Investment Q&A

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

Q: I have the following loss that I can claim as a tax loss- wef = 44% - usa=31% - shop=18% - meg=14% - lspd=16% - Kel=40% gud 30%. My question is there any of these stocks that have any chance they will recover before the 30 buy back period expires? I would hate to sell them and then watch them recover more that the loss that is claimable?- appreciate your thoughts

Q: Good morning all,
In an earlier answer to Dave it was suggested that "we might sell ..... and one of KXS/CSU. For clarification does this mean that you somehow consider KXS and CSU somewhat equivalent? I was surprised to see these two companies considered as one or other type positions and would appreciate a bit of an explanation.
Many thanks,
Brian

Q: Just wandering why you do not include very many reits in any of your portfolios? Some of the reits seemed to have had a pretty good year so far in 2019.
Keep up the good work.

Q: For a variety of reasons I feel that Precious Metals and Resources should do well. However, picking stocks in this space leaves a lot to be desired(FNV, KL, AEM aside) Getting both the timing the commodity and company execution seems nearly impossible, even if you are willing to listen to all the crazies that think the world is about to implode! Yet getting both right seems to be critical.
I think active management may earn it's fees in this sector.
For PM -I'm looking at Dynamic Precious Metals
For Resources - I'm looking at Dynamic Strategic Resource Class

How do you feel about the manager? Is there another you would suggest?
