Q: Hi 5i team
I have a 2% position of TECK.B that I did not sell when you adjusted your BE portfolio. I am thinking of selling it but only if you think I could have better performance from one of the following BE stocks...I am missing from the Balanced Equity portfolio AEM, ATD.B, BYD.UN, GC, SU,...I have but could top up CCL.B, MG, PBH, MX. All other BE stocks are at acceptable levels.This is in a RRSP account and I plan to hold for a while. No worries about sector weightings. Thank you, Hope you had a great family day. J

Q: Good morning,
I currently do not own the above listed equities from the BE Portfolio which I follow pretty closely. Are there any you would not recommend purchasing right now? Thanks for your counsel. I am watching sector allocations.

Q: I am planning to realize losses on the above companies to offset capital gains with a plan to repurchase after 30 days. In order to maintain sector exposure in the intervening period I would like identify proxies for each holding. My thinking is as follows:

TECK.B == XMA
BNS == TD
TFII == ZIN
NFI == ZIN
WEF == CFP
VET == XEG
WCP == XEG

Please review my suggested proxies and add / amend as needed. Alternatively, if you think I would simply be better off holding cash until repurchasing please say so. Thank-you very much for your help.

Q: Hi Guys,

I sold WCP for the tax loss in October. Since then it has declined from $8 to $5. Any suggestions as to when to buy back, or would you suggest any other replacement, say VET?

Still hanging on to Teck at a big decline. Was concerned that they would bring on a partner for their copper mine in Peru. Any point in waiting longer or will a deal not be of any impact?

Thanks,

KC
