Q: In early December I sold half of a position in GUD for tax loss purposes. To put the money to use I purchased a half position in PHO as a "temporary" replacement.
The plan was to then sell PHO and repurchase GUD after 30 days.
PHO has done reasonably well since then. GUD has also increased.
Based on a long term time frame and no sector impacts would you stick with the original plan and repurchase GUD to a full position or would you remain with a half position in each GUD and PHO?

Q: Hi Peter and Team,
I have some cash sitting in a US account that I want to leave on the sidelines for now. I was thinking I should put this in something that gives me a bit of return but won't crash with markets if they crash. Is there a good proxy for cash that provides some yield that you can suggest which would be US Dollar denominated?

Thanks,

Marc

Q: Hi,
Thanks for your service. The info is very helpful. I had Veresen shares that were switched to PPL. These shares are held in a stock transfer company to take advantage of dripping. Veresen stopped dripping prior to the sale and it seems that PPL does not. My question is, did they before this purchase? Whether they did or not, do you know if they have any intention of starting. Thanks

Q: Can you explain in simple terms how ECN functions at a high level?

For example, in their rail vertical, are they leasing their own rail cars or connecting buyers to sellers while providing loans, or something entirely else? What makes them attractive for buyers versus going to a big bank? I'm trying to see wherein lies their competitive advantage.

Thanks.
