Thanks for the info.
Mostly in cash myself - planning and reviewing stuff still - doing ok otherwise.
Energy - just in trusts (Acclaim/Viking - taken out and renamed - good money overall).
Golds - Yeah still in AGI, CKG (never added - from a couple of years ago so yes AGI is really in the black).
Some of the poor ones might wake up and I will exit accordingly (MR; ARQ; AQI and others I just wouldn't want to bring out of the closet). Slowly I am purging the junk.
Had a royal PITA this last tax loss season. A stock I had - delisted - I offset some gains and told TD to sell dribs and drabs over the years (no point in taking it all in one shot; no commission; more of a function - they issue you a letter showing the removal); well this past Feb 05 the blasted stock somehow listed in the US - Nasdaq - oh yeah, still deader than a doorknob but that listing prevents me from removing from my account. CURSE YOU, AQUASCUM!!! (I have to walk a fine tight rope - we get baby money and the feds screw you - baby money is based on NET and losses from previous years reduces your taxes but does not reduce net; in my prime with the kids at their current age; also affects the spousal money).
I do want some specific (value as you say) stocks - but I would like to add some "funds" that don't force me to pick and choose. iSHARE/ETF yadda yadda. Will look around. Thanks for the AMD - one of the reasons (fundamental; no I would not enter until technicals looked better) - is that they have a dual processor out some other things that Intel has been dragging their feet with. Chips are doing very well in tech right now.
OT: Investment Reporter likes CRY.TO and GND.TO. Had some go forward positive comments on ATD-SVB.TO as well (entering a "fractured US market" will help them). METRO apparently owns about 10% or so - but they seem to be more keen on ATD.
Didn't catch the entire debate last night - I still shake my head - "why don't we, in Ontario, have any single candidate pushing our agenda like Quebec does?" LOL! Oh well, even if I could have a BLOC sign, I couldn't - I live in a condo.. rules are rules. Harper held up well, IMO.
Grab and Maul said that Martin released the hounds. Martin can talk and talk and talk but the corruption stuff is there. Sort of like the BTK killer - could be member of the church and sometimes a nice guy but.. still a serial killer..
Had to laugh - about a week ago a chinese guy was interviewed "who would you vote for". He went Layton - blah blah blah.. "and his wife is from China". (ROTFLMAO!!!) I suppose Layton never had that on his agenda huh? Families huh? Chuckle.
Haven't seen Kirby for quite a while.. our PC candidate use to be part of the Town Council. I guess if the guy likes Layton because of his wife, I like my guy because of our pools. I know where the Green Party home is (HA!) Should be interesting down to the wire..
