Q: Regarding articles by Peter in the Financial Post, the answer to David on Nov 26 suggested "Note to Members without a subscription, we do also publish these articles in our blog section." I have looked at the Blog page today (and look at it fairly regularly) but don't see the article then referred to or any others. Can you pls point me to where I should be looking? Thanks

Q: I have owned BCE & T for a very long time. Even with BCE dividend cut I am up a lot (including dividends paid). T is in the doldrums and share price is stagnant. Should I sell these two and buy CGO: low payout ration ROE of 10% but a ton on debt. CGO up a lot this year! Or, sell T and BCE and not buy CGO. I am 77 YO. T & BCE are a small % of total portfolio.

Q: I am an 80 year old value investor. In a diversified portfolio in all sectors, covered call ETF's as per above, make up 10% of my portfolio. I am satisfied with that and all but two are up. 30% of holdings are ETF's including the covered calls.
QUESTION:1. Am I holding too many covered call ETF's? They seem to take the stairs up and the elevator down faster than single stocks. 2. Is it supposed that the covered call ETF's will plunge faster than the single stocks in an expected steep correction?
Thank you

Q: Hi, can you give me a top level summary of the differences between Mutual Funds and ETF's? And which would you prefer when choosing funds to allocate dollars to the Global Market?

Thank-you!

Q: How would you rank these for growth? I own GLXY and NBIS already. GLXY is 3.5% and NBIS 1.62% position. I could add more to NBIS or start new positions in either CIFR, IREN, HUT or HIVE. I see you recently started a new position in HIVE, but assuming you could choose between all of these companies, how would you compare or rank HIVE to HUT, IREN and CIFR as new AI/HPC plays from bitcoin miners? Thanks!

Q: Hi. I have tried a couple times to submit this question now...

My kids have a family RESP. Oldest child will be starting post-secondary in 9 years.

Currently have GLXY, BN, SIS and T.
What will be good holdings to add to this? If sector diversification is not taken into consideration, what will be good to add?

Thank you.

Q: Regarding Steve's question on Nov 25, 2025 about the TFSA withdrawal and re-contribution limit.

Using his example, if one were to withdraw $122,000 today, could one re-contribute $40,000 in '26 then $40,000 in '27 then $42,000 in '28 or does the re-contribution rule only apply to the following year and ONLY the following year?

Q: Dear 5i,

I have a diverse portfolio with stocks and ETFs. Most of my portfolio is doing well. Want to know your thoughts about a few of my holdings that are not doing so well - Adobe, Nike, Accenture, TMO, IDXX and Telus.

What are your thoughts? Should I replace these with a US ETF or hold on. Thanks for your valuable advice as always.

Q: I own Canadian Utilities and Atco Class 1 shares and they have appreciated nicely over time. How would you rate their prospects for growth in share price for the next 5 years?

With today's economic climate with the US, and the Canadian government's stated intention to push for big Canadian infrastructure projects, would one of these companies be a stronger bet?

Do you see the current dividend level as being safe for both companies going forward?

And, is there a good reason to own both of these stocks, given that CU is a sub of Atco?

Thank you for you insight and have a great day!
