Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Peter and Co, I have enjoyed the tax benefit of donating stocks to registered charities, thus avoiding the capital gains tax. Often I will repurchase the stock after it has been sold by the charity or its agent. If I donate a stock from my cash account and immediately purchase in m y TFSA, am I correct in assuming that the adjusted cost base of the donated stock or the portion of the stock remaining in the cash account is not impacted? This question has been posed to me so I am looking for some assurance.
With appreciation,
Ed

Q: I have $35,000 CAD to invest in a non registered account. Can you suggest a couple of names worth looking at (US/Can)and why? I have a 7 year time horizon.

Thoughts on how you might deploy? Buy now, in thirds over the next few months or wait?

Thanks

Q: Peter; As a long timer I need to reply to Jason’s comments re Unity. If Peter and Co. knew when the “ market” was going to suddenly dump any particular sector , Techs or otherwise , they would not be holding our hands now and still providing excellent advice on a daily basis - they’d be on their yatchs in a warm sunny place. If Jason knows when this might occur in the future please let us all know.

Q: Hi. I still like both companies (veev,gh) but am going to sell for tax loss reasons and that they total between them 3% only of my portfolio. Am looking to consolidate into a single health care stock to go along with MDT which I already own in my portfolio. I like my positions to be at least 3% and not two smaller positions. Any suggestions. I was thinking ILMN. If you like ILMN please let me know why and what sets them apart. Thanks

Q: KRR is 2.4% of my RRSP and I am up about 110% (also hold KRR and XGD in other accounts). Can you please tell me a bit more about KRR? I know it mines gold and nickel.
After significant declines with small caps like AT, XBC and REAL, I am a bit leery of KRR and wonder if its time to take a bit of profit, but I am reluctant with such good momentum. Can you please tell us again what dollar cap amount defines a small cap, med cap and large cap?
Thanks!!

Q: I'm trying to figure out why you were recommending Unity to your readers when it was most overvalued and now that it has fallen, you are less upbeat on the name. While hindsight is always 20-20, it seems to me that your views should have been reversed (discouraging readers from buying a stock that had popped up so much so quickly months ago but now perhaps being more interested in the name at this lower valuation). Do you feel that you were in error when you suggested this name as a pick? It was clearly too frothy over the last 6 months to one year when it was being recommended yet this did not factor into your comments it seems.
