Q: 1. I hold Methanex shares and bought them at 90 CAD.
I like the company fundamentals and also the fact that they recently buy back their shares. As I have some capital gains up to date, I want to know if you would recommend me taking half a position and taking advantage of the tax loss and buy k back after 30 days at the current lower price or I don't do nothing and wait for the stock to go back up?
2. Is there a co-relation with lower interest and preferred shares and bank stocks not performing well ? I own ZHP and the stock has been trading sideways for some time.

Thank you

Q: I am selling my home and moving, have not yet found a new place to live, so I will have a lot of cash to park for an unknown length of time. My plan would be to do a high interest savings account at Oaktree or buy the purpose ETF. My wife will kill me if I lose any capital…
Do you have any better ideas?
Thanks!

Q: With all of the wizards running to keep their pensions, a platform has been used as another campaign promise, ie to legislate something like a 25% reduction in cell phone rates.
Although they haven't been elected and will certainly will not get a majority this time around I would like you to please give us your analysis of what would happen to T and BCE in the long shot chance this becomes legislation?

Thanks

Q: Greetings 5i

I have made a tidy profit in CCL.B over the past few years and I now realize I let it grow too large in my cash account. Recently, of course, CCL has been sliding down. My holding in it now amounts to 5.2% of my total Canadian cash account. Conversely, I have SLF that has being doing well but now stands at 7.4% which I realize is too high.

What weighting should I aim for with both SLF and CCL in a cash account that I am working on getting into proper focus and balance?

Two questions.Please deduct appropriate credits.

Thanks

Peter
