Q: I would like to increase my global exposure and was looking at Cymbria, or would Edgepoint Global be a better investment? From your last answers on Cymbria, you stated it was trading at a high premium. What would be a good entry point to buy Cymbria? I notice it has come down a little bit since then. What about the management fee for these products, are they reasonable?
Thank you for all the advice I have received over the years!

Q: I have an a US "balanced" portfolio that holds V (and also BAC) , you suggested in an earlier answer to another person that for diversification, might take a position in SQ. If both V and SQ were held, what weightings would you consider giving V and SQ, and also BAC, like 5, 4, 3 or 2 %, within the Financial sector portion of the portfolio as a whole?.....thanks....Tom

Q: Invesco just announced that its assets under management grew by less than 0.1% in August vs July. That does not seem like a good omen -appears to be capital gains growth inside portfolios (~3% S&P) just outpacing withdrawals.

In your opinion, what weighting should be given to this metric in this industry vs the large dividend yield 5% and low P/E of 8?
