Q: Dear Sir,
Hearing a lot about the upcoming 5G system boosting economic activity. Can you suggest companies in the robotics, communications, chips manufacturer, etc. sectors that one can invest in to benefit from the 5G roll out? Alternatively, an ETF that covers this space would also be helpful. Thank you.
Regards,
Danny

Q: Two questions regarding the Brookfield family. BIPC has just had a huge run-up. Best to buy now...or wait to see if the market chills with 2Q results? BAM has just dipped, I suspect due to the recent announcement of the $5 billion investment to support retailers. Would you still recommend buying today or are there other similar stocks you would prefer? Thank you.

Q: Hi
I am slowly selling into the rallies and consolidating my portfolio.
Of the two VCIP/VCNS which is safer to hold for 1 to 2 years.
Or should I simply put the money in a Hi Savings a/c or in an ETF like PYF/PSA. I won't need the money to survive for 1 to 2 years. But will need it to "wade into the market" as per your suggestions. Is PYF bit too fancy a place to park? One of the gentleman on BNN mentioned this product recently. I wasn't even aware of this product!
Thanks in advance.

Q: Bought ZRE in a non-registered account just weeks before COVID. Down 33%. Yikes. Would you suggest waiting it out? And if so - looking at your trusty crystal ball - when would you see share prices for this ETF rising to pre-COVID levels (a year...two years)? Alternatively, is it time to cut my (considerable) losses and invest in another sector (tech, consumer cyclical?) which would have a better chance of seeing a faster recovery? Thanks.

Q: I picked some of FCR.UN today at $11.90/share for my TFSA. I am looking at this trust and thinking it is very cheap now - NAV around $18 and they did OK in April with 74% of rents collected plus they have tenants like Walmart, Canadian Tire, Liquor stores - and located in the bigger cities (GTA). Seems like they would do good long term at this price with a nice yield? I am looking at a 5 year hold at minimum.

Q: As far as REITs go, do you think the 5G REITs (American Tower and Crown Castle) are likely to retain all of their business and get paid the rent on their towers? Or is there some question about customers and rent? I'm assuming 5G is relatively immune to the COVID-19 issues that other companies have.
