Investment Q&A

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

Q: I know you are not tax experts, so please disregard this question if it falls too far outside your field. I only venture it because you are so generous in answering all sorts of questions.

My wife and I each have a margin account. We are retired and take money from a rif each year. Dividends, capital gains and pensions are split at tax time.

The question is whether we are able to shift money back and forth between our accounts without tax consequences? Also, would it be possible to combine the two accounts into a joint margin account without tax consequences
Thanks as always for the great service

Q: I am thinking of selling my long term holding in KXS (held in RRSP) in favour of NOW. I acknowledge the obvious difference in size and risk. I would like to continue to position in a consistent performer with visible earnings growth in the cloud-based enterprise SAAS space. The recent poor subscription guidance, significantly lower margin expectations and the “cockroach theory” has made me contemplate the change out of KXS. NOW would appear to be an emerging platform company with a much larger TAM than KXS. Would you be ok with this considering my objective of consistency or would this be an over-reaction on my part as KXS has been good to me (thanks to 5i)?

Q: When companies do a private placement or a bought deal, what percentage of the time would the stock price rise above that price, lets say in 1 year? Do you know any studies that answer the question, or can you provide an answer based on your experience? I recognize the question is very broad. I suppose your answer would differ depending on the market cap of that company. Asking because I want to see if it is a good strategy to buy based on a dip down to the PP price. Thanks.

Q: Hi there,

I only have a little bit of money to put in right now and I’m looking at either WELL or Air Canada - which would you recommend? I am comfortable holding for a year or two minimum and am looking for growth but want to stay on the safer side. Appreciate your insight!

Q: GIC coming due shortly, do not want to reinvest the money at a .75% rate. I’m considering buying a fairly safe dividend paying stock or 2. They could have a some growth as well as they would be in my TFSA. Have been considering TFII. What do you think of it and could you suggest a couple of other options for me to look into..

Thanks for your thoughts and suggestions.

What are the pros and cons of public offering versus brought deal from a company’s and investor's point of view? Is one financing deemed "better" than the other? Thank you.
