Investment Q&A

Q: I have held BCE & RCI.b for 15 years as my Telecom Holdings (5% each of my equity portfolio). I just sold my RCI.b shares due to poor performance over the years plus the current squabble just pushed me over the edge.

Do you think Telus would make a suitable replacement for RCI.b in the Telecom space given its diversification in 5G, health, international etc. even though it doesn't own the Toronto Blue Jays or any other sports teams.

Thanks

Q: When does nvda report earnings. Its up big today is their any news.

Q: I am down on these stocks EGLX (-24%), AT (-28%), BRAG (-24%) and PINS (-23%).
These stocks are in a non-registered account.

I have two questions. First, are these stocks worth holding for a turnaround or just take the loss (and take advantage of the tax loss credit) and move on?

Second, if they are worth holding I might do a tax loss sell and buy after 30 days. I am not sure how to time that. Do it now or at the end of the year?

Thank you for your help and advice as always.

Q: Following up on your recent comments on Intel.
With there plans to build 2 new plants in the USA and the Congress in the process of passing a bill that would provide partial funding for these plants, at the current price and PE in single digit, is there not potentially great value at this price over the next few years? Plus a yield at 3% while you wait! I understand they are not the greatest growth play, but they are Intel? What am I missing??

Q: What are your thoughts on this company.

Thank for your great service.

Q: I was hoping to add TFII to my industrial holdings (currently hold CP & CNR) and was waiting for a pullback which doesn't seem to ever arrive.

Do you think at these prices that entering into a full position now (5% of my equity portfolio) of TFII would be silly.

Thanks.

Q: Good morning,

Looking for your insights on the why the rather poor performance since May (down by 30% or so) given inflation concerns and rising material prices.

Thank you.

Q: Good morning 5i
Another question about the superficial loss rule. I would like to buy Magna in a registered account todau and then sell it in my non registered account for a tax loss in thirty days. But, I believe I remember reading somewhere that you say that I would have to hold it for sixty days before selling. If this is right, I can"t understand why. I would appreciate any clarification.\
thanks

Q: Citi continues to be the perennial underachiever in its club. I trimmed down to a half-position months ago. From reading the financial media, I sense that the relatively new CEO should be able to push Citi out from its corner where it sits wearing a dunce-cap. One worries however about the massive costs inevitable in most turnarounds. Do you have an opinion on whether such costs are implicit in Citi’s current low price. Is it worth topping up the position? If no, what is better — ride it out or give up on the poor thing before it makes me poor? I sometimes hold on to securities that are generally disliked because they often turn out to be strong performers later.

Q: Thoughts please on the quarter?

Thx

Q: 5i Team.
I would be interested in your comments and review of the proposed TSX IPO from Northern Genesis Acquisition (SPAC) to support the transaction with Embark. Specific questions I have include:
1) Does the financial transaction; including actual cash injection and share ownership by Northern Genesis of the merger line out to other SPAC deals?
2) Pros/cons of perhaps investing directly in Embark on NYSE with NGAB vs. the proposed TSE listing of NGCS?
Thx. Steve

Q: This question is about REAL...which is held in a TFSA....and is down 66% or 4,700 loonies as of this evening, Oct 25th As it is held in at TFSA,and not being able to claim a capital loss for tax purposes, I wondering what my options are?....and this stems from  REAL being recently sold from the 5iR Growth Portfolio What comes to mind is  #1..like sell now before the real tax loss season begins as it is likely to decline further #2..repurchase as the tax loss selling season ends or when it shows momentum #3...or just bit the bullet and move on Keen to get your take for my particular situation, even though you have moved on, or is there some other option, as I work to recover the loss, which I already know is not the best approach and something I don't do but as it is in the TFSA, I mentally just want to make up any loss on selling it by repurchasing it, crazy as it seems, eh?!.........Tom

Q: This is a large part of my portfolio and I would like to replace it something as close a possible. What might you suggest? Thanks James
