Investment Q&A

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

Q: CVE and MEG are considerably under-performing the energy sector this week, I'm guessing partially due to investors are doing some profit-taking since the TMX just got announced as the market has been hoping for. I have some decent unrealized gain in CVE and MEG, and noticed WCP was down a lot this Monday on unusual high volume, do you think it's a good idea to swap my energy holding from either MEG or CVE into WCP?

Q: Over the last year I have been trying to follow some 5i stocks using your philosophy of buy and give it a chance as long as the fundamentals are there. I had a full posn (4%) in TSGI (one example) which is down by 54% now. Normally I would have sold as soon as there was indication of troubles or momentum went out of the stock. I think Ryan indicated he thinks the owners will figure it. Yet some of the responses I'm reading are not too sure. Can you firm it up a bit?

Thanks

Q: It is possible that next year we may have a minority's govt. in Ottawa between the liberals and ndp. As there is too much govt debt and the ndp will want to increase social spending and perhaps block any pipeline expansion they will need to increase tax revenue.one way would be to increase the capital tax from 50%.We are in our early 80s and were long term investors ,have large capital gains. Does it make sense for us to sell our equities with a view to repurchase them back using the net after tax proceeds? After all eventually we or our estate will have to pay the tax.
