Investment Q&A

Q: On 20 Sep, you had recommended XRE as an ETF to get some real estate exposure as opposed to some specific stocks about which I had inquired. Approx a week ago a guest on BNN recommended ZRE over XRE so I was wondering why he did. Do you have any idea why he would do so? Thanks and I hope you had a great time in Germany. I did when I was 21 and spent 3 months there gratis of our gov't.

Q: Peter; Do you see any reason for concern on CGI relative to their Obamacare software problem. Thanks.Rod

Q: EIF and now AET.un: "Leaky"

My primary major concern is with EIF's leaks, big drop in share price and then a quick bounce. Anyone having inside information, at one point yesterday, would have at least a 26% one day win off the low while the rest of us took it on the chin and in our pocket books to to speak.

Now today we have what looks like leaks in AET as per another member's question.

When do the powers that be step in and call these companies on the carpet to account for this behaviour?

I am an investor who can deal with volatility BUT NOT when someone else is playing by a different set of rules.

I know somone who emailed EIF but they did not even get the courtesy of a reply.

I would appreciate both your insight and suggestions for handling these kinds of events.

Thank you.
