Q: Maybe the Globe's listings are simply inaccurate. But it shows HTA as doing much less poorly than HTAE, which basically only invested in HTA and has a higher monthly dividend.

What do you think of this ETF and its risk factors? Esp as compares with HTA.

Q: Hi, Northview Fund (NHF.UN) is doing a recapitalization transaction where the portfolio is being acquired and becoming a $2.7 billion tradional multi family REIT. The deemed transaction price is $15.06 and the stock has been drifting lower, I get that this can be sector specific, but this is not a well followed company, I am wondering if am I missing something on this transaction and why would this be drifting to the $7's. There is a share consolidation coming but I believe it is post transaction.

Q: My long-term interest in VZ was partially founded on it's extremely low correlation with almost every other equity and fixed income category. I am "off" VZ due its recent issues and am curious as to whether you are aware of any similarly low correlation, reliably high income alternatives?

Q: Recently I see articles about “alternative” investments as a means of diversifying the portfolio. They are often written by fund managers suggesting their product.
1. What are considered alternative investments?
2. How does the individual investor access them directly?
3. Does adding them to a portfolio mix make a more diversified portfolio ie: add stability?
Thanks as usual.
