Q: First National (FN-T) is down over 6% today, presumably due to talk of federal mortgage rule changes. I like the stock but would appreciate your views about the current outlook and whether this might be a buying opportunity or a falling knife situation. Many thanks.

Q: Hi Team,

When buying a stock, sometimes there is mention of "full position or half position". How much are these in percentage terms of a portfolio? Also how small a position can be in absolute dollar terms to be a meaningful contributor?

I really admire your ability for quick turn around and succinct answers to all the questions all day long.

Q: I don't know if this question comes under your umbrella. It concerns money borrowed to invest, with the aim to claim the interest for tax back. I have done a Google check but i am not sure whether all loans can be used this way. currenly I use a small margin credit on my accounts, which comes to 3.75 per cent. I know that I can do much better than that, if i borrow on my house. But, would such a loan be seen as tax deductible for investing services.
thanks
