Q: Can I have your opinion on the share price decrease for CSX over the last month. It appears there is a lot of employee pushback to the changes as well as dissatisfied customers. Has the shine come off of Hunter Harrison?

Q: Can you explain currency hedging with a SIMPLE example. Maybe include when it would be advantageous to use a hedged product versus unhedged. I don't think I'm slow, but it's just not clear to me, and I may not be alone.

Q: Further to Eddie's question, would any US based companies have issues getting into the marijuana industry (even outside of the US) if the industry wasn't legal at a Federal level in the US? I have heard of US individuals avoiding investments in this area just to be cautious.
Q: Hi 5i,
I'm thinking on adding ZWH 5%-10% to my RRSP to cover my US exposure. This is for a income portfolio.
My portfolio now consist of 50% GIC's and
5% in each of the following stock.. BNS,EMA,ECI,ENB,SRU.UN,BCE.
10% in CDV.
Can you suggest another ETF that would fit better then ZWH? Or would you consider ZWU a better position. I see 5i income portfolio doesn't have any US equity holdings.
Would the US dividend be tax excempt within the ETF?
I look foreward to your answers.
Thank for all the excellent info!!

I see that CDI is being bought out by AEI...a private company... for $8.25 per share. So please explain what this means for CDI. Will they keep there name and become an affiliate or just become AEI? I believe AEI is a private company...if so does that mean CDI will no longer be traded on the exchange? One last question...the board seems pleased with this merger...will CDI have any ability to move higher than $8.25 in the next year...time to sell or better hold for awhile? I am perplexed...
Thanks!

SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY $675.02)
Q: Your portfolio review was helpful and appreciated. Am gradually tweaking our savings re diversification. Presently no healthcare. Am mulling a 3 - 5% (of equity) stake. We can do this in either Cdn or US$. The US healthcare sector is our preference. If we use our Cdn$, it appears you favour ZUH? Can you recommend an equivalent etf if we use our US$? I'm also hoping for your thoughts on whether now even the time to take a position in healthcare (given the current confusion down south) or would we be better off just to add this cash to our SPY or XSP. Thanks for your help.

Q: I have seen my investments total value in US stocks and non hedged ETFs going down lately, although individual stock price are doing OK.
I know it is very difficult to predict currency fluctuations, I would like your view and recommendation on how to protect my portfolio. Is buying hedged ETFs is the solution and what about your view on the Canadian dollar against the US $ and the Euro.
I value your opinion
