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 noticed that you have started to recommend TT in the last month or so and it has also appeared on your disclosure list when asked about US stocks. Can you tell me what about this company makes you recommend it when it is at close to a 40xp/e in the industrial sector. I am thinking of replacing SIS with it as I am overweight Canadian stocks and underweight US stocks according to portfolio analytics.

Q: I am deploying a lump sum and I had an initial 1% position if LSPD bought at $56 in middle of November. I am up close to 40%. I know they signed a new deal in the U.S. yesterday and there's good momentum. Should I take my quick profits or let the value of the stock build. I originally was planning to build a 3% in LSPD over time. Its tough given the valuation is so high, but may go higher or may be much lower in a correction.

Thanks,
Jason

Q: Hello Peter and Team,

Looking to for an inflation hedge for my Son's mother in law. She just sold her house and has all her money in cash. She isn't very comfortable with investing so gold won't work. We are slowly putting her TSFA contribution in VBAL as we need some growth for the future (approx. 25% of the cash), but that is all she is comfortable with investing. What are your thoughts on ZRR? Is there any other product you would recommend as an inflation hedge?

Q: REITs and REIT ETFs: You do not recommend REITs in unregistered accounts nor in RRSP, is it OK to have REIT ETF instead of REIT in unregistered account in order to do easier calculations if selling ,concerning income tax declaration : I use only the T3 or T5 provided by the bank, is it OK then ? 2) Concerning RRSP the tax rate is usually not high when we are retired since salary is lower so s it OK to have some REITs or REIT ETF in my RRSP?

Q: I'm relatively new to directly investing in stocks. With the help of the 5i resources and the community QA resource I am well on the way to building a portfolio. I am noticing that stocks seem to have outsized reactions to news or no news fairly regularly. I am hoping you may be able to recommend a book and other resources that will give me insight into the behavioural side to investing.
