Q: Do you feel VET is a good candidate for tax loss selling at the end of September and repurchase 30 days later (end of October)? I understand Mr. Trump's Iranian oil sanctions come into force in November which may pressure oil prices upwards. Mr. Trump seems to be leaning on the Saudi's to increase production but commentators seem think they don't have enough spare capacity to help him out. I would try to swing my activity to keep the monthly dividend. Do your sources indicate the Record Date for September?
Thanks,
Jim

Q: Hi team
the above Sap has been going down
would it be related to NAFTA with threats from US

OK to hold as defensive stock to get some dividends
unless you have another recommendation?

Q: Hi, Transcontinental Inc shares are down almost 20% within less than a week, due to an unexpected hit on earnings mostly caused by delay in Coveris contribution. From a long term perspective and with cushion of dividend yield of 3%, does it make sense and would you be comfortable to take advantage of the dip and overweight to 5-6% for income and growth. Thanks

Q: Hi terrific team,

Earlier last year, in the health maintenance sector, you had mixed views on Molina Healthcare (MOH-N) , Aetna(aet-n), Humana(hum-n).
