Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi there Bought a bit more of SYZ after what I thought were excellent quarterly results. Since then share price has been dropping steadily. Other than inside selling any other idea why this might be occurring? Another question I pondered about was how an insider sold 500000 shares in a couple days when the stock is so lightly traded. Do you think that was a single block trade - a prearranged transaction?

Thanks

Stuart

Q: Hi 5i: Re Gildan. I just logged on to ask about Gildan's drop today and I've read your response to the earlier Gildan question. I was concerned that Gildan was very exposed to a Trump attack, given that they changed their minds about buying American Apparel's US manufacturing facilities, and only bought rights to the brand. The news item I read on RBC Direct described the large layoffs in California and notes that Gildan employs thousands outside the US. The American Apparels "brand" is all about "American . . . .". Seems to me Gildan is very vulnerable; one might even say "asking for it"!. What do you think?

Q: Hi, Parkland Fuels stock reacted very well to CST Brands acquisition, a few months ago and stock traded as high as $31. Price has retreated to $27-$28 range recently. Is there any reason, in your view, which is keeping a lid on its price? There was also a guest on BNN recently who claimed to be short the stock. I had a position from before and added at $29. What do you think ? Thanks

Q: I am up 100% on Boyd in my RRSP. I am slowly dispersing my RRSP and putting the money in my non registered account to collect dividends for a passive income lifestyle.
Boyd only pays 0.6%. With that in mind, would you replace this stock with another or buy Boyd again for its growth prospects. What would you replace this stock with in an investment account to boost dividends for income. I own most of your income and balanced stock picks.
