Investment Q&A

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

Q: So let's imagine late Monday that our PM strides to the stage with a self-congratulatory grin and our NDP friends again are restored to a power broker status - can increased cap gains taxes really be far off (rhetorical question) - so you generally say don't act based on tax change assumptions but really why not take some gains now and bite the likely lessor bullet - if there's a say 12% or so additional tax bite on the horizon you need some generous gains ahead to compensate - thoughts Peter?? And if one does some selling and cementing of gains would you then recommend some safer income plays for the cash raised until there is more clarity surrounding markets - appreciate your input - Ken

Q: Hi 5i, this is in response to Paul's question on getting historical dividend information.

I've been using this link: https://dividendgrowthinvestingandretirement.com/canadian-dividend-all-star-list/, I find very informative especially if you are looking for dividend companies that have survived the last two recessions with increasing dividends.

Enjoy!
