Investment Q&A

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

Q: Today I noticed that once again you recommend transferring Canadian Cos. that pay dividends in $US to the US side of our Trading accounts. I get the rationale but am wondering if it is worth the trouble of exceeding the $US investment limit of US$100k at which it is necessary to report US investments specifically to CRA ? Also it would be interesting to know why the CRA has set this arbitrary limit in the first place ? If you know why ?

John.

Q: I m 73 years old with God willing at least another 10 years left. My Lightspeed is down 70%,$11,000. leaving me with $4,530 in my TFSA. Can you see any timeline for a turn around or should I be sucking it up and putting it in something else? Was looking at LIFE-T as a safety measure but wondering if you have some other suggestions.
Thank you for what you do for us

Q: Pollard bank note is down at 52 week lows. It has come off sharply from its highs, which were probably way too high. Someone last week on Market Call, I think it was Tcascy, said that labor was up because PBL was so busy they had to have people work lots of overtime and because of that they added another shift so next quarters earnings should look much better. Sounds plausible but I have not been able to check if that is true. What does 5i know and what is your opinion of PBl in general? I have started a small position but not sure if I should add if it takes another leg down.

Q: I added Descartes Systems on a pull back a few weeks back. I am surprised, but not concerned,, that it has been so volatile. After I bought a small position it quickly went up more than 10 per cent and this week I am back in the red. Is this type of movement normal for DSG? Has somehting changed at DSG or is just getting pushed up and down because it is part of a number of ETFs? I would like to add to the position but first I would like for 5i to let us members know if something has changed with DSG.
