Investment Q&A

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

Q: I just noticed on my transaction history, as did Geoff (Dec. 17), that a sizable portion of the money I received for Dream Global is listed as a dividend. I too had assumed the transaction to be mostly a capital gain, and sold VET at a loss to offset the gain. If this $10 per unit truly is a dividend, then I, like many others I`m sure, will have a big chunk of unexpected taxable income to choke on! (The circular did mention a bit of an extra distribution without mentioning an amount, but made it sound modest.) For me, as a senior of modest income, this`ll mean a year of lost government benefits. Live and learn, eh. Next time, just sell as soon as the offer is made!

Q: in your answer to Richard on january 3rd you pointed out a target price for Flutter of 93.92 Euro, should have this been in GBP and therefore target price for TSGI be rather north of CAN$ 36. If target price for tsgi is $30.something, i would be selling first thing on monday morning. Could you give all members us clarification for this. Thank you

Q: I was reading about some companies that are writing code for fashion designers so people can print their own custom clothes at home but the companies are still too small and private, not public. I wasn’t sure how many were public yet. The 3D printing will democratize the fashion industry among other things.

Q: I did a screen on "undervalued" companies with growing dividends. My aim is income and dividend growth. Possibly a DRIP if available. Which 2 companies would you choose and why?

Q: My question is about GC. Am reviewing my TFSA positions and am trying to decide whether to continue to hold or move on to something else. Short term seems to be "dead money" but longer term may see return to good growth. I am okay waiting for 3-5 yrs, but not if there is little growth over that time frame. What level of comfort do you have with the management team's near term execution and capex returns? The money laundering issues have seemed to die down somewhat. Do you think that there could be a take-over because of the current valuation?
Thanks
