Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hello Peter,
I hope this does not reduce my credits as it is a general question which i am sure other members would appreciate having an answer... I find overall the TD webbroker has many issues where one cannot log in at times. Today, it has been down a good part of the morning.. What avenues do investors have as we could be losing a substantial sum if we want to sell or buy stocks and the site is down at times.. There has to be some accountability for trading platforms. If these are not the type of questions relevant for this site, please let me know. Thanks in advance.

Q: I am intending to sell SNC to crystallize a tax loss (early I know) but want to stay in the sector should the Feds suddenly decide to throw $$ at infrastructure. What do you suggest buying as a proxy in the meantime with the thought of buying back SNC after 30 days? I have WSP and a little ARE now and could possibly add to one or both. Not re-puchasing SNC is another option. Thanks you in anticipation.

Q: To contribute to TFSA Can we deposit us $ or have TD WATERHOUSE (IN MY CASE)
Convert after depositing in Canadian Dollars?
Other places have better rates than bank in Exchange.

Q: Hello 5i,
You have just stated that QSR is not your favourite stock but "ok" for income and some growth. So far I am up $5000 since you included it in your Income Portfolio (not including dividends) and happy for it! So if it is not your favourite, why isn't it excluded from the the IP and a "favourite" included instead? What mght that "favourite" income stock be?

Q: Kxs has been drifting lower for the past few weeks. Comments?
Also, in response to today’s question from John asking you to rate TFSA stocks for a 5 year hold your answer didn’t include KXS as he requested. Could you revisit this response please.

Q: Good morning 5i team!

I am considerably underweight in healthcare stocks. I do own Well, and I have considered Doc. I was wondering your thoughts on Personalis as I do not see any questions relating to this company. Thank you for your great service.

Q: I'd like your opinion about DOCU. The stock peaked SEP 1, 2020 and since then the past 4 months+ have been lower -- repeatedly dipping below $200 USD in this volatile market. The previous four months (before SEP 1) resulted in a gain of 154% in stock price. My question: I'm up 63% on this stock. Should I sell and move on? Thing is, I like the product as a consumer, and have already been e-mailed several docs to sign using that app. Works great. Yet I wonder if it's going to become a pandemic orphan -- and might suffer the same fate that could beset ZOOM when this pandemic ends.

Q: I am looking to "trim the fat" from my TFSA, which currently holds 20 stocks: ATD, BCE, BMO, BNS, CCO, CM, ENB, FFH, PDYPF, INO.UN, LAS, NXE, NWC, NA, NTR, PEY, PZA, MJJ, TRP, WELL. Are there any positions that raise red flags with you? In addition, could you suggest 3 or 4 value picks suitable for a long-term hold (20 years plus)?
Thank you!
