Investment Q&A

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

Q: When I go to the "ask a question" box there is always the start of someone elses question? Please fix.
To my question on TOY; the drop today of nearly 10% has occurred with only 100+/-unit bids & trades this AM at 6-8500 - whereas daily volume is generally around 50-60,000 trades. Just curious & would appreciate your comments. Thank you.

Q: can you please comment on the psychology of people selling their winners like kinaxis, shopify, facebook, google , couche tard , even spinmaster rather than selling their losers to rotate into oil and gas stocks.
i just never have been able to understand that the investor cannot accept taking a loss so they keep their losers hoping to get back to even and sell their winners. dave

Q: My research shows Absolute having a very high debt level, yet it remains one of your favorites and is in the income portfolio. Usually you seem to be more risk averse. What am I missing?
Thanks, len

Q: I have a question about 1714,Hi,I would like to diversify out of Canada with a etf. If I bought VGG in my cash account,would I have to fill out a U.S. Tax form,or would it be included in my Canadian tax return? I file my own taxes and not interested in filing U.S.taxes as well.
Would Vgg be good for income 3-4% and a little growth or could you recommend something.
Thanks,Brad

Q: The safest of financials have rallied a lot (big banks). I assume that investors will start going into the riskier financials. What do you think about buying a 1/2 position in a broker? Gluskin Sheff pays a 5% dividend, however there is that lawsuit overhang, so, I'm tilting towards Canacord Genuity. With the strength in the materials sector, do you expect $CF to start getting more contracts from that industry? I believe that's the core of their business? I could wait a quarter or two, but those stocks move very fast and my error in the past has been buying when everyone likes a stock (2014), rather than the other way around (summer 2016). Trying to change this, but as safely as possible. Thank you!

Q: I currently own Loblaw (L), ADW.A, and ECI in the Consumer sector. I would like to add PBH to give me two holdings in each of Consumer Staples and Consumer Discretionary, but I suspect CTC.A is a'safer' pick. So I am debating between the improved diversification by taking PBH versus the 'safer' choice of CTC.A. Which should I add? I am looking for steady dividend growth with holdings that might hold up better in down/bear markets. Thanks as always.
