Q: Hello Peter and team,
I was expecting with higher rates that insurance and banks will do well. Trisura is behaving like a tech stock and the banks and insurance are not doing well despite good numbers. Is this due to uncertainty geo-politically? Thanks very much.

Q: Greetings 5i,

I own both of these and have done well. I consider them long term holds. Bruce Flat has stated last quarter he sees 20% growth per year over several years. Apollo has merged with Athene (insurance /annuities etc). My question is, in an inflationary and subsequent rising interest rate environment, will these two companies face significant headwinds? Have we seen the “top” in the asset management class short to medium term? Please explain why or why not. Deduct as needed.

Cheers!

Q: Context: Sold CNQ after a long run up. Funds now to deploy into a locked in RSP about to be unlocked into an income stream. Currently have all blue chip dividend payers and am looking to offset risk by initiating a bond position. Looking for:
-CDN domiciled etf with NA and/or Global focus
-3% minimum yield
-High grade but willing to accept corporates for yield
-Prefer shorter term to maturity, to match future rate increases
-If not CDN domiciled, willing to look at US and willing to look at more than one to match criteria

Thank you!
