Investment Q&A

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

Q: Last question on these two companies as late December, and I am interested if your take has changed. I just sold CAT, and am looking at repositioning into one of the maintainers of its equipment; largely to get out of the $US and potential risks to CAT of Trump policies.

What is your take on these 2 companies and which would come out ahead for an investment now?

Q: I do not have any engineering co's in my portfolio so am thinking about adding STN or WSP. Could I have your thoughts please: which is best, what would be a decent entry point, would you recommend at these levels for a long term hold or wait for a pullback? Any other companies you would recommend. Thank you!

Q: Hi,
I am thinking about investing in some BCE. What would you say the intrinsic value is per share? I am also intrigued by BRK.B. What do you think?
At share price are CSU, TOI, and Lumine bargains respectively?
What sort of market are we in? Up, down, or sideways?
And, would you suggest 10 companies which are great (little chance of capital destruction), AND offer some upside?
Side questions: Magna and Rogers have bounced back...a lot, did 5i recommend buying at those low points?

Q: Hoping you can provide some comments around what the bond markets might be telling us right now and what it might mean for equities? Lots of rumblings with respect to Japan and rates/spreads in general lately. Is it worth a report/blog? If not, any insights you can provide here in answer would be gratefully appreciated.

Q: Hi Team,
I hold VHI in my tfsa, down 20% now. Would it be considered a "high grade" move to sell it now and buy CSU now that it is also down as much or more than VHI in the last year? Would my return prospects from here with CSU be just as high as compared to sticking with VHI? Would you advise this move?

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: Peter; I’m assuming you saw the options exercised today by the Chairman. It was announced on the TSX , but not on the US. It also traded over 2M shares in the US. Were there any large blocks in the US traded and does the Chairman have any restrictions on the optioned shares? If not,would it be an overhang. I don’t think it’s the most liquid stock here but in the US it seems much better. Could you just comment on the news ? Thanks.

Q: Have 11 holdings in a Non Reg account, 5 of which are ETFs as above . The other holdings are BAM, CNQ, EIF, ENB, GLXY, PNG, ZDC.
Would like to reduce the # of ETFs and distribute proceeds into ETFs/Equities that are left.

Q: If a stock isn’t a must own, but a like to own but on the skids. What is your preferred strategy? Is it always for the bottom relative on technicals and especially a turn around? A quick sentiment shift?

Would you employ the wheel strategy if they approached a comfortable entry; NFLX, FTNT, NOW. Would be my current candidates that have a reasonable chance of righting the ship.

More of a learning question from the team in adding a bonus position if you will, or just collecting some premium if it doesn’t hit.

Love any insight on this area and these examples. Thank you!

Oh AI report was fabulous, very much appreciated.
