Q: I have $10K to invest. Is it better to buy Apple shares directly or should I buy Canadian Depositary Receipts (CDRs). If the stock moves up 10% will CDR also move up by the same %. Apple pays dividends will I also get dividends if holding CDR. Is it safe to buy CDR what happens if it gets delisted?

Thanks for the great service

Q: The above ETFs represent my current holdings for Intn’l Equity exposure and are held in my RRSP. I am able to add to my Intn’l exposure in my RRSP and would like your recommendation for a C$ ETF that might fill in any gaps that my current holdings don’t cover or alternatively I could just add to my current holdings.
I do not need to RIF for 8 more years but some dividend yield would be preferable as I do draw out my div/int earnings annually.

Q: Currently my only energy exposure is by way of pipelines; ENB and PPL. Given the prospects for good energy demand and increasing dividends in the sector I would like your recommendation for a company with good dividends and relative strength to withstand the ups and downs in the sector.
This would be a long term position in my dividend focused non-registered portfolio.
I have targeted the above 3 companies as prospects but would be open to others you may recommend. Any preference for Oil vs Gas focus?

Q: I have been tempted to buy Lightspeed to put in my tfsa, as i see it falling. It is hard for me to judge, though, whether a fairly new stock, like this and quite volatile is appropriate for a retired person. I have a moderately high risk tolerance. But is this too risky for that demographic, do you think?
Thanks as always
