Investment Q&A

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

Q: I would like to add to one or two of the above stocks with my gains from Shopify. In a well diversified portfolio I am looking for dividend income with some growth. I hold all of the above just slightly less than a 2% allocation in the portfolio.

Many thanks for your continued support, education, advice and suggestions. I have done well under 5i direction since 2013. Thank you.

Q: The question of what to do when one is worried about the possibility of a sharp market correction often arises. In the past you have proposed increasing the portfolio allocation to cash. As a complement to that strategy, what about tilting the portfolio more toward low beta (less than 0.5, say) stocks? I’m thinking of stocks like L, ECI, CSH.UN, KBL, SJ, SLF. How much protection - qualitatively speaking -do you think that would provide against the possibility of a sharp correction of, say, 10-15%?

Q: Tourmaline has been in a bit of a freefall lately. Should i consider tax loss selling the stock? What companies should i consider in the switch? I have a very low % of oil and gas stocks in my portfolio no counting enbridge and transcanada.

Also a firm expressed that DAP-U is good value selling at a reasonable price; do you agree?

Q: Hello Team,

I have a regular CDN TFSA, with $43,000 invested, and i have a portion of cash allotted to a USD TFSA with $15000 invested. Between the two i need to generate safely with minimal risk $300 dollars per month? Can you suggest some income producing strategies that could help me obtain my goal? please include some equities.

Are the US and the CDN TFSA'S treated the same for tax purposes, when withdrawing investment income? charge me as a two part question!

Thanks,
Stephen
