Q: Hi Peter,
I was hoping for you opinion on an Emerging Market ETF (PIE), which I own for broader portfolio diversification. Is there a fundamental reason behind the recent 30 day slide (after hitting 5 year highs in April) or is this likely profit taking? Would you continue to own this, recommend another Emerging Market ETF or get out of the sector altogether?
Many thanks!

Q: Hello 5i, I have a different company I wish to ask about. It is called Zions Bancorporation, ZION on Nasdaq. It took a real beating in the bank sector collapse. I am a strong believer in tactical asset allocation and was considering this stock. I know it will be a gruelling climb back to its "former glory". It has boosted its capital, reduced its preferred shares, and now the common share holders got a boost in dividends. Is this a sign that they are on a semi-straight path upwards?
Thanks very much.

Q: We are overweight in Utility (15%) and underweight in Energy (5.7%). We have done well with ALA - a one bagger as they say. It has made us overweight. I think we should keep ALA & our small position in CU and sell some TRP.
KPI seems to have bottomed out - probably buy it.
Congrats on calling AVO.

Q: I am in my early 60's and still working and I consider myself a conservative investor. My questions...
1) I am currently overwieght in financials (Canadian Banks & Canadian Insurance). I am thinking of selling BMO & RBC and puchasing ESL & CSU. It would increase my overall IT weighting to about 7.5% with none greater than 2%. Does this make sense?
2) My wife bought a little OVTI because her daughter works there. I am thinking of increasing our position (but not too much). It seems like a reasonable company even though no dividend. The stock moved up on Friday. Any thoughts?
3) My broker used to tell me that insurance companies do better when interest rates are higher. Do you agree?

Q: Peter and Team, first of all this is an amazing service and I thank you. My question concerns Alpha Pro Tech (APT) which is a Canadian company listed in the States. I am seriously thinking of making an investment in this company. Your thoughts would be most welcome.
Q: PPL :Pipelines, Utilities and REIT's declined sharply last week, presumably due to fear of rising interest rates, sooner than later. It all started after recent US Fed comments. After remarkable gains in these sectors over past few years, do you think, we could see a major correction in these sectors in near term? Is it prudent to cut back these positions now? Also, which pipeline stocks are most vulnerable? Thanks for your valuable insight.
Q: I'm thinking of taking a position in INA, looks like good this are on the horizon, they will have decent cash flow and production growth in the very near future. Do you know this company and if so what are your thoughts, is it a buy at these level?
Thanks
