Q: Hi Peter & Co.

I currently own ZDJ, ZSP & ZQQ. Should I replace these with VUN?

Thanks,

Henry

Q: I'm considering ZLU as an investment & would appreciate your comments.It will be about 10% of my portfolio & in U.S funds.Is it too conservative for growth? Except for owning TD it's my only U.S. exposure.Can you recommend any other etf funds with U.S. exposure?Thanks.

Q: I would like to divide $100,000.00 into 4 ETS of equal weights. Preferably high yield but still conservative. I have been trying to do it myself but I am overwhelmed by the choices. I currently have the two above but they may be too much the same.

Thanks for being there!

Q: I currently own a small position in Cerner and was wondering what your thoughts are on this company as a 1 to 2 year hold. Are there other companies in this sector that you would recommend (U.S. or Canadian)?
Thanks

Q: Hi Peter and Ryan,

I'm interested in getting exposure to the health care sector by using an available ETF. I ran across this one (IHI) through my research and would appreciate your analysis of the ETF. I think this one focusses on medical devices. Please let me know what you think the future holds for the ETF. If you think there are other investments that would be preferable I would appreciate your suggestions.

Q: Would you buy MON now essentially on a "bet" that the Bayer deal will go through?

Q: What is your stance on TSLA? They've had great growth and could be a company that disrupts the industry.

Q: I am looking for ETF similar to IHI US Medical Device in Canadian dollar and your thoughts on ZUQ Etf.

Thanks for the great job.

Q: Could you please comment on this ETF. I have held CWW for about 5 years and done well but am wondering what, if any, other approach you would take to replacing this investment in the water related sector? Many thanks.

Q: I would appreciate your comments about TEVA-N. Would you hold or would the money be better invested in another Pharma stock Thank you

Q: What would your 3 favorite growth stocks be going forward (US or Canada) and 3 fav dividend stocks (US or Can)
Tks

Q: I know you don't specifically cover US stocks. But I've been watching Netflix and waiting for a good entry point as I think it's a good brand that will innovate and stay on top of the industry they are in. The stock is currently rallying and the information I got from Investopedia is that Netflix will have exclusive rights to Disney Marvel, Pixar and Lucasfilm films starting this fall. As an uneducated investor I'm wondering is this a good time to buy or is this simply a frenzy based on a news release that will cool down and the stock will return to trading around $90.00? I know you can't predict the future, but the educated opinions I have received from 5i have me up in 8 out of 10 stocks I have purchased this year.
Thanks

Q: Air Lease (AL) - What are your thoughts on this company. I've held it for 2 years and I'm down about 10%. Starting to feel like dead money. Time to walk away ?

Q: what is your view on Lululemon Athletica? Is it a buy after going through its troubles last year?

Q: Is there a Canadian ETF that mirrors the Schwab US Broad Market ETF (SCHB,50)? It captures America's 2.500 largest stocks.

Thanks, Austin

Q: Hi Guys,

Am I still fine holding these companies in my U.S. portfolio, DIS, SBUX, V, HD, BRK.B and eft's SPY, QQQ, and VIG (All have a 3% weighting). 5 year time frame and low/medium risk.
My concern is that most of the individual stocks are in the Consumer sectors and I am overweighted in my total portfolio (25%) in these sectors.
thanks,
Jim

Q: Hi there

I know you don't cover Foreign stocks but wonder about your thoughts on Teekay. Based out of Vancouver and owner of oil tankers. Seems to be trading well below book value with good dividend. I have followed this for a while and know it's volatility but seems like it has found a base?

Much thanks

Q: I realize that you do not specialize in US stocks, but the "generic" behavior of this stock over the past week puzzles me. On May 18, it was announced that LKQ Corp. would be included in the S&P 500 index. I expected that this would be very good for the share price and that it should rise immediately upon the news (as index funds would have to purchase it). However, following the announcement the share price actually declined by several percent over the rest of the week. Do you have any explanation for such behavior?

Thanks!
