Q: Hi Team, We hold CNR and BIP.UN in our TFSA accounts and would like to free up space for other holdings from our non-registered account. We hold AMZN, BAM'A, CSU, GOOG, and QCOM in a non-registered account. If we switch out CNR and BIP.UN before Dec. 31 will we be able to transfer in some of the non-registered holdings in 2022? If so, in which order would you rank the non-registered holdings to take advantage of the TFSA account?
Would it be better to replace BIP.UN with BIPC in the non-registered account?
Thanks

Q: I am losing patience with LWRK. I bought it as as steady-eddy stock with some growth and a reasonable dividend. Although I'm still up some 26% ( in a non-registered account), I'm down 40% from a year ago. Please comment on recent earnings, headwinds from the recent rebranding, and any other factors that may be holding this stock back.

Thinking of foregoing the dividend and replacing LWRK with CSU or SHOP to make up for my paper loss. Is it time to bail? And if so, which of these two stocks would you recommend I purchase today? Thank you.

Q: Thanks for your insights in structuring the TFSA for 2022 and going forward, dated October 26, 2022. To transition to the new "alignment", I will need to transfer a number of Technology stock positions, see above, to a trading account, or sell....and I would like your take on this matter as the intention is to transition is DSG and NVDA.
The present TFSA is tilted, well more than that, like 45% + to tech positions, including VEEV. As the TFSA is tilted to growth-eee positions which ones would be better now held in a trading account, aka lower growth going forward....or if there are any that are no longer high conviction, please let me know....Thanks for all the sound/solid insights......Tom

Q: Hello Peter,
What are Nvei's and CSU's estimates? Also, for lower volumes stocks like csu, and topicus, how does a manager sell them? For example, I was trying to sell 10 shares of csu at price x and 100 shares of toi at price y, i placed a limit order for a period of time. On many occasions, the stock hit those limit prices, but i never got them filled. I checked with the brokerage and i was informed that there were not many shares traded at that time so did not fill. Hence, how would a large institution sell a large block when a retail person can't even fill smaller shares due to lower volumes.. What would you suggest a sell or buy strategy for lower volume shares? Thanks very much

Q: Hello Team,
Could you rank these three securities for growth going forward. Would you expect Constellation to continue to grow as it has in the past, given it's now large size. I would expect it to be the safest of the three. Your comments on that as well please.
Thank You,
Barry
