Q: I had been considering a purchase of BPY.un, but upon looking at their 2018 taxable income calculation, I see that while the full-year distribution was Cdn$ 1.64155, the total tax allocation to be reported was $2.47504. I'm interested in achieving less taxable income, not more. So, scrolling further down, there was another table for 2018 Canadian taxable income for a fund called Brookfield Office Properties Exchange L.P. , with the same full-year distribution, but entirely return of capital. However, I cannot find any information on this particular fund, so I'm hoping you can help out.

Q: Any ideas why COV jumped up 18% today? I know it is low volume but I have been holding it for a while thinking that It was being unfairly judged by circumstance. I am still holding it because I have sold stocks in the past just before they jumped up, sometimes I have sold stock the day before they jumped up 25 to 30%. i.e. I sold CSU a few years back because it had gone up to $135.00 per share. I panicked thinking that a 30% profit should be taken. Lesson learned.

Q: Please comment on the latest results published on December 11. Mr. Market did not react positively. Significant decrease in the share price since publication (-15%). Do you view EnWave as a good buying opportunity today? Is there anything to be concerned about?

How do you view the company in the long term?

Thanks !

Thanks a lot for your excellent service.

Q: Good afternoon,
I would like your take (pros and cons) on the following please. I have owned Sylogist for some time, am comfortable with SYZ and familiar with it's trading pattern. The position is in my TFSA and after trimming at the top is still at these levels up approx 50% on the balance.
I am thinking of moving it into my cash account and with the current yield treating it like an income stock with some growth potential. I would also top it up SYZ to a 2.5% position.
I would then replace the value in my TFSA when making my 2020 contribution with the intent of purchasing a more “hopefully” growthy”stock.
I hope this is not too much like asking for personal advice.
Thank you for your input.
Brian

Q: Not a question but in your response to Helen on 9 December, you incorrectly indicated that she would pay a total of 10% commission. While you multiplied the commissions by 10, you forgot to multiply the stock purchases by 10 hence the error. Her total would be $100 commission on $10K purchases or 1%. Happy Holidays.

"If your trading costs are $10/trade, we would first consider these, for $1,000 in 10 stocks would be 10% in commission in total. "
