Q: I can book a tax loss on BCE (never thought I would be saying that), just wondering if I intend to buy it back in 30 days would RCI be an ok placeholder (Telus already owned) or placeholder not needed and just wait the 30 days in cash? (brokerage fees not a consideration). Thanks,

Q: I purchased Baylin technologies based on a BNN guest pumping up the stock that it has world class technology and will payout over time but patience is required. Baylin now has a rights offering at $0.19 per share to existing shareholder and the current price is $0.175. The stock has been a Big Dog. What's your take on the stock ..... Is there any hope for Baylin ..... would you but this stock or should I dump the Dog and move on.
Thanks DAN

Thanks folks

Q: Hello Peter,
I own TSLA shares mostly due to Elon Musk's innovation in the EV and other areas.. Given that he is always in the spot light (not always positive), do you think it is time to bail out or is the publicity just noise for now and will go away eventually . I am guessing it will be a rocky ride, but like to have your opinion given your experience in the industry. .. thanks very much

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I keep hearing that purchasing bonds is currently a generational opportunity given how elevated interest rates currently are and we are likely at the peak point of the rate cycle. How would you recommend approaching having exposure to bonds in order to capitalize on the opportunity?

Are there any other sectors or areas of opportunity that are out there that you think one should get exposure to in preparation of interest rates eventually coming down?

Thanks as always,
Jon

Q: Good morning.

I am down 35% on CSW.A with an effective yield of 4.4% on the purchase price. It is my cash account.

Is there really any point in continuing to hold this one? From reading answers to previous questions it does not appear there is any significant growth potential.

I think it would be best to take the capital loss and buy a BNS, BCE or ENB. Even with the loss I would make more income.

Your thoughts please.

Thanks.
