Q: Hi Peter and Team: Do you think it is an appropriate time to buy a materials ETF, or should I wait?
On the subject of the number of questions: I think each question should pose essentially one focussed issue for your analysis. To ask for details on more than one stock is being greedy, but asking for a comparison of two similar stocks would be OK (in my opinion). Infrequent questioners who have multiple queries should pose multiple but separate questions.

Q: Is buying the DLR etf, calling your broker once it settles to convert it to DLR.U, and then selling the DLR.U in your US account the most economical way you know of for an average person to convert Canadian to US dollars? (Not for investment purposes, but if you need US$ for other reasons).
Q: I have been watching the base metals very closely lately, particularly XBM and ZMT, and think they could be ready for at least a short term gain. They have been down so long that, if I am right, there could be substantial upside. Would you agree?
Q: Peter and team: would you agree with the investing hypothesis that Obamacare is forcing Americans to own health insurance, which will effectively increase the healthcare market by 15% (a current estimate of uninsureds) simply through increased participation. Therefore, companies in the healthcare sector should see a similar lift and investors could benefit in the medium to long term versus other sectors? If you agree with the hypothesis, is there an ETF (or stock) you would recommend? I'm thinking of this for an RESP with a long time horizon.

Thank you.
Thank you.
Q: I have 25k to invest in the financial sector, I prefer Canadian banks outside of my registered accounts. Are the Canadian banks fully priced after the recent run. Do you see further upside in the Canadian Banks in the next 12 months and if so which 2 banks have the most to gain going forward. Which 2 banks will increase their dividends in the next 12 months. Instead of investing equally in two Canadian banks would I be better off to invest in ZWB or ZEB which hold all the major banks. Thanks for your highly valued opinion.

While listening to BNN this morning the host mentioned that China hedges the USD by buying US real estate. Can you recommend a good ETF that invests in US commercial real estate and do you think this is a good time to buy? I currently own Morguard NA Residential REIT. Can you comment regarding commercial US REIT vs. Cdn REIT that invests in US commercial property? Thank you.
