Investment Q&A

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

Q: Read this article in the G&M yesterday https://www.theglobeandmail.com/business/article-insurers-face-double-hit-from-new-accounting-rules-and-new-taxes/

Could we get your comments please? And would this change effect your ranking of Canadian insurance companies?

Thank You,

Tim

Q: Today I noticed that once again you recommend transferring Canadian Cos. that pay dividends in $US to the US side of our Trading accounts. I get the rationale but am wondering if it is worth the trouble of exceeding the $US investment limit of US$100k at which it is necessary to report US investments specifically to CRA ? Also it would be interesting to know why the CRA has set this arbitrary limit in the first place ? If you know why ?

Q: I m 73 years old with God willing at least another 10 years left. My Lightspeed is down 70%,$11,000. leaving me with $4,530 in my TFSA. Can you see any timeline for a turn around or should I be sucking it up and putting it in something else? Was looking at LIFE-T as a safety measure but wondering if you have some other suggestions.
Thank you for what you do for us
