Q: Hi guys. First, thank you for the great advice and it is a pleasure to belong to 5i Research. Based on percentage, how much US or foreign stock/ETFs can I have in my TFSA without having tax implications when I sell? Or, are there no tax implications because the investments are in a TFSA? Thanks.

Q: I hold 500 shares of a preferred stock in a RRIF but am confused about the best course of action. The MANULIFE FIN 4.2%-1 S3 PF were purchased at average cost of $24.10 but have not traded above $20 since January 2015, and have been under $15 since December 2018, but recently are trending up. Every 5 years (coming in June 2021) MFC could redeem at $25 or provide option to convert to another series. With income of about $272 annually on shares now worth only about $7,775 that works out to a return of about 3.5%. So if I sold at current prices I'd need to replace with something with same yield. Your thoughts?

Q: When news comes out about a company, like it has for Workhorse yesterday, "The investigation focuses on whether the Company and certain of its officers and/or directors have engaged in securities fraud or other unlawful business practices." and the stock seems to be reacting to this, what are your recommendations and what other things should be considered? Thanks,

Q: I have held TFII for a short period of time about 2 1/2 years, last year I trimmed when I got over 6 %. With the recent runup I left it to run to 7% and did nothing as I am unsure of the valuation with such a large aquistion of UPS and maybe it would come back some which it did. I wanted to see a quarter or two after the aquistion before I trimmed or not. On the 22nd you made a comment about TFII being cheap could you add some color to that comment as I am struggling with a valuation post UPS takeover. Thanks
