Q: The way things look right now, it is difficult to see how energy and materials (mining) won’t play a major role in keeping Canada afloat. It seems we have things the world needs/wants if we can get over our distaste for being prosperous. I’m wondering if you can suggest some “pick and shovel” plays in the space generally?

Q: CDN margin account
I’m up 126% on NEO which is 14.7 % of portfolio.
US margin account
I’m up 187% on OR Royalties which is 85% of portfolio (total of two stocks).
TFSA
I’m up 78% on EIF; 34% of portfolio
I have enough capital loss carry forward to offset 100% of the accrued gains in the CDN and US margin accounts. What is your advice? Click on the “sell” button for the two margin account stocks? What about the TFSA EIF stock? Should one sell, trim down?
I would appreciate your comments/guidance.
Thank you

Q: Hello,
I am thinking of investing in the rare earths segment. If i had to invest, would you suggest half and half or is Neo better than MP? Also, do you think i have missed the boat on investing in this area ? With regards to quantum computing, is IONQ considered one of the better companies to invest in? My concern is NVDA could get into this space as well. Thanks very much

Q: Can you recommend stocks which might take advantage of large battery technology such as for utilities and renewable energy?

Does anyone have moat like advantages within this area?

Or, is there a more subtle play here?

Thanks
