Q: Hi 5i,

Longtime suffering- and dollar-cost-average-down holder of Goldmoney (since 2018). The business model ought perform nicely in a market that increasingly embraces gold as an investment/inflation hedge.

So, the questions are: (i) when do figure XAU will get to join the gold party? (ii) has XAU's attractiveness as a handsome takeover target by one of the Big 6 increased since last you commented (~2021)?

Thanks!

Q: Is there an ETF that replicates or comes close to the Beat-The-TSX (BTSX) approach?
I always enjoyed reading David Stanley's and other authors cover the BTSX in the Canadian MoneySaver Magazine.
Thanks
Frank

Q: Sold GSY yesterday. Likely would have stayed the course, but the company's failure to divulge information with regard to Canada Drive in a timely manner tipped me over the edge. So, I have 3% of my portfolio in cash that I would like to reinvest in a Canadian stock with a similar growth/dividend/risk profile. Minimum dividend of 2%, preferably >3%. Canadian stocks already held are: T, X, WSP, TFII, ATZ, SIS, BIPC, BEP, SU, NPI, NTR, PBH, BAM, BN. (US stocks are: GOOG, IHI, COST, NVDA, J, ABBV, MSFT, V, HD and AMZN.) I would appreciate 3 suggestions that would meet my criteria. No industrials or financials please, as I am already overweight. Thank you.

Q: Good Morning,

In my (hopefully) high growth basket of stocks, I would like to do some consolidation. The partnership with TikTok is supposed to be beneficial for Sprout Social, but with the security concerns about TikTok in the recent news, do you think that Sprout will be significantly impacted? If so (or if you no longer like Sprout) in what order might you consider adding to the following: LNTH, APPS, ATZ, INTU, ATD for a 3-year hold? Thanks. Brad

Q: hi, in regards AQN Kentucky power transaction- the end of March is the end of comment period, with presumably a decision on whether or not this transaction will go through shortly after? do you have any sense as to this purchase going ahead, or not going ahead ( and AQN paying a penalty ). further, what do you think the potential upside could be with an announcement of the merger NOT going forward; and conversely what do you think the downside in AQN price could be if the merger does go ahead? cheers, chris

For a growth-oriented TFSA, what would be your top picks (5-10) from this list for a 5+ year hold?

Thank you in advance.

Q: There are a few obvious similarities here in terms of market cap and dividend yield, a few obvious differences in trailing price/earnings and sectors (staples/discretionary). Hoping for your insight into which one you would sooner own for the next two years assuming we are going soon going to enter a recession (or are already in one). Or maybe neither?
