Q: Considering tax loss selling NFI and TCL (and possibly ALA) then waiting 30+ days to rebuy. Using TurboTax, the loss saves me 15%. Does your crystal ball foresee any quick rebound potential for these 3 stocks that would cause me to rethink this strategy? Thanks...Steve

Q: Good Day,

AS BNS continues to fall I see that the forward P/E based upon the consensus shown on the RBC Direct site is 9.5. Seems like good value considering the 4.7% yield. Your thoughts? Also wondering if you can determine what the P/E was at the lowest point during the 2008 financial crisis.

Thanks
