Investment Q&A

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

Q: Good afternoon,
I'm setting up a TFSA for my daughter who turns 18 next week. I plan on contributing the max $5500 at that time, and would like your suggestion on what to purchase. Ideally, I'd like this money to be available to her in 4-5 years for a downpayment on a house, so safety is important as well as equity appreciation (without a crazy amount of risk).
Thanks!
By the way, I'll likely be contributing $5500 each year for the first 4-5 years.

Q: Hi Team, Just wondering if it would be possible for you to put the full name of the company in instead of just the stock symbol if the person asking the question hasn't done so. When one does not know the market too well it takes a lot of time to look them all up but I assume you already know most of them. Thank you so much for all your information

Q: Hi, Any idea why the US insurance co, AET, is way down after a positive earnings report? I'm now 4% down. It's about 5% of my portfolio, intended as a safe pick to balance growth stocks. I'm about 50% growth and 50% blue chip dividend stocks overall.

As a long term investor should I sell or hold on? Thanks

Q: VALE.US
Do you have any thoughts on VALE.US? It's up only 6% in a year, but has a nice dividend. Any thoughts on upside or is it time to sell? Thanks!

Q: What is your opinion on using ETFs like CRQ, CIE and CLU which consider fundamental factors like cash dividends, free cash flow and sales but at a higher MER as opposed to the core low ETFs like XIC, XEF and XUS. On a long term basis, they seem to be outperforming the main indexes and normal ETFs and thus justify the higher MER.

Q: I own SGY now and would like to add more. Is now a good time or wait for a pullback. Also, is this the same management at surge since 1998. SGY was quite a bit higher in 2006 and also in 2012. Why the downfall? I just purchased SGY about 3 months ago and assumed it was a recent new company. Thanks, being able to buy and ask questions later is a big, big help. This 5i is the best and I have purchased about 8-10 other investment letters and some where real rip-offs, promoting THEIR stocks so that they could profit or get out?
