Q: I would like to do some tax loss selling and was wondering if you might be able to rank RBLX, SQ, TOY, GH, OVV, and COW in order from those with the least potential to recover over the next year, to the most potential. I appreciated your help last year on the same topic. If I were to sell them all, are there any you would consider buying back after 30 days? Thanks.

Q: HI folks
Sadly, I am down on all of these somewhere between 60 to 95%!!! They mostly but not all started out as somewhat small positions 2 to 4 years ago! I have time to wait longer but: 1)are there any that are absolute failures and therefore should be sold. 2) Would you please rate the selIs from 1 to 10 ..10 being the absolute SELL. 3)How many years should I give these? (tough to answer but just a guess). I will not get much at all for any of them! Please take as many credits as you see fit.
Much Thanks and happy Family weekend

Q: I was wondering if you knew much about FedNow. Online it says it will not replace apps like Venmo or Cash App, as it will depend on if your bank and the bank you are sending to opt in. But why would a bank not opt in? It sounds like many banks are already gearing up to implement it this summer. Once fully implemented at US banks, will it be similar to Canadian e-transfers? Why would customers not use it for P2P payments, such as splitting a tab, if it is free, just we we do here in Canada? Thanks.

Q: Hello, I am down 25%+ on all of these companies and looking to do some tax loss selling prior to yearend. Can you order these companies in terms of what you would sell first? Would you rank these companies as Sells or Holds (or even Buys)? I am a long term investor, not a trader, so I'm hesitant to sell only to rebuy later, or to average down. I have some ability to do a tax loss carry back to recoup some of my losses from prior years (plus minimize my 2023 taxes).

Q: Hello Peter,
Would the fintech stocks be classified under technology stocks similar to Amazon, Google, etc or are they seen as more financial ? if there is a rotation out of tech, would the fintechs be hit accordingly? Thanks very much

Q: Hi 5i; I would like your assessment of Fiserv Inc. (FI). It has started to trend up off the lows of 2022 and I am back into positive territory but not certain this is still one to hold. I am interested in the outlook for this stock individually and whether you see it in the top quartile performer in a crowded and competitive space – electronic payments.

I’d also appreciate your comment on the Goodwill number on Sept 30th balance sheet; seems excessive?

Thanks very much.
