Q: Everyone, what are your rules for buying or selling stocks. I believe one was not to buy before 10:30 am… others? Clayton

Q: I have looked for but can't find information on the ACB of TOI and LMN if you received the shares as a spin-off from CSU. Would you be able to provide this information?

Appreciate your insight.

Basic Materials (hold 2% LIF), Communications Services (hold 4% BCE), Consumer Cyclical and Consumer Defensive (hold 0%), Healthcare (hold 1% HHL), Industrials (hold 0%), Technology (hold TXF 4%).

Thank you for considering my lengthy question for which I apologize.

Q: Is there any point to submitting a proxy vote on Company’s director appointments and resolutions when one owns such a miniscule number of shares?
If the company is doing satisfactorily well, I typically vote according to recommendations otherwise I may not agree to any of the recommendations as a signal of displeasure. I am not sure either is an appropriate response; perhaps none would be better?

Q: Hi, In my prior question, the breakdown for ZRE is far from 100%. Is "residential" missing? Could be a private question. Thanks.

Thks

Q: NVDA has been dropping for the past month,but still above its 50 Day Moving Average.
I like to see positive momentum before buying a stock.
Would you buy now if you had no position?

Q: What’s a good entry point for Propel?

Q: Just some info re Shane’s asking why prl jumped. When discussing gsy top pick on bnn guest said the only financial exposure needed in Canada was gsy and prl. Given small cap status this side comment might have driven some buying hence a gap up.

Q: What are your thoughts on Redishred at this time?I am down about 15%.Buy/hold/sell?
Are there two or three small/midcaps that you think would be a good buy at this time?

Q: I hold both ZRE and XRE. I selected two ETF because their Top10 holdings looked different enough. ZRE has also a better yield. Do you see a better growth from one of them?
Would you have on-hand a breakdown of their holdings (industrials, residential, retail, office). Could these ETF have private holdings? Thanks a million.

Q: This question or type of question was asked in the last week, but I can't find it. Sorry. My 2 kids each have about $100,000. I manage their money, but would prefer to just manage it through ETF's. Can you please suggest a portfolio of ETF's for reasonable growth (60-70% equities), but balanced with some bonds as well. If you want to cut and paste your answer to the question from a week ago, that would be great. Thanks a lot.

Q: I have been reading questions on PRL as well as the company report. After reading the company profile I don't really understand the business . Though I did glean they lend money . Please explain why I would prefer to use them over my bank ?
Reading from their website Creditfresh partners with banks to provide loans. Banks lend money . What does PRL bring to the table that the bank doesn't offer ? Why would a bank want to partner with them ? Moneykey provides unsecured loans and lines of credit. So does a bank .... What does PRL do to make a better experience ? The same question for Fora which appears to be the same as Moneykey only centred in Canada ?

What I am trying to understand is the business model and why a consumer would use them over a conventional financial institution ..... I've never heard of this business nor have I ever seen them advertise.... Banks do a lot of advertising in an attempt to take business away from each other ..... So I can't figure out how Joe Sixpack would know of their existence and why he might take his credit needs to them ?
Thanks in advance for your always sound advice ..... Garth
