Q: Does Horizons or similar company have a tax deferred ETF that would be similar to VGG. I understand HXS does for US exposure, though I am interested in one that focuses on dividends which are only taxed as capital gains once the stock is sold. Thank you for your service.

Q: Do you see any bargains in mid-large cap US company. This is for my mother who's 60 and will need to start using her money in 10 years. No tech names (already 20%), maybe more in finance, healthcare, consumers disc. or industrials.
I was thinking of Visa/ MasterCard as an example.
She sold 20% of her portfolio this summer to have cash on hands for a pullback, would you start using it ?

Q: SHOP and SQ seem to have a lot of features in common wrt their digital commerce platforms.
Do you have a preference for one over the other or should one simply hedge the situation by holding equal positions in both?
And also, are there any competitors out there that could significantly interfere with their high growth rates.
Thanks - James.

Q: Hi team,
I like SQ and I know it is one of your favourites. It had a big sell-off, with all other tech, but now has the CFO leaving. I always liked Sarah Friar as I thought she was a real driving power behind SQ. To me, she is not just your everyday CFO. She knew what to say to the markets. For example, she would tone down Dorsey when he went too far over the top on crypto transactions earlier the year. As you know, Dorsey is also CEO of TWTR and splits his time half and half between SQ and TWTR. The market was not overly concerned with this arrangement as long as Friar was there for SQ. With a weaker management team now and given the TWTR onus also on Dorsey, does this temper your outlook for SQ?
Thanks again,
dave
