Q: Jean asked about converting USD to CDN and you replied with Questrade steps. For TD I use the following: https://creditcarrots.com/norberts-gambit-td-direct-investing/ It is important to follow exactly i.e., when selling click the sell button on top right NOT the sell button beside the DLR shares. Or just call TD when ready to sell.
Q: Hello, I own Aritzia stock. I purchased it at its lowest point in 2023, and now it has increased by 63%. The company’s quarterly earnings release is scheduled for July 11. However, I have concerns that the earnings may not be ideal. To preserve my profit, I’m considering either selling the stock or buying a put option. It’s important to note that this stock is in my cash account, so selling it would have tax consequences. I would greatly appreciate your professional advice. Thank you!
Q: Hi 5i, upto now many US retailers are reporting lower numbers and guidance, even HD guided lower. I really like this company and thinking things might get worse for the US consumer thereby making even lower guidance by HD. So based on current valuation is HD a good buy, and historically how has it behaved in past downturns. Thx.
Q: Good morning 5i,
I just read your excellent report on Canadian companies which could rebound with a changing economic environment, especially concerning rate cuts. You mentionned AQN and a Brookfield clean energy company.
I imagine the same dynamics would hold for US stocks. I was wondering specifically, whether ICLN might be an American company similar to the Canadian ones you mention?
thanks for the great service
Q: Given that these two companies control apx. 65% of phone and internet use, what change would reverse the course of their stock price? Does the concentration of ownership and reliance on their services not bode well into the future? Thanks
