Q: Hi Folks,
I've held BNS in my RRSP account for a couple of years now. I also hold TD. I am breaking even with BNS, would this be a good time to switch to RY. I realize there is a difference in the dividend but I am looking 5-10 years down the road.
Thanks

Q: Hi Group is it true that Blackrock has put restrictions on withdrawal of funds (cash) from investments. For a company of this size and magnitude to restrict withdrawals is extremely worrisome. Can you please comment assuming this info is correct (I heard it on BNN last week) Hopefully if true we will not start to see a run on banks and other financial intuitions. When people start withdrawing cash and putting under their pillows causing panic i would be more that a little concerned? Your thought are much appreciated

Q: What is your "impression" ..Canadian banks used to be a very "safe heaven" for dividend investors ,nevertheless more loans will be at significant risk with increased interest rates, and with upcoming renewals of mortgages in 2023.Will the big Canadian banks (and insurance Cies) see even more drops of their share prices ,and most important: could they become at risk of dividend cuts ? In other words,as a dividend investor should I keep financial stocks and ETF or sell according to the present tendency? Thanks J-Y

Q: I am new to the forum and 5I. Thanks for your great information! I wish I had subscribed earlier.
Can you give me a long term chart on the value and or return for these 2 ETFs? Because of the different dividends it is hard for me to value the two investments. Do you have a preference?
Thanks again
Richard

Q: These are my candidates for tax loss selling. As a proxy for OKTA I intend to add to my existing position in CRWD, would you agree with that strategy? As for the other 3, I do not intend to buy proxies however I would consider repurchasing after 30 days. Do you suggest proxies for these 3? Also, would you repurchase. Thank you.

Q: I realize this stock has been beat up. looking to add a bank stock. Looking for a dividend stock for the long term. Should move on it now or wait until the dust settles. Or the other bank I'm considering is BNS. It's been the laggard for a while.
Looking forward to your comments.

Q: I am still somewhat confused about the ‘due bill’ trading status of BAM.A as described by the 5i team today. When exactly will BAM.A trade at a price reflecting the spinoff of BN? Geoff

Q: 5i Team, could you comment on following related to ECN, I have a full position on ECN averaging around 10% above current levels. I plan to double down on ECN in another registered account at this level, please comment

On a scale 1 to 10 what are the chances this stock going to zero, like what happen to XBC recently
Current ECN price levels are due to market sentiment to the stock or tax loss selling
On a scale 1 (riskier) to 10 (rewarding) what do you recommend members do at this price level
