Q: Baytex dropped in excess of 7% today. While I expect there's more than one question on it, it'd be great to get your take on this. They announced their capital budget yesterday and it appears to be a story of moderate growth pushing out their debt target date to 2028. I am a bit surprised by the magnitude of the decline if this is the root cause and wondering if there is more to the story.

Please provide your read on the decline and whether this presents a buying opportunity, or should one move on from the company to better opportunities?

Thanks as always.

Dave

Q: The CAD continues to weaken against the USD. Interest rates are declining in the US so I’m not sure why the USD is so strong. Trump’s tariffs are thought to be inflationary so possibly the market is already anticipating higher interest rates. Typically I am fully invested. Trying to decide if I should sell a portion of my USD stocks like NVDA to raise some cash. I agree that the tariffs are coming in spite of what we Canadians do to secure our border. May I have your thoughts on the USD and the tariffs?
Thanks,
Jim

Q: 5i has been positive on CAR.un for a long time. You are not alone. It seems to be a long term favourite of many if not most REIT analysts. I have held it since 2019 and am down about 9%. It is about $15 below its 2022 high and is trading at 2018 levels. I bought it for income. Other residential REITs have a superior distribution Every day I look at it and say to myself "why am I holding this." What do you see in the future of CAR.un that makes it a buy or even a hold? If I cash out, what would be your next best favoutite with a better distribution?

Q: Hi there, now that Trump and the Republicans are in full control for the next 4 years, where does that leave the cannabis industry going forward in the US?

Were the Republicans ever in favour of legalizing the industry in the US on a federal level?

What is your opinion on the industry going forward in the US now, as far as legalization is concerned, federally?

Any thoughts on what happens to all our Canadian companies wanting the market to open up in the US, WEED, TLRY, etc etc

Thanks!
