Q: I am aware you had dropped FSZ from the The recent announcement of the drop in AUM has precipitated quite a drop in share price. My 3 part question is:
1) How safe would you say the dividend is?
2) Can you estimate the payout ratio at this time?
3) Is this the proverbial falling knife, or is there a basis for some share price (are we there?) where a buy is in the order?
Thanks! ... PK

Q: Retired dividend-income investor. I own Park Lawn (70% in my Cash account and 30% in my TFSA). I am down 10% in the Cash account (without the dividends) and down 45% in my TFSA. My current thought is to sell all of my PLC shares held in my Cash account, wait at least 30 days and then re-evaluate and potentially add to my PLC-TFSA shares. I still believe in PLC, but think it might be a while before a rebound occurs and I could capture the capital loss.
Question #1 = I just wanted to check with you that the above plan would meet the CRA superficial tax loss rules (STLR).
Q#2 = Further, my understanding regarding "STLR" are that it does not matter if you hold the same security in multiple accounts (RRSP, TFSA, Cash) and if you are up or down in any of these accounts, that if you wish to claim a loss related to a sale in the Cash account, as long as you don't buy or sell in any account within the 30 day window either before or after the "sale" date, then the sale will meet the CRA Tax Loss requirements. Am I correct?
Thanks in advance for the clarification...Steve

Q: Dear 5i team.
In early Oct. after the possible take private offer on NBLY was announced, I started keeping tabs on it. From the initial pop the price action is down on a daily basis, it seems.
When do we expect more public info to be released on this one? It sure smells like the old DND bait and switch example of the past year or so and we know how that one has played out. (apologize for the cynical DND comment, but it's the most recent example I could think of)
Is the arbitrage opportunity here picking up speed, or a sign that the market thinks this deal will not complete, thus stay away?
Many thanks for your help.

Q: I would like to put about 50% of my portfolio into safe, higher yielding (10%+) Canadian focused ETF's or Mutual Funds, and adjust my holdings as needed going forward based on sector performance. I feel that both Banks & Utilities are nearing lows and that a further correction may occur in the general market due to tax loss selling or possibly one more rate hike. Do you feel that the mix of ETF's listed provide a safe way to invest with the goals indicated? What % for each, as part of the 50%, would you recommend as a holding, and how would they be treated for tax purposes? Thanks for the great service and please use as many credits as necessary.
