Q: Hi Guys, I was thinking of putting this ETF in my TFSA for some monthly income. I was wondering if there would be a withholding tax applied if it is in a TFSA because of the US content. I there is do you know how much? If there is then perhaps this would be more suited in an RRSP. I'm retired and am looking for income. Thanks for your help.

Q: I invest in companies that have a track record of growing dividends. A chunk of my portfolio is invested in Canadian bank stocks which up to this year had a nice record of increasing dividends. In 2020 TD and RY did increase early in the year - but Covid brought a halt to increases from BMO and BNS. When do you think the banks will begin to think about increases - is 2021 too early and does OFSI (or whatever they are called) have a say and will they disallow.
Thanks

Q: According to a CNBC article that linked to the CDC website, Palantir has a software called Tiberius that is being used to facilitate the distribution of the vaccine(s). Could this have anything to do with the frenzy.? I bought this right after you recommended it but didn’t expect this! Does the huge volume mean anything positive or is that nothing new with stocks that move violently one way or the other? Thank you.

Q: I'm considering shifting my TFSA from primarily growth to income and ask that you provide your best 4-5 companies for yield and some growth with a plan to create a tax free income stream. Monthly income would be ideal.

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i Team - For a long time the benefits of copper as an anti-microbial agent have been known but perhaps not widely. That recognition has been gaining steam as both public transportation systems and hospitals are considering using it in their touch surfaces and elsewhere. Although these innovations are on a small scale at this point, they will likely gain steam as the world seeks to find ways of reducing the transmission of viruses and also bacteria – any form of microbes. Obviously this is a very worthwhile goal! From an investment standpoint could you provide the names of two or three copper producers that you feel have the fundamentals to not only continue to produce copper at current levels but also might have the ability to increase their production. Thanks.
