Q: If one wanted to add exposure to the lumber industry do you have a favourite among these? I see that Resolute seems to have run away from the pack. WEF has trailed the others recently and has caught my eye. Please let me know which lumber stock you would suggest and why. It would also be helpful to know if you see adding in this sector as well timed or poorly timed. Thanks

Q: Hello Peter and Ryan,
Happy New year and thanks again for the great service. Grande West was supposed to report on Dec 19th 2017. I have been looking at news releases and have not seen any earnings from Grande West. Any ideas what is going on? In general, if a company is to release its earnings on a particular date and it delays the earnings date, what does it say about that company? Is there a site i can look at (other than company site) that provides exact release dates. What is your view on Greenspace Brands and Yangarra Resources. Yangarra has done well last year eventhough most oil stocks were down. Is their balance sheet better than most oil companies in Canada? Thanks again.

Q: Good Morning: I sent this question in last week but am assuming it got lost in cyberspace somehow. I am looking for a recommendation on a materials etf since I am very light in this space. My only holding at the moment is BHP. Also, is this a space that you would consider it necessary or important to have some exposure to at this time or in the near future. Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter and everyone at 5i,
Regarding Teresa's question about copper earlier today, here's an article from the Financial Post that illustrates copper's role in the potential for an electric vehicle sales uptick expected by the author:

Q: Hi everyone.
I have several questions so please take as many credits as needed.
1. Can you recommend an ETF for Japan? Several experts have recommended diversifying out of NA and into Japan.
2. Do you foresee a relative shortage in copper supply in the near future? If so, can you recommend a natural resource company that would benefit from the increased copper demand.
3. Do you know of an American equivalent to BNN?

Q: Hello 5i,

I know you have a bullish view of zinc and recommend TV (which I currently own) for exposure to the metal. I'm wondering if you also have a bullish view on copper?
If so, what would be your recommended strategy for exposure to this base metal? Would you recommend owning a company that is exposed to both metals, or two separate companies that focus on each metal?

Thanks again and Merry Christmas!
