Q: I have some cash in my account and am thinking of adding to MAL and to XHY. Recent news and performance of MAL has been good, but I am concerned about the effect of US rate increases on XHY. My account is well diversified. I would appreciate your comments on both.

Q: Good Morning: My question is about the Horizons ETF listed as TXF. (It did not show up in the drop down menu.) The full name is First Asset Tech Giants Covered Call or something like that. I know it is Cdn. hedged which I am fine with and it uses a covered call strategy to optimize returns. Do you have an opinion on this ETF in regard to management fees (they do not seem excessive to me for an actively managed fund), performance, sector and weighting within a portfolio. I don't own a lot of big tech names directly (small holdings in Alphabet, Corning, Intel, Qualcomm and Apple,all of which are in this fund) and wanted some additional exposure in this sector. I already have a small position in this ETF (less than 1%) and would like to double it. Thanks for your input. don

Q: This ETF in your Income P/F has been pretty flat since 5i started it, I think in 2014, and do you think it will remain a long term hold? How much of a hit would you expect it to take with a quarter point rise in the Fed rate and what is its duration? Thanks, J.

Q: I would like to divide $100,000.00 into 4 ETS of equal weights. Preferably high yield but still conservative. I have been trying to do it myself but I am overwhelmed by the choices. I currently have the two above but they may be too much the same.

Thanks for being there!

Q: Hi Peter and Ryan,

I'm interested in getting exposure to the health care sector by using an available ETF. I ran across this one (IHI) through my research and would appreciate your analysis of the ETF. I think this one focusses on medical devices. Please let me know what you think the future holds for the ETF. If you think there are other investments that would be preferable I would appreciate your suggestions.

Q: I know you don't specifically cover US stocks. But I've been watching Netflix and waiting for a good entry point as I think it's a good brand that will innovate and stay on top of the industry they are in. The stock is currently rallying and the information I got from Investopedia is that Netflix will have exclusive rights to Disney Marvel, Pixar and Lucasfilm films starting this fall. As an uneducated investor I'm wondering is this a good time to buy or is this simply a frenzy based on a news release that will cool down and the stock will return to trading around $90.00? I know you can't predict the future, but the educated opinions I have received from 5i have me up in 8 out of 10 stocks I have purchased this year.
Thanks
