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

Q: I have taken a loss on shares which I own of the Stars Group (TSG) in my US investment account. If I sell these shares, and then immediately buy the Stars Group (TSGI) shares for my Canadian investment account, am I still allowed to deduct my tax loss from my US account? In other words, are the US shares (TSG) and the Canadian shares (TSGI) considered unique for the purpose of tax deduction on a loss? Thank you.

Q: Either way, I suspect Kinaxis will be a horror show. today. However, for the purposes of assessing its Q3 performance, isn't the eps number, 19 cents, not 10 cents as was mentioned in a previous answer this morning.

"Prior to the effect of the Standards, Profit for the third quarter of 2018 was $5.2 million ($0.19 per diluted share), compared to $6.0 million ($0.23 per diluted share)".

Thanks.

Q: I have a full 5% position in NFI. I understand the market likes to react to expectations and I’m ok with this. A 13% drop today was too much in my opinion so I picked up a few shares.
My question is about volume. NFI is a 2.4 billion market cap company and approx. 1 million shares traded today being roughly $39 million.
Such a small % of market cap I see the drop today as irrelevant to the real share value.
So back to my question, is there a point where volume as a % of market value is something to guide us in either a down or up market? And I’m looking not as a trader but a long term investor.
I hope you understand the question.
Thanks
John
