Q: hi,
can I get your thoughts on BABA for a long term hold. Obviously huge uncertainty re China government. but China markets down lots due to lockdowns etc. I was thinking BABA could be a good proxy for the Chinese markets.
And, if not BABA, do you have an ETF that you think would perform best with an uptick in the Chinese stock markets ( and is very liquid )
cheers, chris

Q: Looking to park some US cash and some Cdn cash with a reasonable assurance of safety (CDIC aside) while avoiding interest income in favour of capital appreciation via Horizons corporate class structure using these 2 ETFs. Do you see these as a reasonable means of achieving the goal? Both ETFs have substantial amounts invested and seem to use a similar approach to generating returns yet HSAV has more erratic up and down performance. Why? Any cautions or concerns? Whatcha think - does this plan make sense? Thanks as always for your generous thoughts.

Q: I realize this stock has been beat up. looking to add a bank stock. Looking for a dividend stock for the long term. Should move on it now or wait until the dust settles. Or the other bank I'm considering is BNS. It's been the laggard for a while.
Looking forward to your comments.

Q: Below is an email from Interactive Brokers.
"As a result of recent US legislation under Internal Revenue Code Section 1446(f), gross proceeds from sales of and certain distributions from Publicly Traded Partnerships ("PTPs") held by non-US tax residents (both individuals and entities) will be subject to 10% withholding starting on January 1, 2023."

It is not clear to me that the 10% withholding tax is on the distributions only or 10 % tax will also be applicable to the total proceeds amount when I sell it ?
The company involved in my case is ET but can also be applicable to other publicly traded partnerships.
Thanks for looking into this.

Q: Hi, How significant is Tourmaline's 15 years long term Export Marketing contract with Cheniere Energy, announced last year, to supply 140,000 mmBtu of natural gas, per day through TC Energy pipeline, commencing January, 2023. It appears that TOU will benefit from international pricing for this business. Does the company also indirectly benefit from the tight and lucrative LNG market, where Cheniere, perhaps has a dominant position ? Thank You
