Q: I purchased SMG at US $105.10 early May 2022 and it has fallen off a cliff recently. I expected to see a short term 10% increase ... then I would sell my position.
I think this is a good company and and has a reasonable dividend but what is your outlook ...... should I continue to hold ..... or sell an buy Nutrien.
Thanks DAN

Q: any comments on class action? Being down 78% should i simply join in to try to recoup part of the loss. I realize you, partners etc... still own shares but trust your opinion.
thanks

Q: Assuming the deal happens and 1/2 value is paid in shares of T does that mean 1/2 the ACB of my LWRK shares is now attributable to the new shares of T that I now hold?

Q: It has been said that one should expect 1/3 of your stock selections to meet your expectations, 1/3 to exceed and 1/3 to fail. It's been quite a while since I have experienced the last one....real believer in asset allocation and position size.

I bought ADW.A in my TFSA at $10, then $9 then $8 building up a position. It is now at $6. Fortunately it is a small position, which was bought thinking it looked ripe for a reasonably quick rebound. Ummm....not! Also in my TFSA is PLC, XIT and NNRG.

In the spirit of "water the flowers and pull the weeds", I am thinking of flushing the wine and redeploying the proceeds....adding to existing positions in NNRG (sooner) and XIT (later). As both NNRG and XIT skyrocketed I took partial profits, so I see this as a win-win, adding back in at lower prices and working towards an improved asset allocation.

Thoughts?
Thanks...Steve

Q: Wonder if you could update your thoughts on Andrew Peller. Am a long-time shareholder (>25y). Company is profitable, good yield (~4.3%), great properties (and all 4 properties I visited in Ontario this past weekend were quite busy). Why do you think it's trading near 52-week low (and near 7-yr low)? Usually, alcohol-related companies tend to weather recessions (and recession worries) well, but this does not appear to be the case with ADWa/ADWb. Thoughts?

In May, 5i sold 1% of ZRE from the income portfolio. Is there a specific reason for this sale ? ZRE dropped significantly in the few months. Is the sale linked to the drop in value ? Do you still recommend purchasing ZRE ?

Thanks!

Q: I own above ETF’s in a non taxable accounts for the purpose of relative stability and diversification. I am looking now for the next 12 to 18 months and thinking of concentrating on the Canadian market (VDY) for better return in the medium term.

Q: Hi There,
Can you suggest a method where one can estimate the realtime Equity Risk Premium for US market and Canadian Market using ETF's. Can you also give a guide as to what values may cause investors to shift between the risky asset and the safe asset for US and Canadian markets. Thanks

Q: Not the greatest idea to have a Reit IPO these days!. Well below expected and real IPO prices. At least dividend has been announced. Besides DRR being new and still quite small, do you see any problem with it ? Any new info ? Merci.
