Q: 7:37 AM 8/10/2023
I was looking at the share price graph of KEY this morning. On your 5i Interactive chart it shows the price as $30.19 as of Sept 01, 2014. However TD Waterhouse shows the price as $49.92 for Sept 01 2014 and Yahoo shows the price as $49.13 for Aug 31 2014 so they agree.
This is a HUGE difference.
According to 5i I have broken even but according to TDWaterhouse and Yahoo I have lost a lot of money. Which do I believe? It makes it very hard to judge historical capital gains and makes it really hard to judge whether a company is worth investing in. I doubt that many people reinvest the dividends back into the same company which I think is what the 5i chart does.
What counts is what you actually paid. Please explain
If I had bought shares in September 2014 which price would I have paid?
Thank you........ Paul W. K.

Q: I know you hold this company in the Model Growth Portfolio. I have a small holding and it is down around 70%. My plan was to continue to hold and hope it improves as the macroenvironment improves. With the stock price so low now, I hope it has hit bottom. On the other hand, I do need some losses this year to offset gains. I assume by tendering my shares via the auction, I can avoid any broker fees? What are your thoughts on continuing to hold versus tendering shares via their auction?
Thanks.

Q: Is there any particular reason why the miners are doing so poorly against the price of gold? Is this a buying opportunity or is the market anticipating a downturn in gold prices? Would you prefer buying the metal (eg. GLD) or the miners (eg. AEM, ABX, BTO)?
