Investment Q&A

Q: I have a large (for me) holdings in these two Mawer funds.
I can either keep paying the management fees and the annual capital gain, or sell MAW150 at a loss, or sell both, get hit by a large capital gain (MAW107) and buy Canadian ETF's holding small and mid US stocks.
What'd you do?
Thanks Jerry

Q: I am interest in buying Maw107. When I look at the fund It seems to me there is no bid and ask and no daily volume (from TD waterhouse mutual fund section).How they determine daily price change?

Q: I presently own Mawer US equity 108 and 150 global small caps
Would like your recommendations as to buying two more Mawer funds that are down a lot and may have some good upside in the next two/three years
Alternatively can you recommend an ETF instead of the mawer funds you choose since the etf would have lower fees
Finally would You choose the Mawer funds over the ETFs you recommend in spite of the higher Mawer fees with the expectation of better returns from Mawer ?
I would like to purchase with Canadian dollars
Thank you

Q: I understand that this Mawer Fund is closed. Is there another Canadian fund, no load possibly, which you would rate as well as MAW107. thanks

Q: Dear 5i team,
I've owned CHO100 since 2006 and I've had approximately a 75% ROI since this time which is in my opinion lackluster. I had high hopes for the is fund and its manager but things have not worked out as well as I would have hoped. That said, recently it has done well compared to pears but still. Do you think it's time to cut to the cord? Any opinions on its future prospects.

I've also owned MAW107 since 2004 and have had phenomenal results of over 500%. So much so that I am wondering if it would be a good time to cash in profits Again, any thoughts on the fund's future prospects? Both are in my RRSP and I have still at least 15 years before I will be needing to draw from it.
Many thanks in advance.

Q: The mutual fund of PH&N has many of the shares used by 5I Research . Mawer also uses many of those companies.
Do you know any ETF that would be similar to those funds?
Those 2 funds are not available to individual investor.
Do you know any similar fund that is available in serie D or A?
Thank you.

Q: Hello 5i Team
Thank you for guiding us thorough these challenging times , i read all the Q&A everday
to keep in formed .I would like your opinion ,why the Mawer New Canadian has over 11% in Cash which is their top holding and their other Canadian Equity fund has 4.4 % in Cash. Why do you think there is such a wide range allocated to Cash ?
Thanks
Claudio
