Investment Q&A

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

Q: Whitecap has crept up to 5.5% position in my portfolio and is now my 3rd biggest position. This is in part due to the combing with Veren.

I believe they have a good management team and balance sheet is fairly decent.

The dividend is quite nice as well.

If I think there is room to move is it too risky letting this run to 7% or is it time to rebalance and take a bit off the table.

If you can't give personal advice;)

Hypothetically if you had a 5.5% position in WCP would you let it run and monitor or trim it up a bit;)

Thanks, Colin.

What are your thoughts on HIVE and its AI / high-performance computing business. Do they have any potential in developing that segment knowing the high amount of funding required to be competitive.
Thank you.

Q: Hello,
From what i gather, VUN has similar performance to SPY except that it is in cdn dollars. Since SPY has greater exposure to tech companies, i was wondering if it is best to diversify slightly by putting one third in VUN (total us market), XQLT (ishares msci usa quality ) and VGG (US dividend appreciation ) or do you think it is best to just have one VUN , or VGG or XQLT. I am looking for an etf that is not too heavily weighted on technology. Much appreciated.

Thanks for such a great service.

Q: Good morning,

I am thinking of taking a capital loss on TOU, and with the proceeds buy WCP for 30+days. Plan is to take 2 months of the monthly dividend of WCP, and then buy TOU back in early September ahead of the $0.50 ex-dividend date. I know I will miss the TOU $0.35 dividend next month with this strategy, but from purely a dividend payout strategy, it is accretive.

Anything I am missing with this strategy?

Thx as always.

Q: Re: Stablecoin

If this has been answered elsewhere, please provide a link for me --- as I couldn't seem to find an answer in the archives.

What in the world is stablecoin?

Like Vinnie Barbarino, "I'm so confused".... !

and have absolutely no confidence in how to invest in it, if I don't know what it is and how it works.

Treat this as a private, or public question, as you wish, if you think others might benefit from the answer.

Thank you!
