Q: Thank you for my recent question re re-allocation of winners and losers. The above 3 equities represent approx 9% each in my portfolio of 25 in total. If I bring these 3 companies back below 7% each, which companies in either your growth or balanced funds should I add to with the proceeds.

Q: Good morning. I watched your interview with Kornel Szejber from Build Wealth Canada. On it you discussed immunization which was most helpful. You also mentioned that you thought of CNR and CP as set it and forget it stocks. With that train of thought in mind which other canadian dividend stocks would you put in this same category? If I was to purchase 10 dividend stocks to take advantage of the dividend tax credit in my non registered acct which would be my main source of income which stocks should I consider.
Thanks

Q: My Cash account. My plan is to top up existing positions in the following equities:
LIFE, AD.UN, BNS, WSP.

My thoughts were to buy in this order = LIFE (up overall, small capital loss on paper), AD (up lots, ETF-like stock), BNS (small paper loss), WSP (sensitive to economy-related projects?).

Could you please provide the sequence that you would buy these and why. The funds are available now, but I plan to spread out my purchases over time.

Thanks for your help....Steve

Q: I'm thinking about selling some of my 8.4% WSP weighting and buying more DOO to increase my weighting to 3%. Would you endorse this move? 2 or 3 weeks ago DOO was down due to a cyber attack and today up 10% due to great numbers...frankly I'm a little dizzy with all this bouncing around. None-the-less DOO seems to be an excellent company. WSP is also an excellent company but the ride seems less bouncy. By-the-way I bought WSP due to 5i"s recommendation. Up 360% to date - so thanks!

Q: I have recently redeemed some mutual funds that I have held for 20 to 30 years that will produce a significant capital gain for me in 2022. I have several stocks and an ETF that have been purchased in the past few years that are showing losses in the range of $5k to $15k. This includes TOI, U, SOXX, SQ, NVDA, MFI, MSFT, WSP and AMZN. Would you suggest selling these stocks to provide a capital loss that can be applied against my capital gain in 2022? It is my understanding that I will need to wait 30 days to repurchase shares to avoid the denial of the capital loss. If you would suggest selling these stocks and ETF, should I sell now or wait until the end of 2022? And if the stocks and ETF are sold to create a capital loss before the end of 2022, do you see some future in these investments and if so, which stocks would you suggest that I repurchase after 30 days? Thank you for your insights.
