Q: I have owned Boyd for the past year in a non registered account and have realized capital gains due to the conversion this month. I also own GIL in the same account. Just wondering for tax loss selling if I should sell GIL now to offset the Boyd gain a bit. I intend to buy back GIL after the 30 days. Do you think I should wait a bit or is now a good time to do this?

Q: Hello! I often see BAM.A mentioned as being the more growth-oriented stock versus BEP.UN being the more income-oriented stock. Historically, this has been the case. However, last year, BEP.UN showed more growth than BAM.A. With the growing interest in renewable energy (both from a media coverage perspective and also, I think, from actual industry development/momentum), do you feel BEP.UN's outperformance against BAM.A last year is a trend to continue into the future?

Q: Hi 5i,
Portfolio analytics shows I should increase my international holdings. I have $24,000 in my US$ TFSA account and I am considering VIGI for a long term hold. (Already have VEE and have been very pleased with VIG). Would appreciate your thoughts on including this in a TFSA as I believe there would be withholding tax? Thanks.
