Q: I'd like to understand the taxing of distributions/Dividends better

For example CAD dividends receive the dividend tax credit. But other distributions are taxed as interest, others maybe capital gains? like AW income fund. REITs etc

Could you outline the different types of taxation that can happen for cash paid out from a publicly traded canadian security, AND how to distinguish what type of distribution a certain security makes.

Q: With re balancing in my cash account I have a capital gain of $25,000 in 2018. If I were to sell my CGX, ENB and GUD I would have a loss of $14,000. My thinking is that this loss would offset the capital gains.

I intend to re buy these 3 stocks after the 30 day period,

Does this make sense?

Thank you

Sincerely

Mike

Q: Hi Peter, bought more GUD today and have a quick curiosity question on what they do with all the cash reserves while they wait. It looks like ~$788M vs 142.8M shares = ~$5.52/share. I'm assuming that with that magnitude of funds they'd get a pretty decent rate/month; but is that what they do ? Also, what size ($) of company would/could they target with the amount of cash they have ? And, is the thought that any purchase would be NA based or does that matter ? Thanks.

Q: Recently i placed a stop loss on one of my holdings. BAD news and the first trade of the morning was 20 per cent below my stop loss Needless to say, I did not get taken out. I was stuck at the current trading price at that time Is there any way to prevent this from happening? Hope Ive explained myself properly Thanks
