Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I need to raise some funds and am looking at selling a position in DIR.UN. I have read the past questions and overall you are fairly positive about it, if one is patient. I probably will not be in this for the long term....though not your usual way to look at stocks, would you be able to do some technical analysis to get some idea whether this will bounce back from its recent downturn, at least a bit, in the next month or two?

Thanks much for your excellent service.

Q: Does the increasing tax rate on capital gains meaningfully affect residential real estate companies with mainly Canadian properties? This might also affect grocery-anchored REIT's since they often build apartments on their properties.

Q: I hold both ZRE and XRE. I selected two ETF because their Top10 holdings looked different enough. ZRE has also a better yield. Do you see a better growth from one of them?
Would you have on-hand a breakdown of their holdings (industrials, residential, retail, office). Could these ETF have private holdings? Thanks a million.

Q: If you held 5 or 6 real estate type positions in a diversified portfolio, and wanted to consolidate a bit, would you be in favour of selling a smallish position in SVI and add to medium sized positions in DIR.UN and/or GRT.UN. If yes, would you add to both or just DIR.UN?

Q: My last question asked about dividends for this company. You answered “ SRU.UN pays a 'distribution' now yielding 8.1%. Keep in mind this is taxed differently than a Canadian dividend, and the tax breakdown can vary yearly. ”. Can you provide some insight on the two points in the last sentence. Thank you.
