Q: Please give me your thoughts on the above. The first two are ETFs , and that to me means covering more than one crypto currency ? Could you elaborate on this and what they cover as an ETF ? Their mer's = 1%. What is the diff. between QBTC and QBTC.U and is there an mer on these ? If you were to buy Bitcoin in a TFSA, would it be one of these or would you recommend another one that might have lower management fees. Looking at these 4 on the stock market today, QBTC is up 2.76% while the 2 first ones are up less than 1% ? I certainly like a 2.76% daily increase ! Thanks for any info.

Q: Hi Guys,

To hedge, or not to hedge? Is this the question between BTCC/BTCC.B/EBIT?

Looking to join the bit-convoy in a small percentage for some fun. Hoping to identify some advantages/disadvantages between these guys.

Q: I get why rising rates would help good 'ol fashion bank stocks. While fintech names seem to be considered more growth oriented, wouldn't higher rates ultimately help those stocks as well?

I own the names above. Any issues with any of them?

Thanks

Dave

Q: Hi,
I noticed other questions covering the fact GSY was added to the index and that we might expect a bit of pick up and / or increased volume with it. However, it seemed to drop fairly hard on Friday and I am wondering if I've missed something material here. Interested in your thoughts and as always appreciate the input! Thanks,
Dawn

Q: I would like to reduce the number of stocks I hold and one area that might be easiest to tackle first is financials. I hold ZEB, ZWC, BNS, and a lot of MFC.
I was considering selling all the above (except keeping a good portion of MFC) and putting the proceeds into FIE because of its seemingly good blend of dividend and growth..
But I need a sounding board - ZWC is the only under-performer in the group from my perspective.
