A Relaxing Summer... 

On behalf of Allan and myself, we hope you are having a relaxing summer.  Certainly with another good month for investors in June, with 79% of funds increasing in value (see morningstar article), things have settled into a more comforting trend to recovery.

Naturally, we continue to monitor markets and your investments, and as our team cycles into our vacation schedules, we also want to wish you the best for your summer plans.

To lighten your email reading load this month, we're simply providing you with a link to ScotiaMcLeod's extensive Investment Portfolio Quarterly: Insightful Perspectives .  In it you will find a whole host of articles on a variety of financial matters.  Our Canadian and US research departments have detailed market commentaries and stock recommendations.  Our portfolio advisory group has comments on the popular income trust market.  In the spirit of the summer, the insurance group has an article about capital gains on cottages.  We trust you will find interesting reading amongst these pages of Insightful Perspectives.

Due to timing of the July fund data, (and the number of emails that come back with vacation messages each year) there will not be an August issue of this newsletter.  We look forward to sending you the next newsletter in September.

Regards, Carl Spiess, Director & Editor

PS. If summer is a better time for you to take a moment to look at your portfolio, please do contact us if you have a question about your accounts.  We welcome your questions at any time regarding your investments.
