Q: Can you suggest solid companies that may have their prices depressed by tax loss selling and might be good buys this year?

Q: I sold my holdings in MX more than 30 days ago intending to buy in agail as I think the company has been unfairly beaten up. Considering tax loss selling, a spike seems remote unless they report amazing results on Oct 30. Do you think its too early to jump back in? Would it be prudent to to wait until maybe mid November. The charts are really unhelpful but it is above its 50 day moving average.

Q: Good morning 5i. My TFSA has re-trenched from a high of 108 k down to the low 90k's. My holdings were all good growth stocks but gone are TOY, SIS, NFL P.B.. I will jettison CAE this week. So I'm left with Go Easy, Boyd, and Kinaxis with a lot of cash. I will ad Bama, and Atd.B. Can you suggest 5 more dividend payers with some growth prospects for a 3 to 5 year hold. Many thanks .david

Q: It is a shame that you have published the following nasty question : ''With the Bloc doing so well in the election and the PM sure to lavish our taxes their way, what companies generate a lot of income from Quebec, and/or are candidates for charity ? Thanks.'' It does not seem to be an intelligent and respectful discussion.

Q: Hi Team,

I am looking to do a covered call strategy on growth stocks you like that have reasonably liquid options markets and high implied vol. What are your five favourite "long-term hold" CAD and USD stocks where such a strategy could be implemented?

Was looking at AYX as an example where you can create some interesting downside protection scenarios selling 1yr calls at strikes approximately 10% higher than current price that still give you a 20-35% total return if the stock rips higher through your strike.

Thanks

Q: Three months ago a .20 EPS quarter sent GSB to the $14's. Today, a .19 EPS quarter sent GSB to the $9's. Sales are up from last year, Gross Margin is up from last year, Costs are coming down, EPS is up over last year. They have zero debt, $13M in the bank, excellent FCF and high insider ownership. I can't see a problem with this company at all. Is the drop a "sell on news" story. The stock can be volatile and is a small cap security. Is it buyable in your opinion at these levels?
