Q: hi 5i,
what are you top picks for non-Canada core ETF's for long term hold/accumulation? im looking for US markets, European, Asia, and India. I like very liquid entities, and a dividend is fine. If possible, can you include both hedged/unhedged to $CDN. I notice that most of the unhedged versions of the ETF's have higher annual returns-do you recommend hedging or no hedging for the $CDN?
thanks, Chris

Q: OGN's has reported consistently good results and the share price has responded accordingly, such that it trades, now, at pennies below its target price (per your database.) Likewise, while it's profitable, its P/E is 143. Is its appreciation potential baked-in, or do royalty plays' different capital structures (vs mining) recommend different yardsticks?

Q: I currently own a full position in Sun Life (5%) in my portfolio but would like to add to my insurance component via a Reinsurance firm. Would this be a complementary move or just a duplication of the exposure I get via SLF? If this is a good idea, would EG or ACGL be superior options?

Q: This morning they reported and for the EPS, they beat handily the with .51 vs expected .39. The cause of this was a great increase in their margins. On the other hand, the revenue came much lighter at nearly 75M vs expected 92.6M.
They mentioned 1 customer had a delay which will come at a later date of 35M which would have made the revenue for the quarter at 110M vs once again the expected 92.6.
In your experience, how would the market react to such news?
