Q: BAM says - "Our Asset Management Business Will be Listed and 25% Distributed to Shareholders"

Can you comment on how this is beneficial to shareholders of BAM.A?

Do you think it will it have an impact on BAM.A's share price?

Thanks for your advice. It is appreciated.

Q: I have lived through the 2000/2001 tech wreck and the 2008 market correction and this market is just as ugly.What reasons do you have for believing we are near a market bottom. Has capitulation has already happened? Is the VIX telling us anything?Are rising rates not going to overwhelm government debts?An extended recession seems inevitable. IMHO

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,

I just posted this on the forum. I noticed that the Fixed Income thread in the forum is rarely used, and hope it's OK to post this as a "question" so that more members can benefit from what I recently discovered.

This is a heads up to anyone who uses Scotia iTrade. Up until recently, iTrade included CMR as a commission-free ETF, but it has recently been "de-listed" as free, and now is subject to a $9.99 commission. :(

I used to use CMR to park money received from dividends in our RRIFs, to accumulate "safe" cash for the mandatory RRIF payout. No way can a commission be justified going forward!

Q: TSE60 hasn’t dropped as much as the S&P500. Reducing individual stocks risk and moved into TSE60, would it make sense to now move to the S&P 500? Or is the expectation that the TSE60 won’t drop as much as the S&P500? Where do you see the most up side potential from here.

Q: I've seen you mention in the Q and A that the bottom is likely close. And I've seen that in other analyst articles etc. But if the reaction is to the increase in interest rates and they keep going up, then why would the market bottom now? What are the chances that the market will be higher at the end of the year? And what happens if we then go into recession?

Q: Is there an ETF or fund that I can purchase that follows the Canadian Venture Index?
It has been beaten up so much that I would like to nibble at it, but I haven't been able to find a venue.

Q: Good day team,

I know that you always suggest trading/buying into positive momentum but if you were to choose some stocks (regardless of sectors), on both the CDN and US sides, what would they be? As we are all aware, there is a lot of red out there in certain sectors.

Q: Hi Peter and team,
I currently hold Transcontinental and could increase my position to a larger holding. Alternatively, thinking about selling for small loss (not crucial to do so) and switch to TFII (the sell off price is tempting).
I am low on industrials and could easily add another full position. I own Brookfield infrastructure at full position.

Do you think TCL will remain stable with relatively safe dividend? switch to TFI or add to TCL instead.
Focus is more on income, so also considering addition of EIF as I am low on industrials. I like the high dividend.
Would appreciate your comments/suggestions.
Thank you.

Q: you answered a question on mrs today. I recall this name as you brought it to members attention probably a couple of years ago. you seemed to rate it as an excellent speculative buy with good growth potential. based on what you mentioned today about the company, I don't understand why it was mentioned in the first place. it seems like a poor company with poor metrics. do you regret hi-liting the name. would you rate it a sell today.
