Q: I have been fortunate enough to retire before my husband and we live off of his salary. Currently I have over $1M in Registered trading accounts. In this scenario, is it typically better for a person to start taking money out of their RRSP when they have no income, and then move these funds to an unregistered trading account to grow, or is it better to leave this money in a registered account, take a large tax hit later, and let it grow sheltered until needed? As always, your comments are very much appreciated.

Q: With respect to a plan to sell ENGH, a recent question said “ Recently Ceo left,and in my humble opinion,the whole Board should be gone too.” In fact it was the president Vince Mifsud who left and the CEO Steve Sadler is still there. Personally, I am adding to my position in ENGH as it is hard to find asset-light businesses with no debt, lots of cash and generating more each quarter, paying a 3.33% yield and with a 15% return on invested capital. IMHO investors should focus on owning quality businesses and trust management to prudently grow the business. Who knows why Mifsud left? I trust Mr. Sadler to wisely invest the surplus cash as opportunities arise.

Q: A few days ago Caisse stated it will support Atd in acquisition of 7&I. Aritsan,a major shareholder of 7&I encouraged negotiations with Atd instead of reorganization. This resulted in Atd's rise of $1.20. It appears that the Japanese Gov't will block a take over,however it may allow sale of the N.American stores. Atd has dropped quite sharply since initial offer.In view of foregoing,is it timely to buy/add Atd.What is a good entry price? Txs for u usual great services & views

Q: Hello,
Uber and CRWD have grown nicely to reach levels of 10%+ in my portfolio. I know that you cannot personalize but so my question is whether a prudent move with companies like these are to let them run completely or pare down to a comfortable number. If lightening is preferred, what would be optimal? If one or the other is safer to keep at a high % please feel free to answer separately for each.

Q: Lots of good Q&A lately on parking short term cash.

I have $100K to invest. Are one of these more suitable than the others for quickly withdrawing an amount as required when I want to purchase stocks or equity ETF's?

Would you feel comfortable putting the whole amount in any one of these, or is it best to diversify a bit?

Do you have a recommended USD version(s) for my USD account ?
