If so what % of the portfolios would you sell? I am retired and have holdings in TFSA, RIF and individual accounts. Thank you in advance!

Q: Hi,
You aren't tax experts and this isn't a tax forum - but to the extent you can answer please:
If Canadians own shares in USD on the US side of their brokerage account in US companies, such as Google and Microsoft, and the COST of those shares exceeds $100,000 CAD, is that Canadian required to file Form T1135 with the CRA?
Alternatively, if a Canadian owns a CDR for Google, for example, on the TSX in CAD, and that COST exceeds $100,000, does that Canadian need to file a Form T1135?
Thank you,

Q: Hi 5i,
What's your best choice for an ETF to park some money in a safe place that will get better returns than a high interest savings account. Previously I had some in the ETF CASH but I understand that some governmental changes have resulted in these types of ETFs delivering lower return than previously.
Thanks!
Murray

How can you go wrong with a 10% yield?
Is the dividend tax credit applicable in a cash account
Are there any tax implications in a tfsa
What are the cons of this investment?
Thank you so much

Q: A recent article in the Globe postulated that M & A activity in the Canadian tech sector could increase in 2025. Some of the reasons given were the delayed implementation of the increase in capital gains taxation, the low Canadian dollar and tariffs.
Are there tech companies you would view as potential take-over targets in 2025?
Thanks for the great service!

Q: Hello 5i Team,
What are your thoughts on Arista networks from here? AI demand is still strong and all those GPU's have to be networked. NVDA networking division was actually flat (did not grow) so you would assume there is other networking equipment being used.
If you like it would you accumulate at these prices or lower?
