Q: I have noticed that, when someone asks about investing in Google, Amazon, etc., you have recommended one ETF or another. I don't believe you have ever recommended FDN, which I hold and like. Is there a negative to this vehicle that I may have overlooked?

Q: Which would you buy today: CSU or ESL?
I currently own both, with my CSU holdings 2X the size of my ESL holdings. I also own OTC and GIB.A, both slightly less than ESL holdings. I am leaning towards CSU or ESL, but you could sway me to add to OTC or GIB.A.
Which one would you buy today for a TFSA? Or should I wait another month or two for the volatility to settle down?

Q: What is your opinion about this exchange traded fund of all can
Q: The only tech stock I hold at present is DH. I am considering adding OTC and GIB.A. Would these three stocks complement each other, or would you suggest an alternative grouping? Thank you.
Q: I hold XIT in both my RRSP and Cash accounts as my tech exposure, which is roughly 10%. 77% of the ETF is made up of 5 stocks = CGI-24%, CSU-21%, OTC-15%, BB-11% and DH-6%. It has performed reasonably well, even beating out it's USA cousin XLK (7.8% vs 1.3% total return over the last year).
I am reasonably positive on CGI, OTC and DH, neutral on BB and thought quite highly of CSU until recently. It appears to be rolling over. I suspect it might be some profit taking due to these ugly markets.
Is XIT still a reasonable holding for tech exposure? It really comes down to CGI and CSU, in my opinion...thanks for your guidance.

Q: Intrinsyc released 2015 preliminary results this morning and the fourth quarter looked outstanding. Since they changed their business model 2 years ago they have been consistently EBITDA positive and now revenues and EBITDA are growing rapidly. Other than risks of still being small, ITC is in a fast growing tech space. Is the market going to start picking up on this as the stock looks inexpensive still.
Q: Hello,
SWKS has been a top pick over the last two months twice by Bruce Tatters on BNN. Unfortunately, I own this stock and it continues to escalate on the down side. I get bits of negative information from my Itrade account about it. However, you will know a lot more about it than I do. Should I take my losses?
