Q: For Paul and Scot on trading prices at CIBC. If you are already paying 6.95 a trade at CIBC, sometimes just a phone call to them and they will give you 'relationship' pricing on your total accounts. So as long as the accounts are linked, they will give you the 6.95 per trade on all your accounts. Worth a call.
Cheers

Q: Hi Peter I know that you are not big on mutual funds in general. However, I've been looking at investing in the health care sector and came across CI's Global Health Sciences Corp Cl.
It shows 20% return average over 5 years with the past 2 years at 44 and 59%. Management fees are high at 5%. When the company publishes these figures, have the management fees already been taken off, or should they be subtracted to get actual returns. Would you also please comment on whether this fund is worth considering investing in. Thank you. Your information is always very helpful.

Q: Re Paul's request for recommendations for a discount broker. RBC Direct Investing just recently came out with $9.95 Flat per trade for ALL online investors (no minimum balance,no trade activity required & no expiry date...i.e. it's not a limited time offer).
Even TD/Waterhouse offers a $9.99 Flat fee with total "Household Assets of $50,000 +".
Either of the above would be better (from a fee perspective) than Paul's CIBC fees as the value of all accounts (in TD/Waterhouse's case) count towards the $50,000.

Q: Peter, do you have a preferred discount broker for individuals to use from a fee and service perspective ? I use CIBC w/$9 trades for my bigger account and $29 for the smaller ones. My niece's resp is w/TD and its $29 every trade. It all adds up. Thank you, Paul
