Q: I own stocks with a broker in my TFSA. I also hold both Canadian and USA registered stocks. Can I put registered stocks in my TFSA? If so what is the process?

Q: I know that 5i has not generally recommended these split corp funds but I would like your take in this scenario. We know they bottom when asset value drops below an acceptable number and this has occurred. I recall years ago the same thing happened and yields disappeared and values plummeted. When the market bounced back however each roughly doubled and paid lucrative dividends until of course the next major downturn. My question given that we all expect new highs some day, is whether these would not be nice tuck ins today that will eventually appreciate if not double and begin paying great dividends?

Q: I'm looking to convert a RESP invested in mutual fund (chorus II agressive growth) to lower fees and menage it more actively. Kids are 5 and 2 years old.

I was thinking to diversify with 3 or 4 ETF for 70% of this portfolio. What are your thoughts about a combinaison of VFV, XIC, XIT, ZQQ and DXG for long term? Do you have better suggestions?

Althought, is investing in XIT and ZQQ and DXG a good idea on short term since tech valuation is already high at this moment compared to other sectors?

For the rest of portfolio (30%), i would go with stocks. What would be your top 4 on short term (next 6-12 months) and on long term?

Q: Hi there, in the context of unintended consequences I find that Roots shareholders may benefit in the near to mid term. Closing stores(unfortunately appears to help their business model profitability) and having their new D.C. (e-commerce channel)become more reliable and more efficient is beneficial. Strong brand and quality product all looking good. Is their balance sheet and liquidity strong enough to come out the other end of the Covid crisis? Thx Chris

Q: What are your top 5 dividend stock ideas? Perhaps ones that haven't rebounded yet that have a good yield, or that have had recent results that showed resiliency and have room to run. For example, you have been been right in recommending BEP.UN, however, it has had a big run. Do you carte blanche keep recommending even after it's big run or is there a better relative buy?

Q: What one would you buy today for long term hold, total return in 5-10 years. Hard to imagine CU having any trouble continuing to grow the dividend with one of the longest track records in Canada. Already own FTS,AQN,BEP in other accounts this would be for an alternate account or should I just stick with adding more of the 3 already owned.
Thank you
