Q: I'm interested in investing in renewable energy companies by way of ETFs. Would you consider now to be a good time to start positions in ETFs based on your short and long term views for the sector. Secondly, what would be you favourite choice for an ETF that represents the Canadian renewable sector and one for global exposure to the renewable sector.

Q: Hi Guys,

I would like to add one more eft to my balance (75%) and growth (25%) portfolio, what would be your top North American pick for a 3 to 5 year hold? I already hold Arkk 3%, Dxg 7%, Arkg 2% and Tan 3.5%. Or should I just add to one of the ones already inside my portfolio.

thanks

Q: I can't say I expected the green industrial stocks to do so well so quickly. I mean, I'm happy and all but it's all moved so fast. And I must say that with the urgency I feel we need to deal with climate change I'm glad that the market seems to agree with me (finally - and perhaps only temporarily?!).

Can you provide a short list of Canadian and US companies that would fit into the general green industrial/energy space? I own most of the above, but am looking for something I may have missed. I don't own any US companies in the space.

Thanks

Q: Are any of the ARK funds involved in clean energy?
If not do you think adding a clean energy ETF would be complementary to owning ARK funds.
Thanks Peter
