Q: Hi,
I am wanting exposure to US financials and I am wondering if there is an ETF in Canada that tracks XLF. Of the three listed names could you give me your opinion on how they rank. XLF is one that has Berkshire stock, which I would like some exposure to.
Thanks,
Gwen

Q: There have been a million questions on this stock which has been virtually decimated. The price now is at Sept 2016 levels when revenues were way lower than the current revenues. So can you please list out the pros and cons of this company, possible market penetration, competition, management credibility and their ownership. What would be next catalyst for this company which will drive the price. Do you think there would be some company who would be really interested to buy them. What should one do if they owned this as a 5% position in the portfolio at average price of 65 cents. Thanks
