When do you believe people will be buying for 2022? Have they been buying a little, normal or above average going into 2022?

Q: Hello Team,

Do you have a list of three top DEFIBRILLATOR Maker publicly traded companies that are good investments (I suspect they will all be US and European Companies)?

Thank you,

Q: You didn't really answer Ian's question about how brokers make money.


When I started trading the commissions were 3% with a minimum of $50. They have slowly made their way to zero with some brokers up here in Canada. How are these brokers making their money?

Q: So I looked at my returns at the end of July and my TFSA was up 39% in 7 months. I'd have taken that as a decent return over 48 to 60 months. So early this week before the DnD acquisition and the Nuvei short report I sold DCBO, DnD, LSPD , because my 39% return was nullified. My thought was to add 3 of the 4 TOI,TSU,TFII,or TCN . Should I add 3 of the 4 and top up KXS and GSY in the new year or add all 4 of the T's?

Q: Good Saturday morning 5i Team. I've held Expi for approx 18 months it started out like a rocket but seems to be in the penalty box since the split. I see a new real estate play REAX-Q gaining some early traction. Do I stay the course with Expi, own both or move on. My position is in a TFSA, do I buy REAX as a Canadian or U.S. holding? Best of the season and as always thanks for your good council. David

Q: My TFSA has too many holdings (with various weightings from 3 to 13%), and there appear to be some good buying opportunities at the moment with some of these. I quite like all of these stocks and need some help identifying which 5 or 6 to sell and which 5 or 6 to buy with sale proceeds (those which have been most punished for no good reason and fundamentals are still sound).

AAPL, ATA, BAM.A, ENPH, GSY, KXS, MMX, PBH, SIS, SHOP, TFII, VEEV, WELL, WSP

So far all I’ve come up with is

One on the chopping block: cleanup small position: MMX – also it strikes me as neither a growth nor income stock.

Definite keepers: ATA, ENPH, TFI, WSP (all seem to be thriving)

Thanks

Jim

Q: I recently sold my full positions in both of these banks and realized significant capital gains to use as income in my RRIF. Most big banks stocks have climbed since increasing their dividends so I'm not sure which one or two to buy next. I have done well over the years by buying the laggards, collecting dividends and waiting for conditions to improve. Which relatively poor performers would you suggest I consider next and why?

Q: Hi, I am interested in learning more about options trading. While I’ve dabbled with it for years, (selling puts and calls and buying calls), I have a very superficial understanding in this area. Are there any courses you could recommend excluding those that require prerequisites. Thank you.

Q: If the ECN dividend is setup as a DRIP, how is the price of the new purchased shares determined? Is it end of day value or is there a price guarantee of some sort? I guess what I'm wondering is, will the automatic purchase of new shares from the special dividend effect the market value of the shares on the dividend payout date?
