Investment Q&A

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

Q: I often read mentions of "full position" or "half position" here. What is a "full position" in a stock? Pardon me for a naive question.

Thanks.

Q: Retired income oriented long term (10 year focus) investor.
Already own CPD, CVD and XPF.

In the process of rebalancing asset allocations with the objective of increasing fixed income, and given the current interest rate environment can a case be made for buying one or all of these stocks? Why or why not?

Any other thoughts also appreciated.

Thanks.

Q: What is your view of structured products such as PaRs and PPNs? I had thought you had previously commented on these products but cannot locate. These products appear to be designed by the financial industry for selling rather than real investor needs.

Q: I would appreciate your take on Saputo's results.Revenues are up for yoy and qtr vs 3rd and last year but earnings appear weak. Is this a one-off due to the recent acquisition or something more concerning. Quite frankly I have difficulty judging the impact of IFRS accounting on the income statement. I look forward to your insight.
Thanks
Ian

Q: In your answer to a June 5 question from Russel ( about no withholding tax on US dividends when held in an RRSP), you said "However, the important distinction to make is not what currency the ETF is based in, rather what country the ETF is listed in." So, are there any Canadian dollar denominated ETFs listed in the USA?
If so, does that mean there would not be any withholding tax on dividends from them if they were held in an RRSP or a RRIF, and does that mean that there would be an advantage to investing in them ? What are your thoughts about this idea? Thanks.
