Q: Almonty seems to be gaining traction with the imminent mine opening in S Korea. It has purchased another mine in the US and is moving its head office to the states. With the price for tungsten doubling in the last year and the demand growing, this appears to be a small cap with lots of upside. Thoughts?

Q: I have full position of both Telus and BCE, both at substantial losses in a margin account. Should I leave them be, reduce, or get out? I do not have much in the way of capital gains this year. If reducing these stocks is a good idea, what would you replace them with in today's very expensive market, not worrying about sector, more about regaining the losses? Could GSY be a replacement or would you consider this much more high risk? Thank you!
Q: What happened in 2024 that drove down ESP for that one year? The number of shares went down and total revenue went up and gross profit went up. Was it some one-time non-cash event? Thanks!
Q: I sold PRL for tax loss reasons and I can buy it back now. However, your opinion on PRL has gone from hot to cold over 2025. Should I even bother putting it back in the portfolio or move on to something else? If something else, what please?

Q: I have taken advantage of tax loss selling and have sold all my Canadian telecommunication stocks. At this time I don't feel any pressure to buy them back after 30 days. However, I would like to have exposure to the telecommunications sector for diversity and for the dividend. Could you recommend some non-Canadian alternatives for a long term hold? Many thanks!!! All the best for the holidays!!!
Q: NFI has announced a Recall against its battery supplier XALT and my guess is that resolution of this issue, which does not seem to have made the front pages(?), along with your own comments on Chinese competition might make a significant difference to NFI prospects. What do you think?
Q: AI related spending/margin concerns have hit the market over past week and CLS has declined to below $400, again.
Any concerns ? Do you still expect the stock to trade to $500 over 12-18 months ?
Is it safe to add now or wait for a further pull back ?
Thanks

Q: Hey everyone, I’m developing a Canadian portfolio with XEI as the core. XEI is heavy into energy and financials so as part of my core it will only be 40 to 50 percent of the entire Canadian portfolio. If you could help me by picking stocks from your three portfolios to round out the portfolio it would be greatly appreciated! It really doesn’t matter how many stocks you pick as it’s $10 a trade and will be in the portfolio for a long time (hopefully). The only consideration is that it pays a dividend.
Q: I am changing providers for my RRIF. My understanding is that the process takes roughly a month, during which time thre account is frozen. I am presently about 65/35 equity to fixed income. Would it be wise to make my portfolio more conservative during this period. Conserving capital would be my main concern
Q: I am considering selling my ARX and TOU and replacing them with a gas stock(s) with better total return potential. Do you have a couple of suggestions that you would consider better alternatives?

Q: Everytime PPL issues a press release the stock drops ! Was the guidance and business update that bad ? Why not just not do the release, and let the stock do its thing.

CI Morningstar Canada Momentum Index ETF (WXM $43.42)
-
Fidelity Canadian Momentum ETF FCCM (FCCM $11.33)
Q: Follow up on a recent question on FCCM and WXM. FCCM has the lower MER. Other differences I see in a simple comparison from my online broker: FCCM is large cap while WXM is mid cap. 5 year returns for WXM is higher, but 3 year, 1 year, and less favor FCCM. Dividend from FCCM is 0.64% paid annually and WXM is 1.26% paid quarterly.
I own WXM in my TFSA (up 55%) along with a selection of stocks from your portfolios. I also own VMO in another account.
How do you view these investment style ETFs (growth, dividend, value, momentum) vs geographic ETFs vs sector ETFs vs others for DIY investors trying to diversify within an account?

Q: Don't have any mineral related stocks in my portfolios. Suggestions for mid to long term hold.
Q: Telus just announced *approval* for an NCIB. How does this affect the thinking on possibility of a dividend cut?
If its free cash flow made it barely sustainable before, won't this additional use of funds make a cut even more likely? (Or will they issue more debt/equity?)

Q: A few questions please on Rogers.
Capex:
What direction does 5i see for Capex spending at Rogers over the next say three years? In addition to paying for the remaining 25% of MLSE, will upgrading their cable segment (or some other business need) require large investment and limit debt reduction?
Monetizing their sports assets:
It all sounds great but .... what risks does 5i see to individual Rogers investors, and how serious does 5i feel those risks are, from the controlling Rogers family negotiating a monetization that benefits only them?
Thank you
Edward
