Friday Jpm recovered most of thursdays losses but not Ry. How come?
Higher interest rates and low unemployment should be good for the banks
Confused

Q: I recent sold UPST for a tax loss and purchased AFRM, it has been 30 days now - would you rebuy UPST or would you purchase another in the same sector with the same risk profile and upside potential?

Thanks for your service!

Q: I had thought rising rates would be good for insurance companies, but they're certainly not reflecting that. SLF only has a P/E of 8.85 but it's still going down quickly. Great West has done no better. How do insurance companies perform in a rising rate/inflationary cycle?

Q: When looking for stripped bond offerings on my broker's screen, I can see an entry named Sagen Mi Canada that offer's a good yield with a credit rating of AH/BBB+. I know nothing of this company. Would you have any insight on the matter, or should i just keep passing on it?
Thank you

Q: Hi!
I got into CIX a few months ago at around $20. I am happy to hold and wait to break even at least. Would you be able to suggest how long that will wait will be? Also, are the fundamentals still in place for CIX for the market to pay $20 for CIX.
Not to worry...it wasn't a massively concentrated position or anything! : )

Q: I live in a city where every other car seems to be a Tesla. I noticed on teslas loan page that they only deal with the three banks mentioned above when it comes to financing.

Will this materially move the needle for any of these institutions in the long run?

Thanks

Q: We owned Onex since 2006, we are from $20 to$ 64. Not that great given the meagre dividend. It is about 1% of total portfolio. we have some newly realized cash and wonder if we should augment the position to 3% given the low valuation now.
could you suggest other well priced private equity or conglomerate, (Claivest?) We are looking at the long term.
Thank you.

Q: Can you please compare GSY from the Growth Portfolio and BNS from the Income Portfolio. I believe that 5i continues to be very positive about GSY, but in this present economy, BNS looks like a much safer bet to me. GSY seems have about $1.7B in debt, whereas BNS has about 198B in cash or $348 per share. BNS has a forward dividend of about 5.4% and GSY is 3.7%. If you could only invest in either BNS or GSY today, what would you choose for a 5 year hold?
Thanks!!

Q: Hello, CDN Banks are trading at or near their 52 week lows. BNS and CM have a dividend yield of over 5% now. Do you believe, their valuations have reached close to or near their bottom and it makes sense to add, for income and growth, with a time horizon of 5-10 years. If so, what will be your preferred order for these names ? Thanks

Q: Hi Guys
With everyone saying they don't understand their financial statements isn't this a red flag?.Also when everyone loves a stock,this to can be a cause for pause...remember Nortel Networks..
Assets are like 9.5x the total shareholders value of this company, isn't this a recipe for disaster in a rising interest rate world?
Thanks Gord
