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

Q: Hi,
Last year around this time, you were asked to guess a few names in the US or CDN Market that had 100 bagger potential. Some of the names mentioned were WELL, TTD, LSPD, XBC, MGNI, PLTR, VEEV, PINS, KRR, & STC. Just wondering if there were any names you would add or delete from this list? I realize identifying the next 100 bagger is next to impossible, just for some fun.
Thanks

Q: I currently am not set up to invest in US stocks. What do you think about the 10 CDR stocks currently listed on the TSX? If you like that vehicle, are there any in that group that you like more than others?

This would be a 2 credit question.

Thanks

Q: Looking to buy one or both of these companies in light of recent weakness, this would either be for a taxable account or an RRSP (have some room in both for a new position). Would you hold off for now? Which would you buy first and what would you consider an attractive price? Thank you.

Q: In the forums section there is a discussion on how much trading in a TFSA might cause the CRA to consider the activity as carrying on a business. I know you cannot get a straight answer from CRA but I'm curious if you guys have any knowledge of a DIY investor/trader (not a financial industry employee or someone holding a private corp in their TFSA) running into problems because they were trading excessively in their TFSA. The media has warned us what might happen or could happen but has it actually happened to anyone that you are aware of?

Q: I plan to contribute some money ($50K) into RRSP and split between CAD and USD stocks. The time horizon is around 5-10 years. But it is always good to see some short term gain. Can you please provide ~ 5 stocks each (currency) to invest?

Thank you,

Q: In a question today you mentioned that this week is peak tax loss selling time (for Canada).

Does the US have the same "tax loss selling" phenomena at the same time of year? If not the same time, when does their "tax loss selling" season peak?

Thanks, Paul

Q: Do you have some suggestions for ETFs that have the following characteristics, with a very long-term hold in mind:

- do not include Canadian or US stocks
- could be focused on Europe or Latin America
- could be focused on Asia, preferably with little or (better yet) no exposure to Chinese stocks
- could be focused on other geographic areas you think have excellent potential

Q: In reflecting on the next direction to place some funds I looked at the performance of the Russel 2000 fund in your growth portfolio. Then looked at some alternatives in the Vanguard family of US based small cap and Russel ETFs. Going more mid or small cap seems appealing but where would your preference lies or is it in the current ETF you hold in the growth portfolio?
