Q: A few questions about FXM and WXM, which are Morningstar's ETFs that follow a momentum and value style respectively. These have spectacular >20 year 'theoretical' ie. backtested records. Is this something that will likely beat the TSX in the future or are there usually problems with backtested mechanical strategies going forwards? Do they trade at a premium to NAV and where do I find their NAV figure? Thanks.

Q: should i buy lightstream resources (LTS.TO). It is down due to rumor about
the possible reduction of monthly dividend. Some believe the dividend cut is already priced into the stock price. A long term buyer (2 years) would be rewarded at this entry level ($6.81). Your thoughts please.

Q: Hello all:
The Canadian portion of my portfolio holds 18 stocks. Of those 18 stocks I hold BCE, RCI.B and T. I am thinking of selling one of those and buying VRX to increase my diversification. My question is, 1. is this a good idea, 2. which telecom should I sell, and 3. Is VRX a good choice, is it too late to get in now. Thanks.
PS I just renewed my subscription. Thanks for a great service.

Q: JPM is currently my only direct US investment held within my RRSP, I am currently sitting at about a 25% gain. What is your outlook for this stock considering their ongoing and seemingly never ending legal issues? Has all this turmoil been priced in already or should I consider moving on. Can you recommend something within the Canadian Financial Sector as an alternative?

Q: Peter, if I have 2M$ in the stock market all with, for example Scotia I-trade, would it make sense or be advantageous to move half of those equities to another stable/secure discount trading house such as TD so as to be able to get CIPF coverage on all of it, and to not have all my eggs held in one basket? Would the CIPF coverage cover 2M$ in that instance, if I spit it up?

Q: Portfolio Management - I have held both HCG and ATD.B for a long time, so that they have become a large percentage of my portfolio. I don't like selling winners, but I recognize that there is risk i everything. Even a great stock can get side-swiped by events. How large a percentage would you hold before trimming the stock of a high quality company?
Thanks,
Hans
