Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi it seems IT will most likely list on LSE and Canadians can hold in a vehicle that will still trade on TSX .(I have no access to LSE) Will the share price on the Canadian listing automatically correlate to the LSE listing
Also do the shorters shares become shorts on the LSE or the Canadian listing
- no position yet
Thanks

Q: I bought AGU for the decent yield in my income portion of my portfolio. Now with the planned merger I am concerned that the new company may have a lower yield and likely be more volatile due to higher potash exposure. If the deal goes through would you be keeping the new shares in the income portfolio?

Q: These three make up my tech sector which always seems to take the biggest hit when the market tanks like Fri. I am thinking of cutting one out. Which one would you consider to be the one prone to drop the most when the overall market behaves like this? I thought OTC would be the safest but it took the biggest hit Fri.

Q: SPB just announced the suspension of its DRIP plan. What is rationale for any company, like SPB here, to do so?

I always thought a DRIP plan is a good way for a company to conserve/manage its cash flow while the additional share dilution is really at the expense of its existing shareholder base. Hence it is to a company's advantage to have a DRIP.

What is your view on the pros and cons of a DRIP? Please enlighten us. Thanks.

Q: Hi, probably a delicate subject but what has happened with the growth portfolio? There are some big wins, but also some big losses. Obviously, not every pick can be golden but do you not have some safeguards on your positions such as technical sell points etc?
The income portfolio is great, but it is hard to have confidence in the growth portfolio at this time to be frank.

Q: I have a question about ATD.B.Was it the increase in debt from the acquisition from Imperial Oil that caused the drop in share price today or profit taking or something I'm unaware of? By the way my portfolio is up more than 52% so far this year, in no small measure, because of your sage advice.Thanks, as always.

Q: I am trying to balance out my portfolio sector weightings and am having trouble classifying where these 3 companies should go. I have all 3 of them as "Manufacturing and/or Industrial" whereas you have BOS and MG as "Consumer Cyclicals" and BDI as "Energy". Can it be argued that these are Industrials or should I just stick with your sector classifications?
