Q: With respect to ROC and reits. Should I as an investor with most assets in registered accounts avoid as a rule those reits with high ROC.
I assume ROC lowers the value of the company with each distribution . In a non registered account tax provisions allow one to offset the original coast by the same , this advantage is lost in a registered account.
Not being an accountant - am I missing something here?

Q: May I have your thoughts on Tesla? I was considering buying it for a short term trade to try to ride any waive of short covering—the short float seems high at 30% and I assume that there will have to be some degree of covering if the stock continues to recover a bit on good news. Can I have your opinion on such a trade? Thanks.

Q: Stella Jones seemed to bounce back from its CEO-departure-triggered price-drop, but has retraced, today, below Monday's 'panic' level; is there some other issue now at work? I would have thought low-growth concerns were already priced-in.
