Q: I have been advised by BMO that this company is planning to have a Dutch Auction in the near future. The company is giving me 12 different options for selling some of my shares, with the last option(#99) being to do nothing. Can you advise why the company might be going this route to purchase back shares. Are there advantages for the company to go this route. And for the investor, why should he sell some of his shares this way. If there is some advantage to the investor, how do you decide which option to pick. Right now my preferred option is to do nothing, but would appreciate your advice on this matter. Many tnx for the great service.

Q: One of my financial advisors moved from TD to Canaccord. Got me wondering if I should sell the TD shares I own in my self managed account and buy Canaccord.

Also a comment to Garth who is having trouble contacting TD WebBroker, I contact them through their phone app with much better results.

Q: Good morning, I hold these smaller cap companies in my TFSA for more aggressive growth, a strategy I believe you endorse.
In this new reality, I am thinking of a more conservative approach and selling the above and converting to FTS, RY, XRE, SLF.
If things recover well I will get a great pop on the big caps without the individual company risk associated with the smaller caps. If things go poorly with the recovery, my large cap mix should drop a lot less than the smaller caps.
Also, any of the above smaller caps that you do not like.

Thanks
Rob
