Q: I’m down on GXE in my TFSA and am thinking to add a bit more. It looks like they had a good quarter recently and there’s been lots of insider buying. What’s the outlook like for growth and the security of the dividend? Is there anything else to note other than being a small company in an out of favor sector?
Q: Do you have any insights into GXE? It's oddly holding at .64 despite Oil rising and other companies moving higher. Beyond the dividend cut and strategic review flop, is there anything else you can add about their prospects? Thanks.
Q: G'morning 5i,
I'm sitting on a fairly substantial loss on GXE in my TFSA. In trying to decide what to do, I first waited for the strategic review to complete, hoping that something positive would come of that. When it didn't, I next decided to wait for its latest earnings report, hoping for something positive there but, from my review of the numbers and despite management's rosy outlook, I don't see anything re-assuring there. either.
My inclination is to sell, take the loss and do something useful with the now severely diminished funds.
Occasionally in the past when I've made that decision with a losing investment, hindsight has caused me to regret it, and I think perhaps I should have been alert to signs that a turnaround was in the offing.
From your objective perch do you see any reason to hold GXE given the milquetoast strategic review and what I interpret to be the less than satisfactory recent earnings report?
I look forward to your thoughts. Thank you.
Peter
