Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Earlier this month the CRA asked tax-filers to delay filing if they had capital gains because their system had not yet been fully readjusted for the capital gain flip-flop. Since then I have not heard anything more; do you know if they are now up to speed? Because of that delay request, I'm going to be late.

Q: Hi Peter and the 5i Team,

First off, I'd like to thank 5i member "Peter" for his excellent recommendation of the IE generated website 'Perplexity'. What an amazing alternative to Google Search!

'Perplexity' was able to answer a question that I had about the UFile tax software that even UFile's help desk failed to answer with clarity.

Secondly, is there a link to your recent webinar for those of us who were unable to view it in real time?

Thanks in advance!

Q: Can I get your quick comments on these companies? I'm down on these between 20-45%. Do you think they are still worth holding or looking to clean up these weeds and deploy into other higher quality names. Thanks!

Q: I know you often mention both of these names as preferred silver names. If you were to pick 1 would you say that perhaps MAG has the most potential for growth going forward ? Just looking at the charts it appears that MAG has not really fired the way PAAS has - would you agree ? What other silver stocks would you recommend as having the most potential for growth right now. Finally, do you agree that silver is likely a better investment than gold now based on the gold/silver ratio ?

Q: I recently read an article saying Goldman Sachs reports their base case for US tariff negotiations to include long-standing percents to be remain in place. As in, the rates may or may not change from their present 10%. I am trying to make informed decisions about expected uncertainty and whether strategic portfolio balancing needs to be done. Appreciating we don’t have a crystal ball, don’t see the sustained tariffs as a likely outcome and would you recommend any responses to higher probability outcomes to this? For example- avoiding high-multiple US stocks emerging markets or others.

Q: Good afternoon,

One of the services I like to check in on for fun does technical analysis video updates for the overall happenings in the markets that can be found on YouTube (and obviously should be met a fair share of skepticism), well today one of the things they’re talking about is a rare Zweig Breadth Thrust signal.

I realize that your wheelhouse is focusing on good companies and in the long run that's what matters most, however I was wondering if you’ve noticed the same signal (ie, did it actually happen)?

Thank you


PS. I submitted the question as private, but please free to make it a public question if you feel it is a good learning question for other members.

Q: Can you give your thoughts on INMD's earnings today? The market isn't liking the continued rev and profit deceleration, and again lowered guidance. They blame economic forces but this pre dates Trump and the recent pullback, so one has to believe their previous products keep losing brand power. They have a lot of cash, and they bought back a lot of shares but its seeming like a bit of a value trap since the buybacks aren't making up for the business decel. They released a newer product in the last year but at this point we have no clue if its going to do well. Is this still a hold for you? Thx

Q: Form 1042-S

Hi there,

I know you 're not a tax expert but maybe you are familiar with form 1042-S. Just asking where to input the numbers under this form on my tax return. This is the first time I received on this one. The reason Im asking is because I asked my broker and still they did not get back to me.

Appreciate your help.

Thanks

Q: Hi Peter et al,

You folks are very knowledgeable about Long Short Options and other hedging techniques. With that in mind, may I ask for your opinion about Simplify ETFs for income. I was impressed by Michael Greene's interview on Danny Moses' podcast.
(On the tape with Danny Moses).

Looked at his website and he seems to offer a lot of income generating ETFs based on solid instruments. (Bonds, Treasuries and Solid stocks). HIGH, BUCK, CRDT, AGGH etc.,

The MER seems reasonable. But only available in USD.

Worth dipping in? Which one would you as their best offering?

If you think there are better alternatives here in Canada or even in the US, please feel free to share your suggestions.

Many thanks.
