Investment Q&A

Q: Hi,

I have a line of credit that I borrowed for investing.But prior to that I used it once for personal use.After the funds borrowed were paid, a month later I used it all for investing in a non registered acct.

My question is, can I claim a tax deduction on the interest expense on that money borrowed.I read articles that you can only deduct only if the account was only used for investment purposes.

I know you are not tax experts but your valued opinion is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Q: Hi Team,

Something doesn't add up to me:

1. The USD has been exceptionally strong why are commodities also so strong (I think it might be a supply/supply chain issue)?

2. Wholesale inventories are also very high (stocking up due to supply chain fears)?

I feel that the inflation is artificial and once consumers reach the limit they can afford there will be massive demand destruction and disinflation/deflation as inventories are overstocked.

What is going on?
