Q: What is the best way to invest in GICS? $200,000 proceeds to be withdrawn over four years at $50,000 annually. So $50,000 in one, two, and three year terms. It looks like Oaken Financial offers the best rates in Alberta. Or is there a better alternative that provides the safety of a GIC?

Thanks,
Hal

Q: I own some GILD and am looking to add to it due to its drop in share price which I can't seem to pinpoint why. Do you believe this is a stock to be adding to, (assuming weighting is still in line). If not, any other recommendations for US value stocks (any sector)
Thanks as always

Q: I noticed that you failed to mention PPY twice when asked for gas stock recommendations. I doubt that it is because you no longer like it. PPY has outperformed while PEY has lagged. Do you think a switch is in order of all or part of my PPY holdings?

Q: I saw your recent response indicating this was ok for income. In looking at this company it appears to be US based (even though it does trade in Toronto)..so if we are using a non-registered account the dividends would not be eligible for the dividend tax credit and the investment would be considered foreign for reporting purposes...perhaps one of your members that has received dividends could confirm this? thanks!
