Investment Q&A

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

Q: I purchased a 3.5% position in BRK after the announcement that Buffet was stepping down. I chose BRK over FFH. I am down 6.5% so far.

I can take this as a buying opportunity and increase my position in BRK to 5%.

I can also sell half of my BRK position for a tax loss and buy an equal amount of FFH.

I can also do nothing. I am a growth investor in my late seventies.

What would you do in this situation?

Thank you

Q: Greetings - To postpone tax liability from income, I would like to develop a balanced portfolio of stocks and ETFs for the medium term (3-10 years) that do not pay dividends or interest. Rather, I would prefer to incur the tax liability upon selling the holdings (capital gains). I am aware of Global X Total Return ETFs and stocks like BRK.B that do not pay annual dividends. Do you have any other suggestions? Thanks

What are your thoughts on HIVE and its AI / high-performance computing business. Do they have any potential in developing that segment knowing the high amount of funding required to be competitive.
Thank you.

Q: Hello 5i Team,

Could you please rank these 5 US stocks in the home-building and building materials sector for a 3-5 year hold and include a brief explanation.

Are there any others you would consider (not including HVAC)?

Thanks for your always helpful advice!

Q: I must admit that I know nothing about crypto and have no intention of investing in that field. My question concerns the stablecoin 'GENIUS Act' signed into law by the U.S. government yesterday. Will it be beneficial for the U.S. economy or the U.S. dollar, and could it have any impact on the Canadian economy? Thank you
