Investment Q&A

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

Q: Is there some unusual trading/manipulation taking place with Amaya's stock? AYA on the TSX was set to close at $31.00 but then there was a sudden jump to $29.70 (ending 1.69% down for the day).

On the other hand, Amaya's stock trading on the US OTC markets (AMYGF) ended the day 4.02% up. That's quite a large gap between the two markets.

Anything to be concerned about?

Q: Hi,

I hold Stella Jones in my RRSP and know you like the company. I'm considering selling my position in CNR which is held outside my RRSP as many see it as expensive at this point and adding SJ in order to maintain exposure to this sector. Can you compare the valuation of the two and provide your thoughts on my strategy.

Thanks

Q: "Start shedding the deflationary plays such as utilities, consumer staples and telecommunications because that story has become as old and tired as the bond rally." So writes David Rosenberg in a basically anti-bond pro stock piece in the March 27 Financial Post where he assesses the impact on bonds and income stocks of interest rates rising even slightly. Do you think the 5%+ (growing) yield on BEP would offer a sufficient cushion over most other utilities in the face of rising rates or should profits be trimmed as Mr. R. suggests? Thanks, J.

Q: Not sure if it is just me, but I've noticed a lot of people having or expecting babies lately. Many investor typically talk about investing in companies that cater to the baby boomer (ie. aging) generation, but can you list a few opportunities that could benefit from an influx of newborns? I was thinking DHX could be one, but not sure if your team had any other ideas. Thanks!

Q: My apologies, as I tried to send an email from my phone earlier today, and had problems with service, and phone.
I thought I had completed my dudiligence on syz, and seemed like a great buy coupled with insider buying. Technicals indicate oversold, as well as RSI is low.
Markets were not good today, however what is wrong here, and should I be selling to average my loss.
Thanks for the great service
