Investment Q&A

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

Q: I have been invested in this company for many years. I'm receiving a small dividend that was cut in half several years ago. Over the years they have changed their primary operation from a patent troll to an investment corporation. They even won a court case over Apple (patent infringements) but have yet to be compensated. Are you aware of any positive corporate actions that may make Quarterhill more investable over the next few years. They are reporting next week and I am concerned that things may not have gone as well
as expected. Would you continue to hold on or would you throw in the towel.

Q: Hello 5i what are your thoughts on PINS, SPOT, ATVI and RBLX recent declines, I think all are overreactions for varying reasons (ATVI/RBLX getting dragged down with China crackdown on gaming, PINS USA MAU declined but everything else looks good, SPOT ... not sure what really changed here but it took a huge dive..) I like to buy a stock I know and follow anytime there is an overreaction like this. I know ATVI has culture issues with female harrasment and that has dragged them down as well but I don't really see how any of these stocks trajectory/themes have really changed all that much. How do you view these 4 stocks?

Q: re: Moez's Jun 29/2021 article on "Canadian Stocks that pay US dividends: Could you confirm your understanding to be that in order to receive in US dollars, the US $ dividend that these Cdn Stocks issue, that the Cdn stocks must be journaled over to an equivalent US$ account (eg Cdn $ TFSA to US$ TFSA, or Cdn $ RRIF to US$ RRIF)? My brokerage says this is what must be done and that they will not charge any currency exchange premium on this). And, if that is done for Cdn stocks held in either a TFSA (US $ )account or a RRIF (US$) account that there will be no US tax withheld on dividends ?
Many thanks in advance for clarifying .
