Q: Hello, How come I do not see you recommend ZAG for bond exposure? I saw a recent question where you recommended ZCS for bond exposure. When I look at a 10 year chart, ZAG seems to have outperformed ZCS. Is it because of rising bond yields that you recommend holding ZCS as you predict better performance over ZAG?

Thank you!

Q: Hi 5i,

I’m a conservative investor who doesn’t like a lot of volatility. I want to diversify a little more from my banks, utilities, and Reits to get a little more growth. I like KXS but can’t handle that amount of volatility. Do you think TIXT would be more appropriate? Is it a good time to purchase at $36? I own OTEX and have no problem with its volatility.

Thanks
John

Q: Hello,
I already own these stocks. I am doing some selling / trimming / buying and would appreciate your comments:
DSG - I did well. Exposure at the high end but ok. How confident are you in the name for the next few years? If sold partially, I would allocated to KXS of TIXT. Your thoughts?
TOY - Do you like it more with momentum as of late? Decent long term hold or good time to sell at these level?
REAL - I am down about 25% but small position. I was thinking of adding at these level (or sell since position not big enough). It would be a long term hold. Your thoughts?
NFI - Hold or sell?
Fortis - Would you add at these level?
Thank you,

Q: RE: Taxes and Form T5008...I have bought the same stock from the 3 on line brokers I use. Can I combine all 3 buys and sells into one T5008 line or do I have to show trade each separately? thanks

Q: I have 2.5% position in KXS which I’ve had since March 2020 in my RRSP - thank you for the suggestion.

I have a new 1.4% position in XBC in my TSFA which is under water by 25% as of today.

If you had 3% in cash to deploy would you increase on or both of these or find something else?

Forgetting diversification- long term holding so a min 5 year investment horizon.

Q: I realize all tech is getting clobbered, the past few days in particular. SHOP is down quite a bit. As a bigger growth company do you feel SHOP is buyable now or has the market soured on it with its elevated valuation? At times it seems you feel hesitant about the company and other times a big booster of its longer term picture. How do you feel now and provide reasoning.

Q: Team, I believe you still have confidence in all 3 stocks listed. My question is in what order would you be adding to? Growth being the main criteria, two year time frame.

thanks
