#1.currency exchange aside does it matter TAX-WISE (dividend withholding tax) which one is in the RRSP

#2. considering currency exchange costs, do you recommend going with VOO or sticking to VFV in a non registered account. (factors to consider , amount invested will likely be upwards of 100 000 and long term hold)

thanks

Q: Hi,

I’m looking to either add to or start a new position in my TFSA, 3-5 year timeline (or longer), with a high risk tolerance. Can you suggest a few companies (no preference Can/US). I currently already have small positions of both Topicus and Eglx inside my TFSA, so I’m also considering just adding the new funds to either of these. Thanks for the great service you provide!

Q: On 7/30 in your response on a question regarding DND you said "DND, even in a privatization, might only have another 10% potential." Can you please elaborate on that?

I have BEPC and DND in my RRIF and I need to sell one of the two to raise the cash to meet the regular monthly payout requirement next month. If DND's upside is that limited BEPC would be the one to keep since it pays a better dividend and the prospect of renewable energy stocks should rebound much more. Your insight is much appreciated. Thanks.

Q: what would be a good sector to invest in with possible market downturn scenerios?

I've heard some people say commodities are a good play in a downturn espeically due to inflation but I can't see how they would be due to demand destruction from higher prices.

I think bonds and equities would both suffer - it seems they are more co-related nowadays.

Can you recommend a safe haven in anticipation both a credit-binge/inflationary-based downturn as well as a credit-bust/deflationary downturn?
