Q: does tax loss selling only apply if done when the calendar rolls over i.e. 2013-14, or can I sell something now ((Aug 29, 2013) and buy it back a month from now (Oct 2, 2013)and use that loss against potential taxes? This way I could get the tax loss and buy back in while the stock is in the duldrums (RPL)

Q: Good Morning Team. I have a question on Mr. Market. I own Silver Wheaton @ $35 and have ridden it all the way down. Lately my patience has been rewarded and I was getting excited. Monday it hit about $30.60 interday then proceeded to drop about 12% by close Wednesday. This in light of Syria, a bull market in silver and silver equities, and a generally frightening outlook for the US and global financial systems. I don't get it. Who is selling? Why? Is the system just rigged to screw the little guy like me. Makes zero sense!

Q: Hi Peter and Team, regarding Novus, NVS, is it normal for the stock to be halted this long? Based on your experience, your thoughts on why they don't let the stock trade would be interesting. Clearly they must be in negotiations but why not clarify with any material information and let the stock trade again? Also, for those members interested in NVS there was an interesting blurb yesterday on BNN, The Close, by Andrew McCreath with Michael Hainsworth. Thanks!

Q: CGI Group (GIB.A) has recently had its accounting questioned by Veritias research of Toronto. According to a recent article in the Globe and Mail the analysts there are of the opinion that the recent logica acquistion in the UK is being used imaginatively by the accountants at CGI to artificially inflate future earnings at the company. Nothing illegal is suggested but its rather dubious if true. Any comments?

Q: Hi Peter,
I have a question about FCR. I increased my position in early Aug and it is now about 5% of my portfolio. I also own HR.UN, CUF.UN, and AX.UN, approx. 5% portfolio each. These stocks continue to slide, so I'd like to ask you whether you recommend to hold, sell and cut losses, or buy more for either of these? I am looking for long term growth/income rather than immediate one. Thanks a lot!

Q: Hi 5i,

I've done a bit of desktop work on CMI, but wanted to get your views. I know you've commented on it in the past, so my ask is more around i) what do you think of valuations today ii) the sector in which they operate in iii) management.

Have you ever met management. Are you familar with any of the board members and their affiliations with other companies (good or bad?)
