Q: I'm not familiar with ETNs or potential risks associated with them, but would appreciate your thoughts on a fund such as Barclays CAPE that seeks to invest in the undervalued sectors of the S&P 500.
Are the potential risks justified versus a low cost ETF that just tracks the S&P500?
How do you guys view Cinemark Holdings compared to Cineplex. Is Cinemark a better value? Does it have better growth potential and is it a better bet with the US recovery?
I heard that ETFs & Mutual funds that hold foreign companies are not required to report on T1135. If this is true, would it be good to invest in foreign companies but avoid reporting the T1135? Thank you.
Q: My husband and I are 65 and 60. We have never had any US or global investments in the past. We've now sold part of our RRSP portfolio (~20% of the total investment) and are ready to step into the US market with ETFs. My question is 1) The timing – the Feds will increase the interest rate very soon. Should I wait until the Fed announcement?, and 2) What US and/or Global ETFs should I buy? Thanks.
I was ready to buy Cinemark, waited for their report, thought at first glance it looked reasonable - and am surprised at how the stock price has reacted. Can you please comment?
Q: I've held this stock for a few months and I'm above water on this stock. If you held it would you continue to hold it or sell it and move on to something else. Thanks for taking the time to read my question.
Q: I've been waiting for a pullback to buy MIC-N and now it's happened, but it's been prompted by its latest earnings release. Could I please get you to look over the earnings and tell me what you think. Is it a good time to buy or not, and what the heck is "underlying proportionately combined free cash flow" that they focus on in their headline number? They must use the same "simple" accounting system as Brookfield Group.
Q: I currently have too much US cash (315) in my portfolio. Pls recommend a few US stocks - moderate risk - growth is a higher target than yield for me. Thanks
Q: Is the earning report on Monday satisfactory? They raised the dividend but the stock is dropping. What is the reason and do you like this stock? Thank you.
Would you go full position on Priceline today? Do you still believe in the company the way you did last year? Would it be worth biting the exchange bullet on this one when you have to buy every US dollar to purchase it? The holding period is 5+ year.
Thanks as always on your informed and prompt response.
Q: TSM pays about 3.5% div and it was a slow Eddy and gave me a 70% return since 2011. For this year to date it has lost 5.9%. This is in my RRSP. Cy (Cypress Semi) is much smaller and I think it has a much better growth potential, and it also pays a 4% dividend.I am a semi retired aggressive investor. Do you think this is a good swap?
Q: Disney missed earning slightly. Do you think current price decline is justified? I own Disney at much lower price. Should I sell to take the profits at current price? Thanks!
