Q: I hold both TOU and VET in a taxable account. I would like to sell both to harvest the tax loss and rebuy after 30 days. I would prefer to keep the investment in the sector until repurchase. Can you suggest an appropriate alternative holding.
Thank you

Q: Understanding that volatility goes hand in hand with Shopify, will the quarterly results that came out this morning have a settling effect or will it have the opposite effect? They had a clear revenue beat but are there negatives that will cause LT concerns?

Q: EquityClockOct 24th, 8:07 am
US New Home Sales down 8.9% YTD, weakest performance since 2008.

Given that housing is known (or so they say) to be a predictor of how well the economy is doing.....what are your thoughts on the above news? Should we worry or at least be cautious?

Thank you!

Q: I have $20,000 to invest outside of an RRSP/TSFA/RESP. looking at a 3-5 year timeline. Obviously tax is a consideration so would assume a couple of decent Canadian dividend paying stocks would fit the bill. I'm 20 years from retirement. I would look to buy 1/3 positions now and see if the market bottoms before I dive right in.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts/insight
