Q: Hi. After reading your ETF newsletter, I was considering this ETF as a good way to buy into many of the larger companies that are higher performers on the US market. I already have a full market ETF. What is your opinion?

Q: I would appreciate your current thoughts on WELL and its future prospects.
Q: I have held MRE in my TFSA for the past couple of years and have done "okay".
However, I'm looking at moving into something with more total return potential and am considering either BTO or DPM, as I feel both could do well in a strengthening gold market (which I can foresee over the next year or so).
Which would you lean towards and why?
Thanks, Rick

Q: Understanding that portfolio weights are personal, what weight would YOU be comfortable holding SMCI?
Thanks

Q: In a recent answer comparing the 2 ETFs, VFV & HXS, you said HXS does not pay any distribution. Does that mean it is like DRIP, instead of a dividend payment, your share holdings increase every quarter. Thanks … Cal
Q: Looking for some guidance re considerations to consider in trading TCN at this point. What would your view be on the expected share price movement over the next 3 months. What factors might there be at play to improve the current stock price versus to lower it or finally the likelihood of it stagnating here. So do see it as a sell because current price likely as good as it gets, a hold because upside likely, or, if not too large a portfolio holding, a trim perhaps. Thank you for your views.
Q: Morning Peter and 5i team,
I believe that Capital Losses can carried forward for 3 years, and after that they no long can be used. If that is true, I have a Capital Loss that expires in 2024 and would like to utilize it before I loose it.
I was thinking to selling some winners to get the Capital Gains to go against the Capital Losses and then buying them back. Is there a 30 day limit for Capital Gains as there is for Capital Losses (Tax Selling), and is this this a good strategy?
Thanks
Joe

I know it trades in the US but is closely tied to the oil industry.

Q: Could you comment on the propose take-over by BREIT. The offer looks cheap to me compare with today real book value. If it goes thru, will the new legislation law by the Democrats affect BREIT? Are you expecting outbid?

Q: I plan to add to my gold stock holdings as I have recently sold some bullion. I have concerns about unsafe jurisdictions such as Panama even though I would consider Franco-Navada because of its recent haircut.
May I have a couple of stocks in each of the small, mid and large cap size that are more politically secure and are quality companies?
With appreciation,
Ed

Q: Everyone, I have been a member of 5i for many years and read many questions on ‘what is a good price to buy a stock’. Buy around the moving averages, 20, 50 or 200 day. Or buy in a price range ? Or buy before or after the quarterly report? Or… The stocks I buy are a forever holding, buy the best of the best. If the price is in a high RSI range or above the moving average range, I will split my buying in three or four pieces and over a three of four months. I don’t care if I miss the best buy price because in 10 years the price doesn’t matter! To me, buying the best of the best stock is more important than the price because I want to be a part owner in a company. FYI my average price of AAPL is less than $20, my average price of SHOP CDN is less than $4. My thoughts Clayton

Q: Good morning,
I currently hold VIG ETF in my Non Registered US$ account and VGG in my Non Registered Cdn$ account. Both of these ETFs have the same holdings but the VIG appears to be cheaper in terms of MER and perhaps more tax efficient if held in a RRSP.
Given that both VIG and VGG hold the same holdings and taxation not a consideration, I was thinking of selling the VGG ETF and purchasing some additional VIG ETF.
However, I just stumbled across another ETF (DGRW ETF) that I would appreciate your thoughts on as a potential replacement for VIG ETF. Although a bit more expensive in terms of MER, the annual performance over the last 10 years appears to be much better.
Thank you and I'll await your response.

Q: Greetings:
Your comment to summarize this company was, " A lot to like." I would like your comments concerning it's small size at 310.23 million. I bought some shares after I did my research, but would appreciate your thoughts. Also, what about CEO compensation, at over $1M? Also, a few days ago a member posed a question about where companies in the USA and Canada fit into the small, medium, and large cap categories. Would you please refer me to that question. I tried to retrieve it under miscellaneous, to no avail. Thanks, Ben.
