Q: Do you know when CXI reports and what should we look for?
Q: There were a couple comments today referring to a stocks yield based on the initial investment (which could 1 year ago or 10 years ago or more). I have seen this come up here before and on investment chat lines I follow. It seems to me that investment decisions should be based on the current situation (current yield, fundamentals, or whatever) and that yield on initial investment is somewhat meaningless other than as a pleasing way to view a successful investment. What am I missing? Could you comment?
Thank-you

Q: Hello 5i:
knowing this is one of your favourite funds in its category (I now own it), can you please advise something similar in the global space? Or, if possible, two funds/etf's; one which would include the US and one which would not.
thanks

Q: 5i team what would be your thoughts on adding some leveraged funds to my taxable account. The lending rate would be locked in at 2.99% for a year and then if no other promotional offers next year maybe in the 4% range after that. I would be investing the entire amount into ZDV with a dividend of 4.4%.
I can re invest the distributions monthly at no cost with Questrade. And the interest on the loan would be a tax write off.
How much of my portfolio would be the max to leverage (5%-20%) how long term should I be thinking to hold ZDV. Or any other candidates for ETFs?
Thank you!

Q: Hello,
I am considering buying a CAD-listed ETF such as XAW or VXC. Could you advise which account (RRSP, TFSA) I should hold the purchases to avoid or minimize withholding U.S. taxes on any dividends? I recall reading that buying a CAD-listed ETF of US/International stocks would not be sufficient to avoid US withholding taxes on any dividend. I am not sure if this statement is indeed accurate.
Thanks
