Investment Q&A

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

Q: Could you please comment on Suncor's Q3 results and increased dividend. Do you see SU as a long term hold? I have a significant SU position in 2 margin accounts and can't decided at what speed I should be moving these investment dollars to green energy stocks that I would hold forever. Thanks for valuable information!

Hello Chris,

Thank you for your email and valid comments. While we can't comment specifically on the stock price (that is for licensed professionals), we can tell you that the business plan is still very much on track and that over the past year we have been very focused on building a leading gaming, media and entertainment company. In that time, our key operating metrics have all improved, including improving gross margins, subscription growth and direct sales growth, In addition, the company is in a stronger financial position today than a year ago with more cash and less debt on its balance sheet. Finally, we have deployed capital on smart, accretive acquisitions that have strengthened our fan communities while supporting the operating metrics above.

We remain on track to achieve our business plans and have delivered consistent fundamental growth on all of our operating metrics.

Please feel free to reach out any time and we thank you for your ownership and support.

Q: BAM.A is up 45.5% YTD. Is there anything you know of that would push BAM.A higher in the next 6 months?

This is one of those tricky / annoying timing questions! BAM.A is currently 8% of all our accounts, so I was thinking of selling 1% to boost our dividend income in an unregistered account. We have some losses from previous years to soften the capital gains.

Thanks!

Q: Can you tell me whether you feel your model portfolios are appropriate to implement in a taxable account?

I have free trading on my taxable account and some cash to deploy, but I'm wondering if this is a wise move due to portfolio turnover and ACB tracking. For context, I have only ever invested in ETFs and low fee mutual funds previously - and only in tax deferred accounts.

Q: This question is about REAL...which is held in a TFSA....and is down 66% or 4,700 loonies as of this evening, Oct 25th As it is held in at TFSA,and not being able to claim a capital loss for tax purposes, I wondering what my options are?....and this stems from  REAL being recently sold from the 5iR Growth Portfolio What comes to mind is  #1..like sell now before the real tax loss season begins as it is likely to decline further #2..repurchase as the tax loss selling season ends or when it shows momentum #3...or just bit the bullet and move on Keen to get your take for my particular situation, even though you have moved on, or is there some other option, as I work to recover the loss, which I already know is not the best approach and something I don't do but as it is in the TFSA, I mentally just want to make up any loss on selling it by repurchasing it, crazy as it seems, eh?!.........Tom
