Q: Good morning,

I'm looking to add an asset manager on the US side. Or possibly adding to BN as well in my non registered.

With a bit of a pullback do you have a preferred company in that space at current valuation and future prospects.

With a possible buy range as well please.

Thank you!

Q: Good morning,

I hold BN in my non-registered account for my canadian side of my portfolio.

I've been looking to add to my TFSA on the US side in the same sector.

I see some of the notable ones are pulling back a hair.
From APO, BX, KKR could you please give me your pick. And if it's different than those proposed please put it forward as well.

Along with a value range to add. This will be longterm full position.

Thank you very much.

Q: Good afternoon
As a follow up to your response regarding your preference to purchase BN in a CDN$ Non Registered account would it also be advantageous to journal the BN shares that I currently hold in my US$ Non Registered account to my CDN$ Non Registered account given the relatively low value of the CDN$ and journal them back to the US$ account when the CDN$ regains some of its recent loss in value?
Thank you and I’ll await your sage advice,
Francesco

Q: Good morning,

My questions this morning is partly Currency related as it applies to BN in particular and your best idea for a stock to add to the "ALTERNATIVES" portion of my overall family portfolio.

Q1. Would you kindly recommend your best two ideas for a stock to add in the "Alternatives" portion of my overall portfolio.

Q2. For my US$ Non Registered account, I was thinking of adding some BN to the existing holdings by buying BN in CDN$ and journaling the CDN$ stocks over to my US$ Non Registered account as I have done in the past.
That said and given that the CDN$ has dropped significantly of late and with perhaps more to go, would it be preferable at this time to simply purchase BN in my CDN$ account and leave the shares in the CDN$ Non Registered account with no journaling into the US$ account.

Thank you and I'll await your response.

Q: I have approximately $70k cash in my TFSA account that I would like to invest before the end of the year. I currently have the above stocks in my TFSA. My investments in Lightspeed and Unity have taken a big hit (70 to 80% loss) since purchasing these stocks. I understand that I cannot claim losses on investments in my TFSA account. Would you suggest selling off my investments in Lightspeed and Unity and reinvesting these funds? As noted above, I have cash in my TFSA to be invested. Please rank my current TFSA holdings for additional investment considering a 5 to 10 year hold. Thank you for your expertise and best wishes for the Holiday Season.

Q: This Friday, BAM shareholders (but no other Brookfield entity, correct?) will vote on becoming US-domiciled, and, as-such, eligible for inclusion in US indices.

Assuming approval, (a) should this change catalyze an expansion of its P/E multiple (or is that already priced-in), and (b) should this change catalyze, indirectly, a proportional expansion for BN?

Q: It’s RRSP season. I am very overweight the US market (and tech) and with the declining dollar, I am considering buying a Canadian security.

Can you list your 5 favourite Canadian Picks for a Canadian RRSP. I already own GSY, Propel, TVK. Considering CNQ as I have no energy exposure.

You can be aggressive or conservative in your recommendations. I have no preference as to market cap or sector.

Please rank your favourites.

Thank you.

Q: Hello team,
Can you help me understand please whether i should put new monies in TFSA towards bep.un or bepc ? On yahoo, i see bep.un has dividend of 5.87 percent but 1 year return of minus 2 percent where as bepc has dividend of 4.7 percent but one year return of 14 percent. From income and growth perspective, bepc seems to be better bet.. If this is the case, are investors losing out by investing in bep.un? i have huge loss in my rrsp from bep.un so would like to know where to put new monies as it seems brookfield would benefit from the energy transition. Alternatively, am i better off simply putting all my monies in BN and forget the spinoffs.. please explain and thank you ..

Q: Could you please clarify your answer to Bruce Dec 5. In your answer you first say NVDIA as the 'if we have to pick one' but then you go on to say if an investor is looking at only one, you say you would be picking BN should be the investors choice if choosing only one ?????
Also, the ranking doesn't seem to match up with those comments...please expand.
