Q: Hi Peter,
I have taken a very small position in NGA.WS using my margin account. I agree the company/warrants are highly risky but I like the 2027 expiry date and that some large investors have put money in. Lion also seems to be making and selling a small number of EVs currently so there is some experience - but certainly it's going to be stretch to scale up. The warrants will either go to zero or pull off a "multi-bagger". I think the warrants should be placed inside my TFSA but I have no contribution room available until 2021. As the value of warrants exceed the $6,000 allowable deposit for 2021 I would need to transfer out 2 or 3 of my CSU shares before the end of the year and then transfer the all the warrants inside the TFSA in the new year as a contribution in kind. Do you think this is a good strategy? Possibly you feel the warrants should be kept inside the Margin account so I could claim the loss! Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim

Q: Which do you think makes a better long term TFSA investment?
Thanks

Q: Can you suggest any stocks (non tech) US and/or Canadian, which looks attractive from a capital growth perspective for a TFSA for the long term? Does anything look attractive after tax loss? Thanks. Shyam

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan and team,

There are 8 stocks in my TFSA. REAL is 5% and LSPD also is 5% of the value of my TFSA. Which of the 2 stocks do you think I should buy more of?

A more broader question, is 8 stocks in a TFSA too many? Should I try to amalgamate to 5-6 stocks?

Thanks.

Q: Can I transfer cash from my CAD TFSA to my USD TFSA (same institution) without it being considered a withdrawal and new contribution? Thanks.

Q: If you were to buy any 3 US stocks at today's pricess for long term hold with a focus on growth what would they be.

Q: I have both Canadian and US stocks in my TFSA in separate accounts. Is it a mistake to own US stocks in a TFSA due to potential tax issues? Thnks

Q: I hold US Funds (shares) in my LIF Account.
I will need to deregister a portion next year and wish to transfer to my US TFSA account in US$. I could try doing it in KIND but will probably run into equivalency problems.
If we are allowed to load our TFSA's next year at $6000.00 (if) at what exchange rate do I use for the US vs CDN Dollar not to exceed the maximum permissible.
Thanks

Q: If you had $75k US to deploy in a TFSA, what 5 US stocks would you consider given today's market & recent run up? Investor profile is Growth with a 5 year time horizon.
Thank you!

Q: The above positions are held by my daughter's trade account and I would like to transfer a few into her TFSA.

........Many thanks for the wonderful advice...Tom

Q: Good afternoon, I'm feeling grouchy about my TFSA today. Quite a few of my holdings are underwater. Tech is the only area that has shown me any growth. I am down 46% on XTC, down 80% on HWO, down 36% on GUD, down 6% on BCI, up 5% on DOL, and down 6% on SIS. I know I can't claim losses but is it time to dump some of these and redeploy. I don't need the cash and can be quite patient and I know my tech weightings are getting high but it seems as though that's where most of my winners are. How high would you let your tech weighting go in a TFSA that is a long term savings vehicle. Thoughts?

Q: Hi, I'm currently holding a few of these positions in our TFSA's along with SHOP, LSPD, WELL, etc... I'm trying to determine if these four stocks fit best in a TFSA or other accounts? I try to put the highest growth stocks into our TFSA's. Would you swap any of these names out with some of the other high growth stocks you like and put these into an RSP, LIRA or non registered account? Thanks!

Q: Hi Peter,
Can we buy options from registered account like TFSA or RRSP? If we buy from these account is there any restrictions or penalties?
Thank you,
KT

Q: Hi team,
I recently sold a stock at a loss in my TFSA. Can I buy the same stock in my non-registered account now or do I have to wait the 30 days period required by CRA to avoid a penalty ?
Gratefully,

Jacques IDS

Q: Do you perceive that this stock has truly hit bottom and is rebounding back to “respectability” or is their recent market success illusory?
