Investment Q&A

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

Q: A number of your past favourites have been beaten up over the last few weeks. Is there any that you would sell and move on from? Are there any of these companies that you would be buying or adding to at these levels?

Thanks
Tim

Q: The above stocks make up 80.4% of my holdings. Goog and BN @7% each. The next 5 @ 4% each and the rest at or close to 3% each. For a 10 year horizon, with risk/reward in mind, where would you invest if you had 10% of the portfolio in dry powder- new cash. Any you would sell? Note, I have been trimming CLS, VRT and NBIS to control AI exposure.

Thanks again for all the insights - love the service you provide.

Q: We just opened a TFSA account for my daughter, she is 18.

Money is not needed for a long time. Our aim is to maximize the growth, risk tolerant, tax efficiency and easy to manage.

Would you recommend ETF's or Individual stocks? How many positions? What companies/ETF?

Also, is there a place for bitcoin? If yes what %.

Thanks in advance

Q: Good morning, could you please identify 8 "safer" companies you see at or close to the bottom of their trough at this time that have a dividend (% of dividend does not matter)? For example my guess would be CNR which was at $178 in March 2024 and now at $135 with a yield of 2.63% at this price.
Thx,
Kevin

Q: Based on what happened to companies in the recent pullback are there any of your favourite Canadian growth stocks that provide better investment opportunities today than they did last week? If so, please list them in the order that you would purchase them today.

Q: Good Day,

With the end of the year approaching and the US poking the tarriff bear again (pun... intended?), do you see more selling/profit taking coming in the end of the year?

It seems many names have either been hit by these latest developments, have unsubstantiated short report attacks, or have no news declines. What are some of your favourite names right now that have solid outlooks/execution and some real potential for strong recovery? Say 10 names, mix of Canada and US with attractive entry prices?

Secondly, what would be your main buy targets likely to see tax loss selling? What would be an attractive entry price for them?

No need for megacap names, I'm well represented there.

Thanks!

Q: Is recent question I asked was only partially answered. The question was asked by Tim on Oct 8. Here is your response:
Our top five for a growth investor with a long-term timeframe would be: SHOP ($220 if possible), BN ($91-$93), TRI ($190 to $200), CSU ($3800), TD ($105 to $110) /BNS ($85).

The part of the question not answered was whether these large cap stocks would be suitable for a tfsa. I have been using small caps mostly, but now am wanting to get more conservative. Thanks very much

Q: Hi Team,
I'm considering selling CSU and TRI for capital loss. Do you see these two moving up significantly in the 30 day waiting period? Would you re-buy both after 30 days or move the funds elsewhere?
Thanks

Q: I am under water in these three companies, should I keep holding them or should I sell them.
Read Answer Asked by Dorothy on October 07, 2025
Q: We definitely bought TRI at the recent high and ever since TRI seems to be falling .5-1% per day. My husband wants to sell and cut our losses. I think TRI must be close to its bottom. Has there been a fundamental change, or has the sentiment change just been over last quarter’s miss? Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Q: Good morning.

In an attempt to diversify my stock holdings across different sectors of the economy I was having difficulty in determining to which sector TRI belongs. I’ve seen it referred to as a technology company, a finance company and an industrial company. If you had a gun to your head (please pardon the figure of speech) and had to choose a sector to which TRI belongs which one would you choose?

Many thanks.

Q: I have $10k to invest and I want to buy some stocks (Canadian or CDR) that are underpriced.

I was thinking to invest in TRI, MDA, TFII, TVK and GSY. Maybe Amzn.

For a 3 year hold, how would you rank these stocks? Any other suggestions.
