Q: I am concerned that over the next few years, the US dollar will gradually lose its reserve currency status. Currently, the US dollar is high relative to other Western currencies. Can you please suggest a way that I can track the value of the US dollar relative to not only Western currencies, but to those of the BRICs, emerging markets, etc.. My view is that once the US dollar starts to weaken, then the value of gold, commodities, and emerging markets will increase. Do you agree with this hypothesis?

Thank you for your excellent advice and service.

Q: At 60 I suddenly find myself semi-retired. Although it's a few years earlier than anticipated, I'm actually pretty excited - I've used the CRA retirement calculator (an excellent tool) and have a solid plan. I do need to make a $150,000 RRSP account last until I am 70 when I plan on applying for CPP and OAS. I want to pull $18,000 per year from the RRSP account a so it does require some growth. Can you suggest a mix of US and Canadian holdings and or etf's (about 50% allocation each country) for such a scenario? Thanks so much.

Q: I would like to express my gratitude for your advice regarding not selling Aritzia stock before earnings. At the time, I was primarily concerned with safeguarding my gains. You wisely emphasized that quarterly results should not be the sole factor in determining buy and sell decisions. Now, I fully appreciate the correctness of your advice. I held onto my position and refrained from purchasing a protective put. Recent news indicates that Aritzia is aggressively expanding its presence in the US, signaling further growth. As a result, I am still enjoying a remarkable 100% gain on this stock. Thank you once again!

Q: Hello,
I thought given the news about Goeasy's ceo change (uncertainty) would have moved some investors to propel holdings.. Also, what is holding the stock back? The market is moving higher today but propel is hardly moving... also, any news on Topicus.. The stock is at a standstill with few trades taking it higher than it dips again.. is it becoming a trading stock
