Q: Good morning, if one was to look for international oil and gas exposure, other than through a Canadian listed company like VET, would you prefer a service company like SLB, or a large integrated like XOM, CVX, BP, or RDS. Although you don't follow these, is there anything that you particularly like? Thanks!

Q: Hi, for my US exposure, I hold the following 3 US ETFs at the following total percentages:
VTI - 50%
VIG - 20%
IWO - 30%
I have $10K USD to add and I'm wondering whether VTI and VIG are too similar or whether I'm fine to add to all 3 and keep the same rough percentages.
Thanks
Robert

Q: Hi Peter, I am wondering if you have heard about this US stock. I find this REIT pretty interesting in owning properties of data centers rather than commercial, residential, shopping mall developments. Their financial statements looks pretty sound since 2005. Is this the only player in town? If all they hold is the land and tech just keeps advancing long term, what possibly could go wrong with this company (besides bad management)? Your thoughts? Thanks.
