Investment Q&A

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

Q: "We are not tax experts, but it is generally wise for dual citizens to avoid TFSAs" This was your response to an Oct 25 question. I have been contributing to a TFSA since they started in 2009 with limits soon to exceed $80,000. There is some paperwork required as the Americans consider TFSAs a 'foreign trust' rather than a self funded, self directed investment vehicle. The paperwork time is worth the investment advantage. Some general guidance from US tax accountants would be beneficial to your subscribers with dual citizenship and those filing US tax forms. I use RLB with offices in KW/Guelph (Jeff Hood is the US tax person)

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
TD Webbroker has a feature called Advance Dashboard.
Before I sign up I wanted to know how useful it is for a long term investor and not a day trader. So when buying or selling a stock it would be helpful to see how many buy or sell lots and there volume were lined up...if you know what I mean. Your thoughts please! Thank you!

Q: I'm befuddled about classifying VEEV as in the HealthCare sector. But VEEV" provides industry-specific cloud-based software solutions to address the operating and regulatory challenges of life sciences companies". Seems to me, VEEV is really a software provider and for this reason, I would classify VEEV in the Technology sector. I'm curious what your take is as I want to ensure I get it right for my portfolio analysis....Thanks for you input......Tom

Q: The selling in AT is relentless. It's down 90% from the top. Not even pump and dump penny stocks are hit so hard. I don't understand what went so wrong with a company that was added to the portfolio not long ago and even add after the initial drop.

Q: Is there a reason why TSM has been flat while other semi's like NVDA, AMD, AVGO have been on fire. I wanted to buy NVDA but missed the recent move higher and looking for another semi that will catch up to these other names. Is TSM a good candidate? Thanks!

Q: I am holding a small position in TSM that is currently at a 2% loss. The share price has been trading sideways for some time. I also own SMH which has TSM as one it's top holdings. I am inclined to sell TSM and use the money for something else. I plan to keep holding SMH which has made good gains for me. Both are in the same taxable margin account. Should I keep holding TSM for the longer term, or should I let it go? I am also holding MRVL, AMD, QCOM and NVDA for the long term.
