Q: The difference between these two is fairly wide. I am under the impression the gap should have closed over time but it remains fairly high. I have a small number of shares of BIPC and a larger number of BIP.UN. Thinking of selling BIP.UN and buying BIPC with the proceeds, both have some gains. Both in a Cash account. Thoughts?
Thank you.

Q: Is this Etf good for a 2 -5 year hold? Thank you.

Q: I read where the Chinese gov't has approved a digital yuan through Yuan Pay Group. They talk about having a fixed price and have someone immediately call you to put money in. They seem pretty pushy and articles say that once the digital yuan is adopted by others it could take off. Appreciate your thoughts

Q: Follow your balanced portfolio. I have about 15% of my portfolio in US funds. It is split with15% google and 85% vgg. Wondering if I should split my vgg with another us etf.

Q: In other answers I see that you are recommending tax loss selling. My positions in PYPL and ROKU are down about 50% and they're large enough that the tax loss would definitely benefit me. However, I'm worried about selling them because I feel like if the market improves, they could bounce back to the point where my benefit from the tax loss is nullified by the missed bounce until I can re-buy after 30 days. (For reference, if they bounce back to their early April prices, that would outweigh my benefit from the tax loss).

On the other hand, I think both are attractive at today's prices so if I don't sell for a tax loss I would probably add a bit to both positions.

Do you like PYPL and ROKU at today's prices (to add to current positions) or do you think they're better targets for tax-loss selling and re-buying in 30 days?

Q: Just a reminder that there is some detailed info on Norbert’s Gambit In the forums under the heading Trading & F/X Strategies. Additional entries with newer information are always welcome.

Q: How is GDP and its growth measured ; by $ amount or # of units ?
For example, if GDP growth is 3.1 % dollar growth but inflation is 5.1% is the economy not contracting?

Unit measurement seems to be the more accurate measurement.

Thanks. Derek

Q: Is this a good time to initiate a position in NPK?

Q: Could I get your opinion/information on ACME Lithium? Owners own on much?

Thank you.

Q: I've owned Pender Growth for a long time and done very well. I've accepted the high fees and volatility as the price of ownership.
But , it's now heavily concentrated in one stock - Copperleaf - and has followed CPLF's downward trajectory.
Want to make sure I am understanding this correctly , because , if so, this concentration puts me beyond comfort level with dollar value tied largely to the fate of CPLF.
Your general thoughts on PTF and its current composition appreciated .
Thank-you.

Q: My portfolio analysis indicates I am somewhat uderweight in basic material. My present holdings are FNV and NTR. Now that I am retired, my risk level should be considered low to moderate. Dividends are not particularly important. Could you suggest 2 or 3 companies in that sector that have good prospects over the next 5 years. If none are particularly interesting at this time, I would rather wait. In the same vein, could I suggest adding the option of searching by specific sectors in Questions? Thank you.

Q: Looking at one of these conglomerates in my US Spousal Rsp. All seem similar in their business mix however, BX offers higher dividend and has the largest market cap. BLK seems to offer an outsized dividend and trades accordingly.
Question, for a long term Rsp hold, which of the three is most compelling
