Investment Q&A

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

Q: I am trying build a list of buy and forget core stocks for each sector. I hold the following utilities in various accounts: FTS, BIPC, BEPC, AQN, NEE, BLX, NPI. Can you please rank these for safety and also for growth. I hold BLX in a corp account because it has the lowest yield - do you see BLX as a long term buy and forget stock? Thanks.

Q: Hello,

I am concerned holding BAM into the spin. Historically the lesser attractive piece has sold off substantially during the spin (e.g. bbu.un, bip.un, bep.un).

Do you think the same will happen here with the asset heavy business selling off and people gravitating to the manager?

Q: Good afternoon,

I'm planning to sell BNS for tax loss selling and will buy BAM.A with the funds. I'm also planning to sell a put (about 3-6 months out) on BNS for the purpose of collecting the premium. From what I can tell, this would not be an issue on the tax loss side given that I don't necessarily get to buy the shares, correct? I'd also be ok with having to rebuy if called.

Please let me know if there's anything else I should consider wrt this idea.

Thank you for this service, as usual,
Lisa

Q: Can you provide a 'buy' list for a person wanting to deploy $200,000 (inside RRSP) with the goal of creating 5% or more sustained cash flow - as well as growing the original capital to keep up with inflatiion? We do not have company pensions - this would serve to supplement our government pensions.
Thinking, 20 stocks across all sectors @ $10,000 each (or 5%)
Also could you include 10 growth stocks (inside TFSA) for a total of $250,000 - gotta have some fun ;)
Many Thanks
Jan

Q: Hi 5i, The FED seems to monitor lagging indicators for policy decisions. Could you give your views on these indicators and also provide a better, leading indicator for investors to follow. And links to these indicators would also be great.

Thx again for your sanity in a insane market!

Q: In my holding company trading account with a year-end of Oct 31, I plan to sell these losers in the next few days to offset earlier capital gains. I expect that these companies may drop even further during the tax loss selling season. Do you see any potential for any of these companies that might lead me to buy back the shares after 30 days?
