Investment Q&A

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

Q: ".We would expect a sale, if it occurred, to be in the low $4 per share range." Great call. Now I guess the question is, is $4.90 a fair price.

Q: I currently own 100 shares which is less than 1 percent position. So with such a small position I am inclined to sell now rather than wait and receive less than 50shares of the new company. Does that makes sense and what is the value of a bin share based on the deal-currently it is fluctuating quite a bit and I not sure what I should accept as the sell price.
Thanks

Q: Peter and Team,

Now that we have this offer for BIN, I am thinking about what to replace it with. I am mostly aligned with the model portfolio but don't yet own CCL.B, WSP, or MDA but have always been interested in them. My BIN position is close to 5% of the portfolio following the recent market declines and the offer for BIN. Should I buy any one of the three I named from the model portfolio or split the position and buy two of the names?

Thoughts?

Q: With gold holding around $1100 US (in fact a relatively high gold price historically) and energy costs relatively low (the highest input costs), I'm considering buying a company like Goldcorp as their profit potential should be improving and that the shares are so low and hated. Any thoughts?

Q: SJ is being hit fairly hard today (5%) on above average volume. Anything to explain this or is it just a bad market and some profit taking?

thank you

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

With the recent market turmoil and economic conditions expected for the next little while can you name 3-5 companies that you think would be absolute BUYs? Whether they are solid companies that have been brought down with the general market, or ones that can actually benefit from the current conditions.

Thanks,

Jordan

Q: Good morning

Can you please provide an update on WB including payout ratio (safety of dividend) and balance sheet. It seems all the stars are aligning for this company this winter.
It has had a nice pull back with the market and would like to know if you think is a good entry point for income and some capital appreciation?
Thanks
