Q: I'd like to either start a 4% position in TRI or bring the other 4 positions up closer to 5%. Also I could just start a smaller position in TRI and bring the others up a bit, distributing funds across the names. If you could rank order these names, it might help me decide. As is, now MSFT and AMZN are quite small positions. Would any be affected by Tariffs? Just not sure how bullish you are on TRI vs the others. Thank you very much for continued great investment analysis.

Q: Hi Folks,
I would like to add to my holdings in either MSFT or GOOG in my TFSA. May I have your opinion as to which one you would recommend at this time.
Thanks

Q: Update: According to BMO Investorline, item 2) below is not an option. The CRD has a different CUSIP (59516M104) than the NASDAQ listed stock (5949181045). Apparently this is true for almost all CDRs.

Hello,
I have 60 shares of MSFT in a non-registered account, and want to sell 18 shares to raise cash of about $11,300. I have capital losses in the account to offset the gains, so there should be no net tax.
To minimize transaction costs, I am considering three options:

1) Sell MSFT directly, and then use Norbert's Gambit to convert to Cdn$
2) Convert the shares the CDR equivalent, i.e. MSFT.CA and sell that in Cdn$ (not allowed according to BMO)
3) Sell MSFT for USD and then have the bank convert the shares (~1.6% conversion loss)

Which of these do you recommend?
