Q: I have read today the Morningstar Credit report. I own 10K and made 23% so far :-)
Their leverage scares me, gone much higher since your last opinion on TMO, while they only have 600 mill in cash. Can I stay or sh I sell out.

Q: I am setting up an all ETF portfolio for a 20 yr plus holding period and I have a two-part question. The first part concerns the makeup of the Canadian/US component. Is it better to go with a combination of SPY and XIC or would including CDZ and VIG provide stability and perhaps a bit more growth to the mix (keeping in mind that I intend to hold at least 5% of each but don't need income yet)?

Secondly, I am looking for higher risk assets for my TFSA. I was thinking of IWO. I know that there are specialized sectors I could include but I looking for a fairly hands-off approach. Do you think this approach would serve me well - I know that it is only one asset type - or is there a better mix out there that would still be quite manageable?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: My TFSA is all in Can $. I have $12000.00 to add this year, so would like your opinion, on the US Tech sector, or the US Bank sector.
I would buy a ETF. At this time would you go hedged or unhedged?
Thanks for your continued support.

Q: I have US$ in my RIF that I would like to invest defensively given general high valuations and the potential for a correction. Would VIG and VIGI be good choices or would you have other suggestions. Thanks for the help. Doug

Q: Hi, what do you think of Sabra Healthcare REIT (SBRA) for aging US population? How does it compare to CSH and Sienna in Canada? Is timing OK with forecasted 3 rate changes in US this year? Other better suggestions for aging US population?

Q: Facebook has had a good run in the past 12 months and there is a good mix of analysts who rate it as a buy. However Pivotal Research rates it as a sell and calls for a 24% drop in the current price. What is your opinion of FB? Is Googl a better stock at this juncture or would you recommend I look at another stock in this sector.
