Q: Hi,
Please take as many credits as you feel fit. Our portfolio is a hot mess. We’ve basically been ignoring this downturn for the past 6 months knowing we are are in for the long term. Retirement is 7-10 years out. The above holdings have fallen below a 1% weight in our portfolio. We have limited cash to deploy. Which of these would you add to? In what order? Any you would not add to and just hope that time allows for recovery? Any if these you would sell? For the ones that could be added too. Would you just buy now or put some stink bids in given the crazy volatility in markets? Any additional input is welcome.
Thanks so much,
Kerri

Q: Good Morning,

Thank you for the ongoing sage commentary.

Would you mind providing 3-4 dividend stocks with growth potential that are cheap at the moment?

Thank you

Q: I have started travelling again and noticed that Air Canada flights are essentially full. I looked at a 3 year chart for the stock share price and it is down from about $50 to $18, obviously due to the pandemic. I noticed that you provided growth data in response to a question where the growth next year is expected to be 128%. This sounded good.

I used your symbol look-up tool to view the AC’s profile and compared it to Delta Airlines (DAL). AC has 359M shares out compared to DAL’s 641M. AC’s EPS and PB is -6.9 and 45.1 whereas DAL is +0.12 and 8.0. DAL is rebounded a bit more than AC but why was AC at $50/share anyway.

It seems to me AC is not managed well and probably has a lot of debt but your profile screen does not give me that info.

It seems DAL is much more attractive as an investment but I am just looking at very simple metrics. What are your thoughts, please?

Q: Hello Peter and Team,

Our question today is about CDR's in TFSA accounts and potential tax benefits. If you were to buy Goog, AMZN, and NVDA today, what would be the recommended method?
CDN TFSA: buy CDR's
Open a US TFSA and purchase the stock in US funds (one-time conversion costs would occur)
Purchase the stock in the native currency in the CDN TFSA

Do CDR's reduce exposure to the taxman if death occurs instead of having US domiciled stocks in a TFSA or RRSP or RRIF?

Thank you.

Cheers,
Debbie and Jerry

for RRSP's
