US. What suggestions might you have? I thought about American WaterWorks, and would like an idea of what else is out there, especially for desalination treatment. Thank you.

Q: Coworker mentioned etf VGRO. The MRE is quite low. I was told this etf is a conglomerate of other etf’s. Was wondering if the mre’s in these etf are payed by the share holder (possibly hidden by hobbling the growth in share price). Basically I wonder if this conglomerate of etf’s is also a conglomerate of MRE’s.

Q: I own a small amount of FSL for revenue. I think they invest mostly in the US. They merged recently with FSD, unknown to me. The stock didn’t do much in the last few years and is illiquid. There are some other ETF and funds dealing with « senior loans ». Could you explain what they are and if they are worthed for income/diversification purposes. I also own PSB (laddered) and XSB (short-term) on the canadian side. If appropriate, would you suggest something for income in the US to replace FSL, if possible a canadian-listed ETF or fund. Thanks.

Q: I'm a little confused about how gold in Canada is reacting the last few days. When I check the US, ie SPDR gold, I see gold up strongly. Today GLD is up 1.42%. Canadian gold miners, though, are mostly down, today and over the last few sessions. GLD is up 2.54% over the last five sessions while XGD is up only 0.31% What explains this?
