Investment Q&A

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

Q: Back in July, David was asking about CSAV to park emergency fund money in and you seemed to like PSA more because of the liquidity of a larger fund.

It looks like CSAV now has around $300M in assets. Is that large enough to remove any concerns about liquidity? CSAV has a slightly lower MER but their monthly payout seems to fluctuate more so I'm not sure which to choose for emergency funds.

Thanks

Q: At what point do you sell the stock or double up on your share count. The ‘fundamentals haven’t changed’,only peoples perception on its stock price has changed and I have a 5 year hold. I have contemplated waiting for another sharp drop and buy additional shares - like double my present position. OR I thought that if the stock hit the 200 day moving average I would sell. FYI - I bought the stock at $40 ish and sold at $80 ish. Bought again at $100 ish and sold at $150 ish. Finally I bought it again at $180 ish and still own the stock. Like all of us I have owned stocks that went up and down dramatically only to hold on to long, ie Valient.

Q: 1. I hold Methanex shares and bought them at 90 CAD.
I like the company fundamentals and also the fact that they recently buy back their shares. As I have some capital gains up to date, I want to know if you would recommend me taking half a position and taking advantage of the tax loss and buy k back after 30 days at the current lower price or I don't do nothing and wait for the stock to go back up?
2. Is there a co-relation with lower interest and preferred shares and bank stocks not performing well ? I own ZHP and the stock has been trading sideways for some time.

Thank you

Q: I am selling my home and moving, have not yet found a new place to live, so I will have a lot of cash to park for an unknown length of time. My plan would be to do a high interest savings account at Oaktree or buy the purpose ETF. My wife will kill me if I lose any capital…
Do you have any better ideas?
Thanks!
