Investment Q&A

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

Q: In general, when the markets come roaring back, do investors tend to load up on those companies that weathered the storm (kxs, real thus far) or promising companies like lspd or stc who are taking a massive hit?
Thank you,
Kevin

Q: Hi,

Waiting on the 30 day period to release-purchase NFI after recording a tax loss. Purchased REAL with the funds from NFI. So far the rise in SP in NFI has equaled the rise in REAL.

Based on the aforementioned, would you sell REAL in order to repurchase NFI, or just keep REAL, based on current fundamentals, without regard to weightings by sector?

Q: Hello Peter & Team,

I noticed you added REAL.CA to the Growth Portfolio in the past month or so at 12.95. It's down slightly since. (ask today is around 12.28) I am considering adding a position to my Portfolio in consideration for how well I have done in following other Growth Portfolio additions you have made. My question is... what your reasoning was behind adding REAL to the 5i mock portfolio and, have you seen any changes to their story since doing so that you feel reflects negatively or positively on your decision?

Thanks for all you do
