Investment Q&A

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

Q: Can you help describe for us how a sitting CEO, also be involved with buying that company? Doesn't the CEO have privileged information that most other shareholders don't and also isn't there a conflict of interest to float a potential offer as it can artificially manipulate the short term stock price? It's very confusing to me that he can do this without undue influence.

Q: Hi,

Are you concerned that large Cdn tech companies are only able to how earnings through acquisitions? CSU's organic growth over the last 3 quarters is essentially flat. Why aren't they able to grow their existing businesses? Do you expect organic growth to return when the macro economic environment improves?

Thank you,
Jason

Q: Hi Guys,

When can we expect a new report on Gamehost?

The last report was Jan 2015 at $13.14 and was rated "B". The stock price is now around $9.15. Do you think it is still a "B" or after a 30% reduction in price is it now an "A"?

An updated report would be appreciated.

Thanks
John

Q: I want to add one maybe two positions to the Industrial sector. I currently own CNR and RBA. I am considering KBL vs AVO for one of the new positions. I have sold AVO two times already because of frustration with the stock performance. I think AVO has more growth potential, but I like the steady performance of KBL excluding the latest correction. Should I take another swing with AVO hoping third time will be profitable or go with KBL or take positions in both? Please help me decide. Thank you

Q: I have held Enercare and Just Energy for approx the same amount of time. ECI has performed very well while JE is stagnant. Both have provided a Nice Income Stream which is important. I am considering selling JE and adding to ECI for Income and growth. I am reducing my income but expect that dividends as well as the stock price will grow. ECI's position would become approx 3% of my total holdings.

May I have your opinion on this move and some of the reasons.

Thank you,
Brian

Q: chartwell and sienna (sia) and extendicare (exe) have been trading well lately, their payout ratios and dividends and earnings look solid

is there any reason they cant continue to make new 52wk highs? are valuations too stretched in this space or does the growth that these stocks have deserve the valuations?

thanks
