Q: I hold SIS and also disappointed, but I did purchase at $5.72 so I will watch for now. PLC announced an offering: Park Lawn Corporation Announces $125 Million Bought Deal Offering and Successful Completion of Cress Funeral Service Acquisition. Stock down 6.75%, is this an opportunity to purchase PCL at a discount?
Thanks

Q: Hi Peter and Co.
I currently own MSI, PLC and TCN in a well diversified RRIF. These 3 are under-represented and I have some cash to deploy. Assuming these 3 are keepers, which would you add to?
Thanks, as always.

Q: I own all these company in a non-registered account. At the present I am losing money on all of them. These are all strong companies with good to excellent balance sheets. I know that 5i do not want to sell companies that are strong and that have reported a bad quarter. I could sell these a get a tax loss and receive approximately a bit less than a $1000 in tax refund and buy them back in a month or buy other company in the same sector? What should I do?

Q: Can you provide me a list of several dividend stocks that are relatively recession-proof but still have decent yield and potential for long-term growth? I'd like to start investing a bit in dividend stocks a bit each month but am wary of the financial uncertainty that is hovering over us right now.

Q: Hi 5i, Seasons Greetings. I generally am a buy and hold type but could use some tax losses against earlier gains this year. The above mentioned stocks could be sold and repurchased in early January. Would that be prudent? Is there anything I should not repurchase? Thanks, Ted
