Q: I appreciate 5i does not follow the us market, but I would appreciate you comment if possible on the etf Gamr.
I am looking at a small position - reason: that gaming is a business as large or larger then the movie industry.
As a little btw - it looks like a large % of the top holdings are Canadian companies
Thanks

Q: I am interested in taking a position in either Algonquin or Northland for both dividends and growth. As they have very similar dividends, which would you prefer for growth over the next two years?
Q: These stocks are making new lows.
They are not in favour right now.
Money is coming out of this sector because packaged foods are not popular etc? Growth stocks are back in favour?
Is this an opportunity?

Q: Although up overall in my balanced portfolio, I'm down close significantly, 10- 20%, in AEM, CLS, KXS, GUD, PKI, SIS. I don't yet own CCL, CAE, EMB, GC, T.
Would you suggest swapping them out now, as year end approaches, or hold and buy the remaining names as funds become available? Or perhaps keep a couple / drop a couple?
Thanks!

Q: Can you please give me PE and forward PE for both companies. How do they differ? Even in a economically sensitive business, wouldn't you assume cjt can still grow with simply the transition to online versus BandM.

Q: I bought NMX in 2015 at .36 and sold it in 2016 for 1.84 then bought it back again at $1.09. It is up 60% since July. With today's surge it has reached 10% of my portfolio. Again. But compared with similar projects it is undervalued (ie Mason LLG.X that is at 2.25 and is no where near starting production). My dilemma is do I hold on or take profit. I am well diversified and going to retire in 60 days.
Thank you for your input!

Q: KXS has been weak for the past while. I can't see anything to explain it. I'm not quite at a full position. Would you be concerned about topping up at this point?
Q: I'm looking to establish a position in the tech sector. I'd prefer something with a reasonable valuation, good growth prospects and insider ownership. I see on BNN today you recommend both CLS and ABT. Are either of those a fit for my criteria or would you suggest something different?
Q: What do you think about KWH, a great Yield but......
