Q: I have had significant realized capital gains this year in my non-registered portfolio. To help offset the gains I would like to sell and rebuy in 30 days shares that I have a significant unrealized capital loss. AVO is one of these companies. I know it is difficult to predict but would I be better selling now or waiting to the end of the year?

Q: Hi Peter & team, They reported today....earnings miss!

The company did not benefit from the rise in egg prices as much as forecast, according to CNBC.

"Looking ahead, we should have an adequate supply of our primary feed ingredients, but expect that prices will be volatile in the year ahead," Cal-Maine Foods chairman, president, and CEO Dolph Baker said in a statement.

Your comments please. Sell/hold or opportunity to add?

Thank you!

Q: An earlier Q&A made me wonder whether I should get into my margin, to make more money! I have 8 years of secure employment until I can retire and currently have no debts. What stocks do you suggest for good growth potential without taking on a high amount of risk?
PS. Thanks to 5I, I am actually making money in the market!

Q: Recently, when running stock screens for US companies showing a combination of value/growth characteristics, these two companies (Applied Industrial Technology and Sun Hydraulics)constantly showed up for their strong fundamentals. I do realize that you specialize in Canadian stocks but wondered if you had an opinion on these two companies for a long term investor. Thank-you.

Q: I have been retired for one year. My asset allocation is: 75% equity, 6% cash and 19% fixed income. My broker at FBN says that I need to increase the fixed income part of my portfolio (RSP) and suggests those notes or ETF from BMO to stabilize my portfolio:
ZUH
Bank of Montreal JHN 8901 or Bank of Montreal JHN 8902
JHN 8905
NBC 1780
What do you think of those choices?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Serge

Q: What do you think of PTS? I purchased it about 8 months ago and it's down 11% since then. It's down by >50% since early 2014. I'm trying to decide whether I should bail or not. It has a decent enough forward PE and seems to be in a good business niche but it continues to disappoint.
