Q: AEM stock has been under perform with Gold sector. Would this be the best pick in the sector? I purchased AEM in early September and use it as protection for the potential downside in other sectors but Gold sector is going down as well. Is this still the best strategy?
Q: Hi team, Is there any hope of a price increase on CJR ? I own these shares at a loss in my TFSA, some of them when Shaw dumped theirs to the public 2 years ago. Dividend is good. I do not really need the money but is it dead money? I’m over 70 and am a bit worried about the market right now, so CJR might be safer than new or riskier purchases in the coming months? Thanks.
Q: PKI is looking very poor technically - 200 day average starting to roll over. Are you still confident holding it in your BE portfolio? Do you have an estimate for a forward P/E? Thanks, Jim
Q: Retired, dividend-income investor. Reading lots about supply chain shortages (semi-conductors, copper, steel, etc). How are we best to play this?
Should we consider selecting companies within specific industries (Copper Mountain or Teck comes to mind) or should we go the ETF route (via ZMT or another suggestion via 5iR)?
A dividend would be a bonus. BTW, in the materials sector I already own NTR.

Q: One of the many great skills I've picked up as a member here is tax-loss harvesting. Recently, I saw a question that piqued my interest in the notion of "harvesting" outstanding capital gains to apply capital losses against in a pro-active manner.
To date, I've simply been carrying by my capital losses forward happy in the fact that when I do need to realize a capital gain, they will be there to help me out. Now I'm wondering if there may be value in getting a little crafty with selling stocks that are up and re-purchasing in 30 days to "tax harvest"? Without putting too much thought into it, the only advantage I can see in doing this would be dodging capital gain inclusion rate increases that may arise moving forward. Are there other reasons this may be a profitable tactic?
Q: Hi 5i, there have been a few questions lately, now mine, on companies having large volumes, sometimes corresponding moves. Is there any news on ATD? Today it traded almost 4x daily avg.
I brought Real:CA for long time ago, in average around $27. Although I am a long term investment, but I am so upset for the everyday dropping. How many years do you think the company will back to positive?
Many thanks.

Q: good morning - sentiment seems to be trending against my largest US health care position ABBV. Do you think it prudent to sell and reinvest in another company such as Pfizer or another company? Taxes are not an issue. Thanks
