Q: Hi,

Home builders seems to be doing well in the U.S. Do you think a housing boom is underway ? Is it too late to invest in the sector ? If you were to invest, which would be your picks for strong growth ? Short term ? Long term ?

Q: Hi Team,
For an 18 year old who just opened their TFSA and starting with $6500, what stocks or ETFs (CDN and/or US) would you start with? There are no trading fees so there is no worry to buy 10 names if that is the best way forward.
Thanks
