Q: Hello 5I.
I just was wondering how best to handle tax loss selling season? Do I wait till late november early december to buy some "losers" or do you strike when it falls into my range. I am just tentative as I don't want to buy way to early if a stock is probably going to drop further (best guess).. Dollarama for example..
Thanks

Q: Hi, I see other members are selling stocks for a tax loss. In my case I only have investments in my rsp, so will not be able to use this strategy. How much of the downward momentum on stocks like DOL and TCL can be attributed to selling for a tax loss? The recent negative market reaction to both of these stocks was quick and as you have stated possibly an "over reaction". How much of the drop can be attributed to sellers seeing the chance to take a tax loss. This is a part of the market I don't understand all that well. Thanks.

Q: I'm curious as to what you think of Dollarama now that it’s fallen so much. The company's growth forecast was lowered, but I’m thinking with high household debt and rising interest rates, many people might shop there out of necessity. Do you recommend it as a buy at these levels, and what are the risks associated with the stock? Do you think it’s better to wait until December to buy?

Q: Currently own a 4% position of Dollarama and after the disappointment today was thinking of switching over to Covalon as a replacement. Looking out 3+ years would you look at this as a better long term strategy? Starting to worry the Dollar store space could get crowded in the coming years.
