Investment Q&A

Q: My son is a 22 year old student who would like to start investing his money. He has $2000 to invest within a TFSA and intends to add annually with a long term outlook (he doesn't need the money). Could you please suggest some options that are growth oriented (not averse to risk) and some safer dividend payers, either in Canada or the US?

Q: Your thoughts on BBU

Q: Small TFSA started last year and now looking at bringing it up to the maximum with contributions this year and beginning of next year. Would like to try and grow it towards $100,000 and then in about 4 years transition more to income producing holdings to augment pensions. Could you please comment on the current holdings listed below and suggest where to top up, replace or add and to what %. Prefer Canadian holdings to avoid U.S. tax issues.
Many thanks as always

Q: Do you think WEED has a potential for growth from here.

Q: I have a full position in TOY and am starting to lose patience as I’m now down 24% in a year and don’t really see any positive momentum building given trade tensions and indications of an economic slowdown. I’m considering selling half or all to move into a more positive growth story as things stand today. As an example, I recently sold a half position in SIS and bought LSPD with very positive results. I would possibly buy more LSPD with the understanding growth=risk. Security and diversity are covered in other parts of our portfolio; these growthy stocks are in our TFSAs where growth is our only consideration. Given the objectives of our TFSA accounts can you make a case for keeping, selling half or all of TOY at this time.

Q: What 4 Canadian stocks would you buy that have the potential to appreciate quickly for a short term hold? Risk not an issue. Well balanced portfolio.
