Q: Hello 5i,

Thanks

Q: What do you make of the recent increase in the spread of WTI oil over WCS oil of more than 50%? What are the CDN. mid-caps most relying on WCS. Thanks.

Q: I am thinking of harvesting a tax loss in CAR.UN. Had bought this to protect against, or just dampen, the abrasive effect of inflation. I do not need a loss for tax year 2022 so it would be for use in some future year. I could use the proceeds to buy a different REIT , as a possible (probable?) protection against inflation.
1- Am I correct about REITs being a probable protection against inflation?
2- Although interest rates will be higher going forward, I assume inflation also dampens effect of debt. Is this in fact true?
3-Would you suggest an industrial REIT over a residential? Please suggest names you favor. I like ones that are inter-listed as I have only US$. ( TCN, Granite GRP in the US and others). But ones listed in Canada only are also just fine.

Q: Hi Peter and team.
Significant losses in all of these over last 3-6 months. Would you bail out on any of them and what could I reinvest in 3 CDN and 3 US that have been similarly beaten down but have a better growth outlook ?
Personal account with a fair balance of 40% US securities currently.
Thanks for all the advice
Peter

Q: Hi 5i,

I have a TD RRSP where I accidentally bought Roku in my CAD section of my RRSP. I have a USD portion of the same RRSP, can I have this moved in kind to the USD section?

Thanks!
