Q: I am sitting on a 31% loss in Photon Control in my Margin Account. I am considering harvesting the tax loss and re-purchasing in my TFSA after 30 days. Does this seem a reasonable strategy especially since PHO will likely take some time to turn around in this market? Alternately, if I don't sell the shares but move them to my TFSA will that trigger a tax loss? This only seems fair since if I had an unrealized capital gain I would have a deemed disposition and a tax liability.

Q: Hello. My question may not be about Evertz per se, but a transaction.
I had a bid in for Evertz at $15.50 per share. The market closed with Evertz at 15.89 (I think). After 4pm a large volume was traded 19k vs 52k total as the daily total.
My order was filled at 4:09 at $15.11 per share. There were subsequent orders filled at higher prices. I’m not complaining, but what the heck happened? Was there a huge dump at $15.11 that scooped up my order? How late can orders be processed, particularly on a reporting day?
Well, while we’re at it.... could you comment on the reported results please?

Your response implies that there is some possibility that SIS will be written off, whereas your previous comments on SIS have been very positive. What level of confidence do you have in SIS as a viable investment for the long term?

Q: I really can't understand DOO.
I have been investing for 15 years and have never seen this. DOO has beating earnings 9 out of the last 9 times and the stock, after reaching
$51 on Monday is now below $41.
I know there is no news to account for this drop.
Can there be something we do not know about that is the reason?
Can that sale of stock in September still have an effect on this stock?
Maybe Trump has plans to only tax Ski-Doos?
