Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hello Peter,
Unless i misunderstood, the results for Topicus were good when compared to Lumine Group, yet Topicus barely moved a needle and Lumine Group actually went up .. Could this be due to Topicus European focus and investors are not as comfortable with European markets? Thanks very much

Q: I have read many times in the past that it was not a good idea to buy mutual funds late in the year. Probably because of taxable distributions. Would you agree with this?

Q: If the S&P were to drop 5-7% as Fund Strat is suggesting between now and the end of November, are there any specific stocks or sectors that 5i thinks would be hurt the most.

FS has an enviable record of calling market trends accurately. And not being doom and gloomers. In fact they are still calling for further upside in total out to the end of the year.

Of course no one is right all the time. But I have been looking to raise some cash and this might be a good time to do so.

Thank you for your help.

Q: Hello Peter,
I hold Berkshire in my rrsp and in the sad event Warren Buffet passes away, i do not see any tax implications (assuming the company splits or has spinoffs) until i withdraw money from the RRSP. I am thinking of investing in the CDR for Berkshire class B shares in my TFSA, Would there be any tax implications if the company structure changed? Thanks very much.

Q: I haven’t been receiving market updates for a while so unfortunately I’ve missed a few buy/sell recommendations. I received my last question reply but not much else (checked spam folder as well). Was there a change recently to the email updates? My email hasn’t changed.

Thanks

Q: Hi There,

I own the first 3 companies in equal weightings and have done reasonably well with each. I’d like to buy AVGO but I need to sell one of the three.

All things considered which 1 do you think I should sell with a 5 year horizon.

Thank you!

Q: Being that the USD is quite high right now, what would be the best out of these three HHL ETFs to buy this fall? I have Canadian dollars so would be moving the money to USD to buy HHL.U. From their site it looks like the HHL.B is the best performer overall but I'm not clear how today's rates effect price etc.

Also would it make sense to have another fund like VHT or IYH to compliment HHL, which would give more upside over time? In one response you like VHT better - why is that?
Thanks so much!
