Investment Q&A

Q: In some answers, you have referred to some lending companies being exposed to a "rate risk". I am not clear what that is / when it will impact a lending company. More specific to GSY....is it exposed to a rate risk? How will anticipated falling rates affect it? I know that new highs ( or at lest here a recent one) do not concern you but given its run up in recent months, are its valuation metrics still looking favourable?
Thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Hello 5i Team

My understanding is all (12 issues) of the Brookfield Office Property Preferred shares (BPO) were removed from the S&P TSX Preferred Share Index (TXPR) effective Friday January 18 (the quarterly rebalancing date). My understanding is the BPO shares were removed because S&P downgraded them to P-4 on December 21, 2023.

However I can find no mention of this re-balancing event on the S&P website or other news sources. I have previously seen new releases from S&P when companies are added/removed from the S&P TSX 60 and S&P TSX Composite index.

After reviewing the holdings listing for the CPD etf (which tracks TXPR), the BPO shares are now removed.

Is there any other news sources I should be monitoring? This seems to be a material event that S&P did not disclose?

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i
What do you think of the short term and long term outlook for DOO after this mornings announcement of Bain capital reducing share ownership by 2M shares at $91....., I think the percentage reduction was from around 20.8 % to 18.8 %...
Should current share holders be worried .... does this drop represent an opportunity
Thx

I am grateful for the service you have provided over the years.

Q: I was going to ask if now would be a good time to take a small position in PKI anticipating price appreciation once the Boardroom issues are settled but given PKI is hitting new highs today it seems investors are not worried. Would you consider starting a small position in PKI now?

Thanks for your advice.
