Investment Q&A

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

Q: In your response to Brian about ETF and market panic, you say that in a market panic an ETF might have to sell a stock to meet rememptions (kind of guess you meant redemptions !?). Could you explain further? I thought if individuals panicked and sold their ETF, some other individuals would be the buyers, rather than the ETF having to do anything re holdings, and that the total shares outstanding would not change. Isn't this part of what separates an ETF from a mutual fund?
Thank you

Q: Hi 5i,

I noticed that both ZCL (3.68%) and SIS (2.56%) have decent sized dividends for relatively growth oriented companies. Assuming I have flexibility amongst my registered and non-registered accounts would you recommend these two stocks being in my non-registered account to benefit from the dividend tax credit or in my registered accounts given the higher growth rates of these companies?

Thanks as always,

Jon

Q: Hello, I am interested in a comparison of GC and TSGI. I own TSGI, and I am comfortable with it, but now that you have put it into the BE I am wondering if I should sell half and take a position in GC, or sell all of TSGI and take a position in GC with the proceeds.
Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i, today with the Canada EU free trade agreement taking effect there is a 20% export tariff on canadian seafood to the EU coming off. I would think that this should be a very good thing for both clr and hlf and with both stocks fairly beaten up at this time do you think that this is a good time to initiate a position in either one of these stocks or both, what would be your preference and would would be an appropriate weighting disregarding asset allocation ? 3-5%?

thanks Tom
