Investment Q&A

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

Q: I am concerned about my allocations to the banking sector. TD accounts for 16% of my portfolio and BAC/WFC combination 7%. All shares were purchased during the financial crisis and I have done extremely well with that move. With TD's US exposure I could pare BAC/WFC or reduce TD or continue to hold them? All shares are in RIFs. I am a conservative investor. Dividend income is good.

Thanks for your advice,

Q: Good Morning
I hold a position in TMX which declared adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.11 in Q1 2017, up 11% compared with Q1 2016and revenues of $186.1 million, up 5%. Cash flow from operating activities of $67.0 million, up 20%. They are also raising the dividend 11%. Any idea for the drop of 5.5% this morning? Do you suggest I hold or sell?
Thank you Marty

Q: Is there a case to be made for trading HCG with it sitting at current levels? I realize that your service advocates careful and balanced portfolio management but there do seem to be opportunities to harvest $.40/.50 cent swings.

As a second part to the question, do you see the company going to Zero or has it already bottomed out as CXR and VRX did before it with the short attacks. The underlying business seems better than it is getting credit for but perhaps that doesn't matter.

Q: Jerome Hass was Market Call, his comments, left me with the impression, that insiders were planning to privatizing this company. Is there no indication on who is looking at the company to buy?? Also, you stated to Ruby that the div. @ 81/2 % is risky, is that because the cash flow or the company could use the money to buy back shares. If they cancelled or greatly reduced the div. then possibly the stock would drop in value and make it cheaper for a buy out??? This seems to me, if any of this was true, would be very unethical, & would there not be some safe guards to prevent this Earl
