Q: So I bought GLXY at its peak of $34.00 and then watched it drop precipitously and then bought more at $15.00 so averaged out at $19.50 , it’s now $32.00. What a ride ! In my TFSA and still own.
I bought it because it is well managed, diversified in the crypto world, solid financials , future Nasdaq listing , and looks to benefit from Trump’s support of crypto.
While I have personally experienced its volatility I wish to mitigate such extremes as I recently experienced. I am worse at selling than buying a stock ( common to many investors ?) so am looking at stop loss orders. I believe you are not a fan but David Burrows uses them on every stock so thoughts vary on them. He uses point and click charts ? I was thinking of just using a simple % such as a 20% decline since it has such volatility. What is your suggestion on selling stocks and using certain dynamics when determining when to sell ? Thanks. Derek.

Also, your choice of either PXT or TSU as potential picks. Thanks Derek

Q: I want to put some money into an RESP for our newborn granddaughter. I will add some more stable growth stocks over time, but I want to start with 1 AI stock or ETF and 1 crypto stock or ETF, as the base.
These will be the buy and forget, holdings in the RESP
Can you recommend a couple US/CDN stocks and etfs in both categories, and your thoughts on whether US or Cdn currency is the better option. For a long-term hold like this, am I better to use stocks or ETFs, as the base?

Q: I'm thinking of exiting WELL for something that will be growthier if the markets continue to recover. I have VHI, GLXY and PRL in the Canadian side of my TFSA. Can you suggest a Canadian Growthy stock regardless of sector?
Thanks!

Q: I hold WELL, LMN, GLXY , EIF in roughly equal amounts in my TFSA and they are approximately 5% of my total cash and RRIF portfolios. My initial TFSA set up was for small cap growth stocks as other portfolios are full of banks , utilities, pipelines etc. Am retired and have enjoyed playing the “ riskier “ side of my portfolios , but haven’t made much money at it ! Am looking at selling it all and buying HTA for its
10 % distribution while keeping me in a growth sector. I like the idea of getting some money NOW instead of waiting till I sell. What do you think of this approach ? Possibly split the portfolio with HTA and EIF ? If I sold in stages in what order would you sell ? Thanks Derek.

Q: I started accumulating positions in these the last couple of days with intentions of adding more. Was never able to get in at decent prices ever before. They have all bounced back today and are in green quite nicely which is great but they are only small positions and I wanted to buy more. Do I wait as this mess will give another chance to get in Or do i average up ? Any issues with anything on the list ?

Q: Hi, holding a few of these losers now in my non registered accounts - they were nice winners just a short time ago. What are the best proxies for these as a tax loss strategy? If my holding is CAD and the proxy is US, should I convert CAD funds to buy US or avoid these situations? Also, at what $ or price % loss would you consider doing these tax loss trades? Thanks!

Q: First of all, thank you 5I for all these companies.

These are my only holdings in tech at the moment.

I have a present LOSS of 3.76% on GLXY;
a GAIN OF 52.08% on Lumine;
a GAIN of 57% on SHOP,
and a GAIN of 19.99% on TOI.

Needless to say, I'm very happy with these returns, even if GLXY is wobbling at the moment.

Do you see this as a good time to add to all/any of these positions at this time, with a quick rationale.

I still have lots of room to add to my tech positions at this time, so if I'm not adding to these, would you recommend another "growthy" company or two.

Thanks to 5 I, I've killed my "Chicken Little" personality from long ago, and am quite comfortable riding out the vacillations of the marketplace. : )

Q: These two seem to be in the same "space". I'm not sure if they are competitors. I'm also trying to better understand this crypto market. Both appear to have potential and I understand that they are risky and I assume they both will move with the price of bitcoin.
I would like to have a small position. Do you recomend one over the other or a small position in each. Thanks John
