Q: Saw BNN market Call with Ryan on Friday and another good, informative performance. I noticed when they listed 'holdings' for PBH, it showed a positive tick mark for guest position, household member and guest firm/affiliates. Only investment banking showed no involvement. I was surprised to see this as 5I sells itself as conflict free and I have never seen any possible conflict before. Comments please.

thanks

Q: I currently own Gibson Energy in a locked in RRSP at an average price of $25.00.

My time frame is 10+ years to hold before I convert to a Life Income Fund (similar to a RRIF).

Is it better to:

1 - do nothing and collect the current yield (5.28 %) and wait for recovery in share price.
2 - slowly buy new units at current prices and bring my average price down and increase yield.
3 - sell and reinvest in other companies in the energy infrastructure field (KEY, PPL, IPL, ALA)

Thank you for excellent service.

Q: With a time horizon of 10+ years, i'm looking to start a smith-maneuver portfolio to write off some mortgage interest. Could you please recommend 5-10 top picks that would be suitable for this strategy? Or would you recommend possibly an etf like CPD for something like this.

Thanks!

ps, i tried searching for previous questions in the q&a regarding this topic but couldn't find any, do you know which section they would be filed under?

Q: I've been following Eric Nuttall for quite a while, as he seems like the go to guy for Energy Stocks. His Fund is up 38% as of May/31. I'm thinking of buying into his Fund SPR 006 (A), but in addition to the Mer of 2.5%, there is also a Performance Fee of 10% of excess over S&P/TSX Capped Energy Total return Index. This is confusing!

Would you kindly explain exactly what would be my Total Fees would be on an investment of $1,000?

Many Thanks!

Q: Per BNN,it is a frustrated reaction to slow economic despite stimulus in the form oflow interest rate.People are angry over rising inequality & are anti-globalization,anti-immigrant & anti- elite. There are 4 last ditch efforts that could stop Brexit.the referendum is not legal binding & UK parliament(majority of MPs are on remain side) can vote against Brexit.3mil had signed a re-do referendum which will required Parliament to debate.Eu concessions as to immigration.Unlikely.Scotland & N.Ireland will veto decision of Brexit. As of today Parliament still has not triggered the process, Appreciate 5I blog of 6/24.Positive reaction from Asian markets,US futures,Oil & British pound tonight.Hopefully,N American & Euopean markets will be ok tomorrow
