Investment Q&A

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

Q: Good morning, If I sell ZWH, VGG and VIG in taxable accounts and replace with ZWA and VGH (both hedged and in Cdn dollars), will this trigger the disallowed tax loss? i.e. are they too similar to replace within 30 days? If so what would be a better solution? What would be your suggestion for US representation at this time?
Thanks for your never ending help.

Q: In reagrds to your model portfolio update;

Sell full position in BMO Equal Weight REIT ETF (ZRE, NR)
Trade Rationale - We see a few headwinds facing the broad REIT industry. Higher potential rates may make this segment come out of favour while also increasing costs to the REITs themselves. Add in high property values and pressure on retail stores, and we think it is time to be more targeted with any REIT exposure.


I concur and shifted my focus to smaller, higher yielding albeit riskier REITS like PRV which is flat since purchase not including DRIP & NXR just bought. My question is what REIT's would you recomend for this targeted approach and retail concerns, I am familair with some of your more popular REIT suggestions so hoping to hear some diferent names.

Thanks!

Q: Hi, would appreciate your comments on RPI.un earnings. Results seems to have been benefited with a tailwind of low CDN$. Should there be an adverse impact, going forward? Also, company seems to be paying down debt steadily. Based on current valuation, is it worth an addition to the packaging co's group ? Thanks
