Q: I would like to combine JPM with two new other US positions in a US$ portfolio to achieve a good mix in the financial sector. Wondering what your thoughts are about adding an investment company like SCHB or AMTD or is there another entity that you suggest?....and also an insurance company that you would suggest that would benefit from rising US interest rates? (I currently hold SLF in a Cdn$ portfolio.)....Thanks

Q: Hi,
I live in Ontario and we have private medical benefits through my husbands employer that cover 80% (to a limit) of our medication costs. I recently refilled my son's asthma inhalers. The government covered the entire cost and our private coverage (which we pay a portion for) now pays nothing. The government / tax payer now pays the entire amount and private insurance now pays nothing even when the customer has coverage. Do you think this will have a significant impact on any health insurance share prices/earnings? If so what companies would benefit the most by having a large client base in Ontario?
Thanks,
Kerri
