Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: With Airbnb's YoY growth on a downward trajectory, without the pandemic, how does this ipo look?

Also can you explain how it is not profitable yet? I find it hard to imagine an aggregator offering to rent a room in your house can have such high costs when it has so little obvious capital expenditures.

Thank you

Q: I would like to use one or more of these companies for tax loss selling. Which two companies do you think are the best candidates to sell. Portfolio diversification will not be affected to any large degree by selling any of these stocks. Thanks.

Q: I own GAMESYS GROUP PLC REGISTERED in my TFSA and to be honest, I'm not sure how I ended up with it. It has done quite well but I'm thinking I should sell it as I have no real understanding of the company I'm not sure how to even sell the position (OTC) I think). Thoughts?

Q: Recently, a number of firms have brought out All-in-One ETFs, such as VEQT. If an investor wishes to be 100% invested, and diversified globally, then this ETF offers the advantage of rebalancing to the ETF's geographic weightings. These All-in-One ETFs are overweight Canada given global market capitalizations.

In contrast, there are ETFs offering similar low fees which represent the market capitalization of all global equities, such as XWD or VXC (w/o Canada). These ETFs are effectively rebalancing to reflect the global market capitalizations.

For a long-term hold, which investment do you feel will do better? Is an investor better off choosing say VEQT, or VXC? These two ETFs have similar ETFs. Is there a better alternative which you would recommend?

Your insights are much appreciated and valued. Thank-you.
