Investment Q&A

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

Q: So, after the market closed yesterday, PLC announced they were withdrawing any further involvement in the purchase of Carriage. I would have expected today to be a "down" day...due to the perception that PLC would not be "growing" as per their stated 5 year plan of growth by acquisition (my paraphrase).

However, today PLC is up 4%. Is it due to the market being relieved that PLC is better off not having to add debt to their balance sheet?

A bit confused...thanks...Steve

Q: I have a loss in CM which is matched by an equal gain in TD.
Was thinking to sell both and buying equal amounts of BNS and RY.
All are in a non registered account. Is the tax loss accepted?
Would you recommend any changes back after 30 days?

Q: Good afternoon. I have the following tax loss selling question.

Let assume I sell 1000 shares of BCE on October 1. To avoid the superficial loss rule, I will wait 30 days to buy it back. Let’s assume this is November 1.

Then on October 15th, I sell another 1000 shares of BCE. As per the above, I will buy them back on November 15th.

The question I have is as follows - If I buy back the 1000 shares of BCE as planned on November 1st from the first tax loss sale, will this compromise my ability to claim a loss from the second sales of BCE shares on the 15th?

Q: Any reason for the relentless sell down of the BIPC.UN/BIPC combo today (and of late as well)? Looks like some fund is either accumulating, or making a play for this Brookfield unit. You opinion?

Q: I am looking to purchase the specialty property REIT SUI and animal pharmaceutical ZTS stocks when the seemingly irrational downward trends settle. Do either have potential debt issues to consider that might explain their current valuations?
