Q: Hello team, was hoping to get your view on the following four companies. The first three look to be possible tax loss candidates for the year and could be worth picking up in December. I am curious to see how you rank them. Thank you,

Q: I am trying to determine if the following makes sense . I can buy Nxpi today at about
98.70( last trade) , Qcom has an offer of 110 closing end off 2017. I have not read anywhere the suggestion the takeover will not occur or that there are any government concerns.
In my truly humble opinion it looks like an easy way to make a guaranteed 10 plus percent on my money over a year.
Thus the issue.. Can it be that easy.
I suppose there is always a chance the deal can be terminated up until the cash is transferred , and if so Nxp get 2.5 billion .
I think the risk reward here is toward the reward.
Your comment would be appreciated

Q: Good morning,

Looking to clarify with regards to the Vanguard Dividend Appreciation etf's for an rrsp- if one wishes to have a currency effect( vis a vis US: Cdn dollar)they should purchase "VIG, or if looking to hedge and only feel the effects of the equity movements then purchase "VGG"? Also is there an equivalent for the IWO? Looking to add both to my portfolio and looking to see if they are a good complement.

With thanks,
Brad
