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 been looking to buy a bit more Goeasy in a young adult's TFSA, on the current weakness. I tend to buy based on fundamentals, but I sometimes use technicals to time buys and sells. Today my long standing buy order got filled, near the end of a sharply down day. Do you feel that GSY has broken support here and there is more downside to come? And do you think the decline is just general market negativity, or is there more to it, i.e. are the technicals reflecting a fundamental change? I am not too concerned, as this will be a long term hold, but would like your thoughts if you would be comfortable buying GSY at these levels.
With appreciation,
Ed

Q: I am sitting on a 31% loss in Photon Control in my Margin Account. I am considering harvesting the tax loss and re-purchasing in my TFSA after 30 days. Does this seem a reasonable strategy especially since PHO will likely take some time to turn around in this market? Alternately, if I don't sell the shares but move them to my TFSA will that trigger a tax loss? This only seems fair since if I had an unrealized capital gain I would have a deemed disposition and a tax liability.

Q: I'm one of those investors that has trouble selling things at a loss. I'll get over it some time...maybe? However, with Crius you answered a question yesterday that even with a 50% cut in the dividend it's still at 8% +/-. Can you comment further. I'd be happy with an 8% dividend and would be prepared for a long term hold until the company 'comes around' with their divesting of the solar side. What am I not seeing?
Thanks...Graham

Q: Greetings,

1. Long term investing implications of liberalisation moves, as suggested by Ontario Doug Ford? Specifically on the selling of alcohol? Other Provinces may follow especially since the regulation is archaic.

2. Alcanna - The price point and yield are compelling but is the Company in danger of liberalisation and does the integration with Cannabis help to diversify its sales?

3. Start nibbling on CLIQ soon or avoid because of the above mentioned uncertainties?

Many thanks!
