Q: I want to get into gold stocks and have always preferred Franco Nevada in the past. Should I look at buying some of it now, and what other companies would you recommend to complement it if I do? (In the same sector) Thanks
Q: Today is the last day for tax loss selling they say. Is this only for stocks or also for options' positions? Should one sell one's positions even if the option expiry date is in Jan to take a loss and re-enter in Jan 24? New to the options writing. Sorry for posting this question during this holiday season. Answer it if you deem this as urgent.
Happy Healthy Peaceful and Prosperous New Year!

Q: Is there any play here is some of these hammered REITs like Slate Office? It just cut the dividend, now trades for pennies. How risky is it to conclude that at some point it will restart a dividend as rates are being cut and office properties increase in value, and you would see the share price rise?
Q: No rush to answer
My intent is to use from my investment account into my TFSA either one of the following TFII or GSY.

Q: I am concerned about the US political situation. Should Trump manage to win the upcoming election and the US loses its democracy, I fear that this will not be good for the financial markets. Do you know what the results were in other countries that elected far right political parties? I have a sizable portfolio that is almost 50% weighted to the US. I would like to know how to prepare for this possibility short of selling all our US investments. Thank you
Q: Given the apparent push by gov't towards increased home construction, which companies do you see as best positioned to for a buy and hold investor ?
Thank you and happy holidays to the team
Q: Christmas Greetings 5i Team!
I've owned Parkland Fuel for about 10 years now, and lately the stock's done very well. With the new EV sales mandates announced by the Federal gov't, would you continue to own a company whose main business is gas stations and fuel distribution? I'm thinking most people who can afford EV's are also likely to own a single-family homes and will charge at home. Of course, there is also the possibility that these sales mandates will be scrapped with a change in gov't in two years' time. Is it best to sell now, wait to see what happens in the next election, or continue to hold long term?
Many thanks,
Brian
Q: What is your dividend and share price growth opinion on these 2 over the next 12 months? It seems that their primary revenue source is selling data which provides limited growth. They seem to have lost out on the content distribution sector and I don't see new growth areas for them. Where do you think their growth will come from? I currently hold both (which is not good) and am considering selling both. I had originally invested for share price growth and dividends.
Q: Do you think that bonds from Brookfield property are at material risk of default? If I am understanding financial press, their credit ratings have dropped. But their values have gone up more than 5% recently.
Q: Do you think there will be a dip first week of January when people take some profits and don't have to pay the taxes until 2025? Should one sell some stock if they're in registered accounts next week and take advantage of this?
Thanks
