Q: Peter and Team:
I need some exposure to the healthcare sector and my choices are very limited in Canada, especially when Johnathon doesn't want to play in the Chess Game presently. What are your favourite US names, and where does ABBVIE fit in to the puzzle? When I am typing a question, does it time out after so many minutes?
Regards,
Ben.

Q: Greetings All:
I bought 3K shares of U back when it was $8.00, and before the Big Meltdown. With the current popularity of SMR'S and green energy do you think that it is still too early for the Big U to make a comeback. Cigar Lake is shut down again. Your opinion. Would I be adding to a dead horse?
Thanks,
Ben.

Q: Feel free not to publish if I’m mistaken, but I would want to caution Keith (Dec 29) who said he might contribute his Nutrien shares to his registered account and would realize a capital loss in doing so. I do not believe that one can claim any capital loss when the disposition results from a contribution to one’s RRSP or TFSA. He would need to sell the shares in his non-reg’d account (and realize the loss) and then contribute the money if he chose, but should not then repurchase the NTR shares until 30 days has passed.

Q: Hi gang,
On Dec. 22, chief financial officer Jonathan Pollack sold 500,000 shares at a price per share of $20.6904. Proceeds from this sale totaled over $10-million, not including commission charges.
Do you still like AT? And is there any reason for today's decline?

Thx

Q: Two questions however no need to answer until new year but first, before I forget, where do I find current year information on ROC for this ETF? I have checked i-share web site, fund prospectus , fact sheet but cannot find the info. Seems I only learn about the current ROC payout in the following year when I receive the tax statements from TD Direct Investing. Finally, where is XTR best held by a retiree with a DB pension: TFSA or non-registered account?

Q: I own full positions (5%) in GOOG and AMZN.
Would you sell either or both to buy SHOP?
I'm not a huge fan of partial positions but would consider turning two into three if you recommended.
If the answer is both, what would the other full position be?
Thanks for the great service, Just gave a gift membership for Christmas.
