Q: Lately the worlds central banks have been buying ton's of gold. At the same time the price of gold has been moving very slow compared to the buying. Are the central banks buying paper gold or are they actually taking delivery of physical. If they are taking delivery of physical where are they getting it from as it seems to be way more than mine supply and the you tubes show massive buying at the coin shops in the US.

Q: Brucey asked a question today about capital losses from previous years and you said to refile previous tax returns to claim the loss. If he is referring to losses he has reported when filing his previous tax returns, then the easy thing to do is report the loss on line 61 of the current year return "net capital losses of other years". The government doesn't automatically do this for you because you can carry forward the losses as long as you want and use them in any future year.

Q: 1. Anaergia has sunk to a point where failure has to be considered; yet I would have thought that unlikely?
2. If you ignore the 2020 blip in their share price NWH is now discounting five years of growth. Two questions; why, and is this a sector phenomena – as in health care or if appropriate real estate more generally, or is it an individual problem applying to solely to NWH?

Q: Not a surprise: I am seeing news media reporters with income portfolios cutting Algonquin after their recent drop and dividend cut. It is also noteworthy that it has rallied.
Realizing that it apparently made some leadership decisions that weren’t ideal, its cash flow due rate increases was flagged as a major reason for the dividend cut.
Do you see that this continues to justify this drop or should it hopefully rectify itself when rates stabilize or drop again?

Q: Hi 5i,
Do you still favour LIFE over DHT.un? And what about holding both in a TFSA?
And what is your opinion of PPL? It never goes up? I also have ENB but they have the underwater pipeline issue. What would be alternatives?
Many thanks for your patience and great suggestions.

Q: Hello,

It seems like Wealthsimple Trade is offering some new products. 3 of which are stock lending, private credit, and a few months ago a venture fund. What are your thoughts on these offerings and could you explain how they generate a return?

Thank you.
