Q: What are your views on TD earnings and what lies ahead? Stock performance is very disappointing. How long do you think it will take for TD to surface and start moving upwards. Looking for a view over the next 3 - 12 months or will it take longer than this? I guess I should ask how much lower you think it might go? When should buyers start buying?

Q: I am underwhelmed with my health sector holdings - ABBV and IHI - both of which have been recently underperforming the market. I have held each for several years in a cash account and they are up 20% and 50%, respectively. I would appreciate your go forward recommendation on both, balancing future prospects, tax consequences and alternative (i.e. faster growing) investments in this sector. Hold or sell? And if sell, replace with what? Thank you.

Q: Greetings again 5i Team,
I recently asked a question concerning the content of four 'Dream' TFSA portfolios. However, I had intended that the four portfolios contain an increasing number of securities (four, six, eight and ten) and not an increasing period for the securities to be held.
Although I found the answer to be informative, can you take another crack at my question with the # of securities as the defining factor.

Thank you again for this terrific service.

Q: What would your four 'Dream' TFSA portfolios (all Cdn companies) be comprised of today at: four, six, eight and ten securities respectively?

Sector diversification not necessary for my question and they need not be dividend paying securities either.

Q: June 25th - Inclusion rates go up.
Do you think that there might be some profit taking from now up to that date?
Maybe the number of people making a profit >$250K on selling shares isn't enough to nudge the market.
Cheers

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,

What do you think about the Buffer ETFs offered by BMO? Are they suitable for a retired investor who wants some downside protection and is comfortable with limited returns in a strong market scenario? Are their AUMs adequate to consider a purchase? BMO has three such ETFs: ZAPR, ZJAN, and ZOCT. Or are there other 'better' ETFs that have lower MERs, as the three cited have rather hefty MERs?

Thanks as always for your insight.
