Q: More than one topic -- The Feds are forecasting GDP to decline by 42% which will be the biggest single year drop since WWII. Will the market take a hit for a period of time? I have read about SPAC (buying a company before it becomes an IPO) not listed on Globe Investor with 2 of a few names associated with it being Bill Ackman and Harry Sloan -- and SPCE (listed on Globe Investor) and would ask what is your take on what I consider new products to use for investing? I read an article of another member who had similar questions about the above-mentioned. Thank you, Dennis

Q: In order to increase my holdings in Healthcare, I bought Theratechnologies 2 years ago at $7.21 when 5i was bullish on the stock. The stock did quite well for awhile and I was very happy. It closed on Friday at $2.68 (not so happy anymore). Is this company expected to recover or should I accept my losses and sell?

Q: In the industrial sector I have a weighting of 19.41%. I know this is over weight, but I like the stocks I own for future growth. For colour I own CAE 3.97% up 14.22% recent addition. EIF 4.31% up 20.31%: TFII 5:47% up 105.97%: : WSP 3.75% up 4.79%:
My concern is with TFII, after reading a copy of the conference call I’m not exactly excited about the future. Seems to be tough sledding from here on.What are your thoughts?

Q: Hi,
are the dividends paid by CDZ all eligible for the dividend tax credit or is there a portion that is return of capital? Sorry, I couldn't find it on Blackrock's web site.
Also, what would explain the negative performance of this ETF's in the past year as compared to say the XIC or XIU?
Thanks,
Dan

Q: With respect to Shyam questioning your answer regarding US Tech stocks seeing tax loss selling in January. I believe the portion of your original answer that he is referencing related to selling tech stocks in January to crystallize capital gains, not losses, as a result of the huge run in tech stocks this year. The reason people will hold off selling tech stocks till January, both in Canada and US, is that it is the start of a new tax year and they may not want to incur capital gains until the new tax year starts. A corresponding drop in Tech prices may occur if this sell off is large enough.
