Investment Q&A

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

Q: I am trying to learn how to sell losers but it is complicated. Having held BYDDY for a few years I finally sold it just before it shot up this summer (whine). I plan to sell Western Forest Products at a big loss and reinvest the funds. Will you recommend a stock or two for the funds; I'm considering WELL or REAL or both, as I have partial positions in both? Thanks, Cathy

Q: Understanding that time in the market , not timing the market is best approach to long-term gains. And that one should never try to "wait for, or guess, the bottom" to pick up solid stocks, humour me with this scenario -> COVID-19 is gone tomorrow! Albeit with somewhat new reality. But it's effectively off the table as a criteria or condition for stock selection. What are your top 3 industries, and individual names in each industry you'd be rushing out to buy? Feel free to add more than 3 industries and names. I have always been a fan of Info Tech (software) so you can exclude this as I strongly believe that trend is always positive. Thanks.

Q: With your help from May2017 to now I am up 132%. Love your advice but tend to think it's aimed at young and middle aged people, which is probably most of your readers.
I am 71 and have Shopify which has done well for as have KL, Real and Brookfields to name a few. Have some cash and was wondering if you could give me some growth , yes I know the risk, that won't take 10 years to see action on.
