Investment Q&A

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

Q: Came across a Company CHC student housing They are in the process of raising $ 163.5 Million dollars to fund new acquisitions They have very few shares outstanding

Are you familiar with this management team Would you recommend buying this company for primarily income and a long term hold Your previous comment was not very favourable on the company

If you don't give this one a buy recommendation could you suggest another income stock

Thank you so much

Q: Would you consider today's price a very good entry point? I understand there may be some uncertainty surrounding the intended use of funds from the US asset sale but that seems way over done? Also, someone on BNN mentioned that it would likely soon not be considered a "REIT" by definition based on it's income mix and therefore, was being dumped by REIT focused funds regardless of fundamentals. If this is the case, I would think that stock price here is an excellent buying opportunity or is it going even lower? Your thoughts/comments are appreciated

Q: From an investment standpoint, would you rank Brookfield Property Partners (BPY.UN) in the top 10% of real estate investments listed on the TSX? Which others would you consider for an investment ahead of BPY.UN?

I already own a 4% weighting in another Brookfield investment - BIP.UN. In your opinion, would I be better diversified from a company standpoint by considering an alternative real estate investment?

Thanks.

Q: Hello - bought some shares in the summer of 2014. The share price has since declined approximately 50% since then and the dividend practically all but eliminated. Would you recommend holding with a view for the long-term, or do you feel that the risks of continuing to hold this stock are too high?
Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i team .
can you update your opinion on MEQ ?, on a P/E seems very cheap (it does not pay a dividend). analysts are expecting good growth in NOI for the next two years. How safe it is ?.

Q: Hi Peter. I would like some exposure to the consumer staple sector for my RRSP. However I find the dividend yield too low (less than 2%). Does it make sense to buy a REIT like Crombie that rents all the Sobey's and IGA stores and pays out a distribution that is more that five times what Empire pays out in dividend? Even if Empire increased its dividend by 10% every year for the next 10 years it still would not catch up to Crombie. Thank you in advance for your advice.

Q: How do you rate EQI in the current environment. The Globe is full of negativity about the debt load that the average Canadian has and this does not seem to be hurting the the mortgage stocks too much. Home Capital is sliding a little, but EQI trades so few shares it is hard for me to get any sense of strength or not in the stock.
