Q: Could you tell me if i transferred all of my holdings, eg. Stocks, Etf's from an RSP into a TFSA, if i would take a tax hit? If i did, would it not make sense to do it, thanks?

Q: I notice that the recent US corporate tax reduction is enhancing the earnings of Canadian companies that operate divisions in the US. It appears these tax changes may not have been factored into earning estimates.
One cfo told me that the effective corporate tax rate should decrease 3% going forward.

Equally as important, having an operating company in the US gives a company more flexibility to structure operations/source product more efficiently, leaving more profit in the US without the incremental tax cost.

Q: With regards to John's question on the G&M watchlist feature. The new rollout is terrible. I wasn't aware it was only for subscribers, I am a subscriber and one now considering cancelling. I have changed over to the Financial Times watchlist which meant typing in my stocks again but it was worth it. You can subscribe for free and set up a watchlist, the screener there is not bad too.

Q: I bought some high flyers ... Now that I have made some quick cash on paper , I am concerned that I might lose if the market decides to go south. Do you have any feelings about these , or do you feel it is "safer" to play the ( broader ) Nasdaq rather than the tech sector as I am doing. Any thoughts are appreciated . I already own all of the Tech Giants , and they have done well too ( except for QCOM grrrrr) .

Q: Hi!
I'm concerned about the potential for a looming recession in the context of increasing interest rates, especially in the US. As a way to hedge against increasing interest rates and to protect against downside risk, I was wondering if you could recommend some high growth, high dividend paying stocks, US or Canada?
Thanks!

Q: Do you take downgrades with a grain of salt. There are constantly companies being downgraded. Does that mean if I hold a downgraded stock get rid of it because it isn't going to do much or when it goes down buy more? I hold TOY a recent downgrade and it has dropped off some - buy more, sell? Thank you very much Dennis
