Investment Q&A

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

Q: Given the state of the markets, what would some of your current favorite names be to add to a new RESP account for my son? I've set aside $10k to take a few stock positions early on (anticipated long term hold as he's a newborn) and then am thinking going forward I'll devote annual contributions to a more passive approach (boarder market ETFs, etc.).

With a smaller account like this diversification decisions seem a little more difficult. Any general suggestions on RESP considerations would also be appreciated.

Thanks for the great service!

Q: I am a long-term investor. I am looking for 5i's favourite REIT etfs (cost/liquidity, etc.). Please provide one or two GROWTH REITS (lower monthly yield) and one or two HIGH-INCOME REITS (highest monthly yield with growth as a secondary focus). This would be for both a non-registered account and a TFSA in $CAD currency (replication is fine). US/CAN or Global REITS. Whatever the preference.

Please also comment on IDR.TO (Middlefield Indexplus Reit), and whether this fits in some manner to the above categories.

Much appreciated!

Q: I know you are not tax experts, so please disregard this question if it falls too far outside your field. I only venture it because you are so generous in answering all sorts of questions.

My wife and I each have a margin account. We are retired and take money from a rif each year. Dividends, capital gains and pensions are split at tax time.

The question is whether we are able to shift money back and forth between our accounts without tax consequences? Also, would it be possible to combine the two accounts into a joint margin account without tax consequences
Thanks as always for the great service

Q: I am thinking of selling my long term holding in KXS (held in RRSP) in favour of NOW. I acknowledge the obvious difference in size and risk. I would like to continue to position in a consistent performer with visible earnings growth in the cloud-based enterprise SAAS space. The recent poor subscription guidance, significantly lower margin expectations and the “cockroach theory” has made me contemplate the change out of KXS. NOW would appear to be an emerging platform company with a much larger TAM than KXS. Would you be ok with this considering my objective of consistency or would this be an over-reaction on my part as KXS has been good to me (thanks to 5i)?
