Q: Hello, Two months ago, I wrote to inquire about why the online stock return calculator on Stock Channel Canada was no longer working and hoped you could refer me to a new one that I might not know about. Now, after a few months, I have found that the site is back up and running. I just wanted to let you know. Thank you for your years of wonderful work.

Thank you.

Q: Hi, I am considering buying the dip into some covered-call tech funds. I was looking at a roughly equal investment in ZWT and QQCL. I'm aware of the limited upside potential of these funds but am buying for income with some capital gain (ZWT). I'd appreciate your thoughts on the possible pitfalls inherent in these CC funds. Thanks.

Q: I am holding a lot of cash in anticipation of buying a condo in the next 6 months. My main concern is capital preservation. What is safer: short term bonds or HISAs? Assuming a significant decrease in interest rates during the next 6-8 months, would short term bonds offer a greater total return than HISAs?
Thanks!

Q: I have these bond funds: PGF510, CVC, ZAG, XLB, along with mostly GIC's in my fixed income side of portfolio. Do these Bond funds pay interest the same as the GIC's or do they pay Dividends so I would get the Dividend Tax credit? All are in my margin account. Would any of these be worth adding to now that they have gone up somewhat? Thanks so much!

Q: Although I realize you are not tax experts, I have a general question about holding ETF’s in an an open account. My understanding is that Canadian-listed ETF’s are exempt from the T1135 filing. So I believe HXDM, even though an International ETF, could be held in a non-registered account without any filing requirement. Is my assumption correct?

On the other hand, any ETF could be held within an RRSP without filing (eg. VWO).
