Q: Good Morning,
I rode through the October down swing and recovered. Now, fully invested and diversified, I am getting nervous that this drop isn't going to recover soon.
I bought into the Canadian ETF for Japan, after listening to Bill Carrigan at the 5i event in Toronto. Otherwise, most of my portfolio is paying dividends and in the 5i portfolio with the exception of MU, GILD and PHM.
Do you still believe the economic data coming out of the US is generally positive?
Any advice or comments you have would be very much appreciated by me and probably the other nervous Nellie's out there. I am trying to be an investor rather than a trader, Peter, but watching money disappear so quickly over a few days is tricky.

Q: My question is about the best method of "washing" US securities inside an RRSP to avoid the costs of currency exchange on the trades. What method would you recommend? And if there was going to be a delay between sell and purchase settlement dates, what US money market fund would you recommend for short term holding of US dollars inside an RRSP? Thanks!

Q: I'm looking at including international positions through a few ETFs. Just wondering what the difference would be if I, for example, bought a European ETF (currency unhedged) that is listed on the TSX in my Canadian account versus buying the same ETF but trading in the US and buying it in my US account. Can't seem to wrap my mind around the currency implications of the options and would appreciate any thoughts you could provide. Thanks.

Q: Hi Folks,

It's my view that the current retracement of canadian oil stocks to their annual low's is a possible technical test of the bottom of these stocks. Do you agree? It seems everyone and his mother cant believe this is the bottom for oil stocks and that another leg down is inevitable. The same pundits in 08-09 seemed to be wrapped in the same fear that Canadian banks were insolvent. As we know, they weren't even close.

Q: Hello Team, I have held Peyto for several years. With natural gas storage level very near the 5 year average despite a very cold winter, I am concerned that the current high gas production environment is going to knock gas prices to very low figures in the coming months. Would you please provide your thoughts on holding Peyto in today's natural gas environment.
Thanks,
Richard

Q: I've owned CPG for 3+ years and I've been fine with collecting the dividend despite the massive volatility. I've held it in the past knowing there are better energy names out there. Today, I am thinking it is a good idea to get out of it in favour of cash or some other 5i portfolio type stock like BIN or something you'd recommend. I prefer to get something with yield so I am thinking HCG or BIN or CCL.B or something like those.

My chief concern with energy in general is that the supply situation (looking at all the charts) looks horrible. I think CPG is discounting oil prices that are too optimistic. My concern with CPG is I know I can do better in terms of quality and I am thinking grown men could be crying over this one in the next while.

CPG is 2.5% of the portfolio. Other energy related holdings are PEY - 4.4%, TOU - 3.3%, AEI - 1.6%, and BAD - 3.9%. Rest of the portfolio is pretty close to 5i model portfolio.
