Investment Q&A

Q: I hold PDYPF:US OTC Pink shares, and since 5i / affiliated companies have financial interest also, I was wondering if you know what will happen on Jan 29/2024 when Flutter Entertainment begins trading on the NYSE under the new ticker FLUT?

Q: I just wanted to make sure I understood the CRA attribution rules. Let's say I have $10,000 and it earns interest in a taxable account @ 5% = $500. I have to claim that $500 on my income tax. Now suppose the next year that $500 earns more interest @ 5% = $25. Again, I could claim that $25 on my income tax.

However, my understanding is that this 2nd generation interest (interest on interest of $25) does not need to be claimed by me. Instead, it could be claimed under my wife's income tax. Am I correct?

If I am correct, my plan would be to transfer the interest monies I earned during 2023 from RBF2010 (basically a RBC money market fund currently earning 4.55%) to my wife's account in early 2024.

Please confirm my understanding is correct....thanks...Steve

Q: If the world is going to need all this power to deal with all this Artificial Intelligence that is going to be happening in the coming years, what stocks in your opinion will benefit from this need for electrification?

Q: I have these in a robo managed portfolio and am down 25% on ZFL and 5.4% on ZAG and 8.2% on XSH.
Since it appears interest rates appear to be stabilizing should one hold on for a recovery or try a different strategy or different holdings. Perhaps maybe moving to GIC or HISA EFT or other holdings you may suggest. Or do you think the same recovery may be seen by continuing to hold?
This loss seems to be an issue with those that have to go managed funds and mutuals with a balanced EFT portfolio.
I am going to transfer from so called managed to my own managed EFT's to avoid the fees. Think I can do just as well (or poorly depending on how you look at it) but wondering if I should switch holdings when moving funds to self directed EFT's.
I do have a separate portfolio with individual stocks, so this is basically a portfolio to minimize management and time requirements.

Q: Hi 5I
With respect to PPL could you briefly explain How would one participate in the secondary offering and what are potential ups and downs to be aware of..
thx

Q: Why does this company continue to struggle to maintain momentum? Today the Fed said no rate increases and potentially none for next year with the potential to reduce rates. Most stocks did well after this announcement, yet Trisura goes the opposite direction. How much more patience should we investors give Trisura?

Is there a way to participate in SpaceX for retail investors? Also, with Elon Musk being involved in many companies (space x, twitter, tsla), how will this affect performance of tesla in the long run? I have small weighting in well health, is it good time to buy some more.. much appreciated

Q: I would like your opinion as to what has been driving the price of Energy stocks down ( like CJ who has good fundamentals ) other than the price of oil and gas.
Also why is the price of oil and gas low, when demand seems relatively strong.
