Q: In your opinion, is there any future for the pot stocks? There seems to be a surplus of cannabis on both the legal and black markets, black market prices are dropping and provincial governments now seem inclined to try to compete. Will any of the pot stocks be able to make serious profits in the near or long term?
Thanks.

Q: In a straight-up comparison of BMO (Bank of Montreal) versus RY (Royal Bank), for a long-term position (non-registered account), which one would you buy, and why? (I've owned BMO for >25 years, never owned Royal, but because of ongoing portfolio adjustments, I'm in a position where I want to own one of these two banks, for the long-term. Note: I already have long-standing positions in TD Bank and National Bank, in my Canadian portfolio, so another aspect to my question is which one better complements my existing Canadian bank holdings. In my situation, there are no particular tax implications for buying BMO vs RY.)

Q: Why the announcement combination of SOX and BDT resulted on SOX going down by more than half. I hold SOX in a registered account at a huge loss. Do you think it is time just to bail out or wait for the transaction to take place? What is the incentive to the board of directors to agree on a transaction that results in such a drastic devaluation of stock price?

Thanks

Q: re: T1135 Foreign Income Verification Form

Hi 5i,
I understand that you are not tax experts but, I would appreciate your thoughts.
I am a Canadian citizen and I have ample cash in my NonReg account such that I can allocate more than $100K to US listed securities on a US exchange. In general, I am interested in purchasing US listed ETF's since they are much cheaper and there are many choices. Are there any drawbacks to exceeding the $100K threshold other than having to file the T1135 form?

thanks for your comments!
