Q: I intend to use as many losing companies such as above POU, RY, TOU and MG (presently underwater) against a significant amount of capital gains to reduce my taxes for 2023. I will probably buy them back in the new year. What is wrong with this approach? Please explain.
Thank you.

Q: Hi Folks,

My RRSP portfolio consists of the above stocks all with relatively the same weighing. Can you suggest 5 names or so, (CDN and U.S) that I take a look at that would complement the above? I am looking for a company that would be a good buy today for both income and capital appreciation - total return.
Thanks

Q: Hello 5i,
I am considering to let go of Ford and Magna as I don't see an EV catalyst for Ford and I am not sure about Magna since the Apple car rumour has disappeared !!!!
If I was to sell both, I like to add to one of the other tech companies ( listed above). On an evaluation basis which one is cheaper and that it has the forward momentum to excel in terms of their existing products and AI?
Thanks
Carlo

Q: My Consumer Descretionary % is a bit low.

1. I'm a little gun shy buying this sector right now due to economy slowing in the face of higher interest rates. It seems the consumer may be struggling here for awhile. Would you bump up a low sector waiting right now or just wait 6-12 months?

2. How would you currently rank the following watchlist for capital appreciation over the next year+? Are there some you would not really consider Consumer Descretionary - seems to be quite a range of business.


SHOP, QSR, ATZ, DOO, TSLA, MG, AMZN, ULTA, CELH, BKNG, GLBE, CROX.

Q: What do you think of the latest quarterly earnings for Martinrea ?
I used your Interactive Chart feature to compare the % share price increase over time of Martinrea and Magna - for 10 to 20 years Magna is the clear winner , but Martinrea is far better over the last 3 years . Do you think this better performance will continue over the next 2-3 years , or is a switch to Magna appropriate ?
