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

Q: Could you clarify this recent answer, does this mean you consider these more or less risky than average?
"We would consider PRL a 7/10 on risk and NBIS a 6/10 and TVK also 6/10."
Thanks!

Q: PLEASE MAKE THIS A PUBLIC QUESTION

Hi Team, A while back you introduced the up-vote button on questions. Would you consider adding a down-vote button? Or give the option to members to hide or block questions from certain individuals? Thanks

Q: Retired, dividend-income investor, with mostly a blue chip, buy-and-hold-strategy and trims-adds when dictated by asset allocation.

Technology has been taking it on the chin, to say the least. My proxy for this sector is XIT. When the dust settles, I'd like to top up my tech sector by adding to XIT.

My 2 options are:
#1 = sell NTR in my RRSP and direct the proceeds to XIT.
#2 = trim NNRG in my TFSA and direct proceeds to XIT.

So, the question is....which do you think has more upside over the next period of time....NTR or XIT or NNRG? Please rank these 3 for upside.

My current thinking is to go with Option #1.

Thanks for your help....Steve

Q: Hello Team,

I read your comments regarding Magna and your decision to downgrade it to a sell for the obvious trade war reason but also other ones. Do you place LNR in the same basket?

During these difficult times for Canada and our leading companies I appreciate your insight more than ever.

Thank you,
Adel.

Q: CLS is near $100 today, would this be a good moment to initiate a position? Would you wait further and keep the cash for now? Would you initiate a position at 2%? It is for a TFSA and a long-term hold. Alternatively, should I bolster my position in two other growth names (PRL to 4%) and KSI with a position similar to that in the growth portfolio. All in TFSA. Thanks.

Q: Stocks are being pummelled. But as always, hopefully they will come back but it may take a while longer than normal. Trump is not normal. If one understands the risk, would you suggest buying some names that are being particularly hit today (eg SHOP -15%)? If so, can you suggest a few names?

Q: What should I understand about “Target Price?”

For example, what is the implied time horizon?; is this meant to guide investment decisions of buying and selling based upon forecast highs and lows?

Since you include this in your Company Profiles I assume that it provides something valuable.
