Q: Good Morning.
I like the momentum and your positive comments on XBC. In an effort to establish a position in XBC I can add new money to an unregistered account or sell DOL and COV in my TFSA or TSGI and CLIQ in my RRSP.
This may be a too specific question with regards to my portfolio so in the alternative do you have more conviction in XBC than the other for companies at present?
Thank you

Q: Hi !
I am looking for a way to eventually get out of TSGY with minimal loss. In my present situation, I see no advantage to increase the capital losses in my portfolio. I am holding 270 shares of TSGI bought at $45.93 which gives me a 32% loss presently.
Buying more shares of TSGI now, let us say 130, would allow me to reduce my loss if I can sell at a higher price later.
What do you think of such a scenario and on the potential of appreciation of TSGI in the future ?

Gratefully,
Jacques, IDS

Q: Good Afternoon,
I currently hold some TSGI shares in my TFSA and with the recent rally I'm almost back to even ( I know not a great investment strategy trying to break even). With the concern of increased regulatory risk around the takeover I am considering selling and jumping into QSR? According to the charts looks like support is in the $86 range and could turn around and challenge the recent high of around $106? If it breaks this could run to $128 technically speaking. The name looks interesting with Burger King and Popeye's, not so much Tim Horton's. Thoughts on this as a trade? Or perhaps sell TSGI and get into IPL or ENB, ENB looks like it's breaking out?
Thank-you

Q: After reading your most recent comments on the TSGI/FLTR transaction, I checked with my broker about the possibility of selling FLTR after the transaction closes in Q3 2020. My broker doesn't handle anything but CDN and USA stock exchanges. You've suggested that selling TSGI nearer the closing date (a year from now) might carry increased risk of share decline. That said, should I sell my $10k investment fairly soon, or sit and wait a while? Thanks.

Q: Any news if they will trade on the canadian exchange. I am interested in holding this gambling/sports book stock as I think government fiscal pressures will generally be a boon for the industry. I am not interested in holding an british company and their foreign tax implications. Any suggestions when to sell and where I should be able to have this same play on the toronto exchange if they don't cross list. I am grateful for your informative service.
ps can you re check that you have my proper email address. I see you answered my previous question but did not email to advised as you used to.
