Q: Peter and Team,
What are your thoughts on new purchases of Apple today following their product presentations. It seems like they are adding a whole new revenue stream to their business with the electronic wallet on the new devices. It makes me wonder if now is a good time to buy for the long term (i.e. 5 years+).

Q: Dear Peter,
I'm glad to see that contributions to your ride are continuing and you are now at 98%. Way to go! My question is about investing in European securities. It was mentioned in a recent answer that 5% of a portfolio be in Europe and 10% in USA. What do you think are the best way(s) to invest in those areas?

Q: Hi,
Could you confirm if my reasonning is correct? Earlier this week, Mario Draghi introduced a series of measures aimed at boosting the European economy. One of the effects of these measures will be to lower the value of the Euro relative to the US dollar.
I'm contemplating buying shares of Nestle. If I were to wait a few weeks or months for the Euro to effectively fall, would Nestle's share be cheaper if I bought them over the counter (OTC) at that time? Or is the Nestle share price OTC set based on other factors?

Q: Hi.
Though the valuations are reasonable and I'm still invested in many 5i stocks, I foresee a correction coming some time in ~ 2015. To mitigate this, I plan on moving 'a bit' of my equities into Vanguard Total Stock Market (VT) - the ETF of everything I call it ... My thinking is that North America (TSX) will be hit a little harder than the world in general when this occurs. When it does, and it will, I will sell VT and buy 5i stocks back at a discount. I know you can't time the market, and this is a bit crystal ball-ish - but the downside of doing so seems low ... Any advise or comment? Many thanks.

Q: Hi Peter/Team,
Good luck on your ride Peter. Come back safely - we really need you here! ;-)
I have a question about some US funds I read about on Seeking Alpha. I know you focus on Canada but would appreciate any general or specific comments about these funds.
I paraphrase the description by a poster: "...funds are around half US stocks and around half foreign stocks, and write covered calls against some of the shares in the portfolio and have payouts over 8-9%."
Here is the list:
EXG.US Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Global Diversified Equity Income Fund
IGA.US Voya Global Advantage and Premium Opportunity Fund
IGD.US Voya Global Equity Dividend and Premium Opportunity Fund
IDE.US Voya Infrastructure Industrials and Materials Fund
BOE.US BlackRock Global Opportunities Equity Trust
The poster also mentioned the following fund that "...writes call options against some of the shares in the portfolio."
GNT.US GAMCO Natural Resources Gold & Income Trust
Any thoughts or advice you may have would be greatly appreciated. I am looking for long term income with low to moderate risk. I suspect these are high risk though.
All the best, Michael.

Q: Hi Peter and Team,
I am currently an owner of American Tower (AMT.US). I bought this sub $60 based on people I know in the business who believe the demand for Tower Space will be strong over the next foreseeable future. There are a lot of naysayers out there on this company but I cannot find anything in their financials or results that would cause me concern. Am I missing something. I like both the growth and yield on this one.
thanks for all you do!
