Q: I have two questions re: tax loss selling. I have a three year old gain that I can offset by selling the above holdings.

1. First please help me with the math. If I buy a stock for $100, sell it for $90, I have a loss of $10 which would mean I can expect a $2.50 tax loss at a 25% rate. Does this mean that if I wanted to buy the stock back after 30 days, I would only be better off if I buy it back at less than 92.50 per share? Do you have a threshold whereby you must be down by a certain amount to justify a tax loss sale? e.g. 20%? Unless of course you are walking away from a company.

2. Which of the companies listed would you consider buying back after 30 days? I have too many holdings as it is so may just let them all go unless something is particularly interesting. I am overweight technology, underweight everything else but otherwise have a broad mix of funds and stocks.

Q: Hello 5i
Please rank these companies for 2-3 year growth and in which order you would buy them if you had a fairly high risk tolerance.
Thank you
Dave

Q: Morning, what are your latest thoughts on AFRM, the recent quarter and potential going forward? Management is strong, profitability is around the corner, recession fears are abating... Is the debt an issue? Would you be bullish on the company now?

Q: Hi, Could you please comment on Affirm earnings. Thank you

Q: I am down 80% of UPST ( avg price $149) and 50% down on AFRM (avg price $75), both in registered accounts.

Any chance of breaking even in the next 12 - 18 months or is it time to move on?

Q: For a 3 year hold, how would you rate these stocks, 1 means "forget it", 10 means "high growth expected": Nvei.to, shop.to, payfare.to, LSPD.to, PayPal, afrm, upst?

If possible, what would be a good entry price? Thanks

Q: Hello, I am down 25%+ on all of these companies and looking to do some tax loss selling prior to yearend. Can you order these companies in terms of what you would sell first? Would you rank these companies as Sells or Holds (or even Buys)? I am a long term investor, not a trader, so I'm hesitant to sell only to rebuy later, or to average down. I have some ability to do a tax loss carry back to recoup some of my losses from prior years (plus minimize my 2023 taxes).

Q: Hello 5i,
Given that interest rates appear to have peaked, please rank the above list for:
1. Growth only
2. Your buying preference.
Thank you
Dave
