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

Q: In my self administered TFSA I’m invested about 50% in US equities/50%CND equities.

So whenever I’m buying or selling a US stock I have to deal with currency conversions as well as trading fees.

Am I allowed to have a Self directed US dollar TFSA thru Invest Direct at CIBC and linked to US dollar account held at the same bank? My local CIBC guy says no. Seems RBC allows it. Thanks for your appreciated guidance!!

Q: Greetings:
In your Nov 27 update report on Boyd Group Services you show n/a
for the 5 year eps growth. Please explain? Also, in the last few days
a question was asked about the viability of a company. Your answer
was that it has a Bloomberg default risk rating of I think it was about 6.8?. Can any member of the team remember the name of the
company? I understand what this rating is, I just like to remember
the details in the questions and to satisfy my memory.
Thanks very much.
BEN.

Q: Hi
I bought some DOCU stock just before the March lockdown and the stock is now up by 155 %. I want to know if you consider the stock a pure stay at home stock which will start underperforming once vaccines start to roll up and life gradually goes back to normal? EPS is in the negative sign which is not a good sign.
Or do you see the stock remaining sideways in the 220 $ range when the economy start back up and demand keep on growing?
Do you consider DOCU a good company (similar to MSFT for example) that is a long time hold?

Thanks
Kristelle

Q: Hi there,
Brookfield Renewable has tumbled faster and farther in the last week or so than at any point since March. Is there a sector reason behind this (ie fears of rising rates) or is it company related?

Q: Hello Peter,
Please watch this link....it's only 1min. This is very worrisome. Pierre Poilievre suggests "lock away your money". What would you suggest? If decide they want to go after ou savings (which BTW I think it's very possible), what would they "grab"? How would they go about doing this assault?....Do you think they could go after trading accounts? Or maybe the cash on trading accounts? Maybe savings accts., GIC's, etc.
How do protect ourselves?
As you may know, Trudeau w/NDP (which represent majority) are in agreement to tax on the equity of your home (principal residence) when you sell it. Also, they are planning (maybe they've already done it, don't know) on taxing inheritance to pay for all the free money they are giving away.....BTW Canada apparently has the highest debt, by far, of the G20.
Thank you very much!
Silvia

Q: If you were entering new money today to try to yield at least 4 or 5 percent, what would be your top 5-10 dividend income stocks in Canada that you feel would be a safe hold for at least ten years? Alternatively, what would be your top dividend stocks in the U.S. obviously yielding less?
