Q: Please provide an update on POOL.

I am holding it at a 25 % loss in my TFSA.
What are its prospects? Do you still like it?

I understand you love CROX currently, of
Which I currently own a 1/2 position.

Would it make sense to sell POOL, take a loss (with no possibility of harvesting the loss to offset other gains) and consolidate it into CROX?

Please advise.
Thank you.

Q: I would like to get exposure to the semiconductor industry but am reluctant to buy NVDA because of its recent runup. I am considering SMH or SOXX. Do you have a better idea or would it be wise to stay on the sidelines for a while? This may not be relevant but I do hold Fortinet. Your thoughts and comments would be appreciated. Thank You.

Q: Recently ran into some $. Much to my surprise. Was thinking about putting it into IEP. Leaving it and not looking at it for 10 years. Is this a binary bet on high risk/high reward opportunity. How would the dividend be taxed in a non registered account? Over time I may look to move it to TFSA if it bolds well. Thoughts?

Q: Hi 5i team. Can you please provide your current opinion on BIG ? It is currently take an historical correction.

Is there a serious risk that this company goes to bankruptcy ?
Is the dividend sustainable ?
Is the current correction is accurate or exaggerated ?, amplified by the current market ?


Thank you,

Q: 1.We have a bit of a debate going on regarding the merits of shorting stocks and doing so when they have the kind of pop such as Nvda had last week.

If someone shorted $10,000 of Nvda at the close of business last Friday, how much would be lost as of the close of business today ( Thursday)?


2. AVGO Same type of situation: buy AVGO end of business yesterday….and loss as of today ( Friday ) close ?

Thanks.

How would that person minimize his loss ( other than by NOT shorting it in the first place )?


Thanks

Q: Hi team,

Grateful for your views onTarget Hospitality (th-q).

Would you buy it for strong growth in the next 2-3 years ? Or which other stock would you prefer now for strong growth in the same period, in order of preference, for a TFSA ?

Thank you for your good attention,

Q: Can you please comment on CAE latest earnings released today. Was there anything of particular interest to note from the call the call (either good or bad)? What is your view of this company after this latest report (buy/add, hold, sell, or trim like you did with model portfolio)? Are there other names in Canada or in the USA you prefer and would recommend over CAE?

Q: I am looking for a couple of US dividend-paying companies that provide decent yields for retirement income. Several of the companies that you have suggested are providing growing dividends and some equity growth but the yields are low. I am currently looking at AMGN, BX and EXR. I am leaning towards BX as I think property could be poised for growth but I am concerned that the dividend seems to jump around. Were special dividends paid in the past few years or has the payout been negatively affected by declining rental income?

Which of the three would you prefer given the desire for increased income, stability of income, future dividend growth and some equity growth? (or are there other suggestion you may have)

Appreciate your insight.
