Q: I was surprised to receive the corporate action from MEG dated July 29th (see below) 1) Is this a done deal? I thought the offer was considered too low and speculation was that other offers would likely be forthcoming. 2) If it were you, what would you do with your shares of MEG?

Option 1: Tender (Canadian Shareholders and Shareholders who reside in a "Non-Restricted State") -
To receive $4.10 CAD and 0.62 of a common share of Strathcona Resources Limited (SCR (TSX) /
(STHRF) (OTC)) (862952108) for each common share of MEG Energy Corporation tendered.

Q: Hi There,
I prefer not to buy DLR to convert from CAD to USD because of high MER and I don't mind holding the security for awhile before selling in my USD account. Can you suggest an alternative which is a dual listed CAD stock as a possible DLR replacement that has these characteristics; good trading volume, low bid/ask spread, low volatility, no dividend etc.

Q: What are your thoughts on this company. I am looking to invest a smaller portion initially for a longer term hold. It has manufacturing facilities in both Canada and the U,S, which should shield it from tariffs and operations seem to have improved in the last few years.

Thank you

David

Q: I-MAB (IMAB:Nasdaq) is up 11% today on 4 times the usual volume. Is this a sign of a fundamentally significant move in its prospects? Your insight would be much appreciated as it is well-rated but not by firms/analysts I recognize.
Thanks
David

Q: First, CRCL: Great IPO …. But now be pounded down!
How did this love affair end so quickly and be penalized so severely?

Would you see something similar happening with FIG?

There seems to be a lot of interest in jumping onto that bandwagon right now but I gather your advice is to hold off for now.

Thanks for your insights.

Q: further to six figure estate RIFF taxations----I am an 88 year old in that high tax bracket.

an additional strategy is to give while still alive to receivers in lower brackets ---- you see what they do with it. I found they use it wisely.

Q: Having held FTS approx. 10 years I have enjoyed the total return. Now looking (in a well diversified RIF) at taking the gains and redeploying into CNR for some yield but predominantly capital gain over the next 3 to 5 years to bolster portfolio size due to increasing req. withdrawals (also own TFI and looking for similar upside on this). Thoughts?

Q: Hi 5i, Digital coins question, As of mid-2025, there are over 17,000 cryptocurrencies in existence (1 7 0 0 0 lol) ; Bitcoin and Ethereum account for most of the total crypto market cap (~70%) ; these two are the darlings of the digital era "the GoTo" to be in the game.
Most cryptocurrencies lack real-world use cases, active development, or sustainable communities. Many are speculative, abandoned, or outright scams. Besides Bitcoin and Ethereum, what other coin(s) would you favor ? thanks
