Q: Greetings - Katie Stockton has just launched this actively managed etf which utilizes her technical analysis and rebalances monthly via 14 sector etfs. In down cycles she will use treasuries and gold to strive to reduce capital loss. Her Fairlead research company seems well respected in the industry. Aside from the usual caveats that a new etf needs some time to see how it will perform and the need for it to build sufficient liquidity do you have any views regarding Katie's track record as a technician, her reputation in the industry and the approach of active sector rotation based on technicals this particular etf will follow. Would appreciate your views. Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter and 5i Team
Have held ENGH for several years in a LIF. I like the dividend of SYZ for income and am considering switching mainly for the dividend. I believe you rate ENGH higher than SYZ but like them both. Which do you think will make a better recovery? Is this a reasonable move?
Thanks
Gary

Q: Hello Peter and team,
Is NVDA a buy under $280 per share and what is its current PE ratio? I was thinking of buying open text but this company does not seem to get a lot of positive attention (stock hardly moves) in risk on or risk off markets. Do you the current price at $53 is good entry point? Thanks very much.

Q: Hi,

For fixed income, from your Q&A, it still make sense to have some holdings in inflation protected bond funds. In your opinion, would it be a good idea to shift most bond holdings into funds like these until inflation abates? What are your favourite inflation protected funds in the US and Canada?

Thank you, Michael

Q: Just an additional answer to those who are interested in ADR'S as a way to diversify. Re costs, yes there are some. Eg, in my registered account, on my BP dividend, I get charged a fee on each dividend payout. Equates to 1.5% of the amount paid. I take it this is the local institutions custody and processing fee. Yet to see on UL but will likely be similar
