Investment Q&A

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

Q: Covered Calls on positions held like: CDN Banks, BCE & T etc. I have never considered this strategy before; but, I am now. Reading up on it and would appreciate any comments/suggestions?

Selling covered calls on positions one has to earn extra income. I’ve been reading about it and it seems as though it is not something I should try? I noticed some ETFs do it to increase income payouts.

Thank you

What other companies does officers have a financial interest in? Don't see this too often on questions? Are you only invested in American names?

Private question but you can answer publically if you wish

Q: US bank stress test.

I read about the recent stress test results. Apparently results in general are not great.
Apparently Wells Fargo may cut their dividend next quarter and JPM opened the door by saying it was possibility they too could cut in the future. Never heard of such from the Canadian banks.

I have 20% of my total RRSP portfolio in JPM, Bank America, and Bank of New York Mellon.

They big US banks in general performed very well since the financial recession but now I wonder for the future?

Q: Tech companies are at all time high, it feels that we are again reaching a tech bubble. Is it time to lighten-up on tech companies/ funds/ETFs. What are the signs of reaching bubbles and how does this compare to previous cases of sector bubbles?

Thanks
