Q: Hi there,

Just a follow up to my previous question, where do you see the USD going in 2020 against the CAD? In the answer you had provided to me, you had suggested VSP for S&P500 exposure (as opposed to VFV). Does this imply you see the CAD strengthening against the USD in 2020?

Thanks!

Q: XIT: We have a very large portfolio made up in RRSP, TFSA, & Non -Registered Accounts (biggest holdings). My investment style over many , many years has been to buy large cap "dividend growing" stocks which have served us incredibly well. Because technology stocks usually trade a high P.E. multiples, most are not dividend growers; but, most of all, the arena can change on a dime - just look at all the tech stocks that have gone bust over the last 20 years or so. In any case, I was thinking of buying XIT to add to our "dividend growers". I already own a small holding in my USD account of IGM.

Q: Happy New Year and welcome to a new decade :)
I plan to take this year's TFSA contribution and divide it equally between ARE, REAL & XBC. The goal is growth. Any dire warnings before I proceed? Thank you.

Q: I note that while you and others have highlighted pressures on NFI (pre mid Dec) the news flow of orders appears to have improved of late and there has been a concurrent effort by NFI to maintain a professional approach to their business prospects. I guess the question is does the hesitancy with respect to their prospects, and particularly their share price, still apply and are the new orders significant or already factored in. Thanks.

Q: I need to invest the new $6000 TFSA contribution for my 24-year old son. He won't need to touch the money for a long time. What would be your suggestion for this investment , given that his other holdings are already mainly growth oriented (SHOP, CSU, SIS, PHO, XIC and ZLB)?
