Q: Hi there,

I noticed you've been recently warming up to KRR and I know Eric Sprott has also been adding to his position. I'm thinking about buying 5 gold/silver Eric Sprott endorsed names with high potential (maybe the next KL?) and was wondering if you could recommend which 5 you think look the best.

Thanks!

Q: Hello 5i Team
I currently own TransAlta Renewables (RNW) in a taxable account with a capital gain.
The current yield on RNW is 6.2% and the current yield for BEP.UN is 3.9 %.
The five year dividend growth for BEP.UN is approximately 5.5 % and the five year dividend growth for RNW is 3.0 % (with no dividend increases in the past two years).
1 - When BEP.UN spins out BEPC and BEPC starts trading, does it make sense to sell my RNW and purchase BEPC? Essentially I am trading dividend income for future capital gains and dividend growth.
2 - What date does BEPC commence trading, the BEP.UN press release July 16, gives a date of July 24 for BEPC.WI/BEPC (NYSE/TSX) and July 31 for BEPC/BEPC (NYSE/TSX)?
Thank you for all the clarifications posted for the BEP/BEPC spin out.

Q: I'm thinking the current time might be an opportunity to crystallize any significant capital gains ahead of situational uncertainty later this year and early in 2021. The deepening fiscal hole suggests to me that the government will be getting increasingly desperate, such that an increase in the capital gains inclusion rate (already signaled) and perhaps a TFSA contribution rate reduction might be in the cards (remembering the near halving of that rate immediately after the 2015 election of the Trudeau government). Also, the NDP evidently considers that virtually any preferential treatment of any kind of investment income is an affront to their concept of taxation "fairness", and their support will continue to be essential for the Trudeau government. Thanks for any thoughts you might have on this.
