Investment Q&A

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

Q: Good morning,

Long time holder of CAR.UN, and although I like it, watching TD go lower and lower seems like a buying opportunity to me, and I know you view TD as having potential over the medium/long-term from these levels. Seems to me like there is greater price appreciation potential, and a greater dividend while things settle down.

I know they are different sectors, but what are your general thoughts on this potential switch? 5 years from now I think it may look smart..... Thanks. - Jeff

Q: Commercial real estate is in big trouble. Do you have any recommendations how to take advantage of the declining fortunes of this sector, in Canada or the US? Is there an inverse commercial real estate etf? Have the stock prices of the sector already been priced in?

Q: Is VNQ a good investment in a stagflation environment, or does its current issue of office and retail REIT exposure going to counteract that situation ?

Are rising interest rates the only other reason for its underperformance recently?

Is it possible to come up with a metric that compares how expensive / inexpensive it is today as an investment relative to it's past ?

Thanks.

Q: The REIT has made an offer to purchase 12,500,000 units at 15.50 dollars per unit. It represents about 25% of the total REIT issued units. Since the price offered is much lower then my purchased price and the stock is held in a register account I do not feel too compelled to sell it. You have indicated in the past that the REIT is a valuable asset and likely with time it will recover.Is this still the opinion you hold ? Is the dividend would remain to be paid after such transaction by the REIT?
Thank you

Q: Can you comment on Killam’s recent quarterly results and how they compared with street expectations please. Also how do they compare to similar sized peers like inter rent? Is it a good buy for the multi-residential space? And what do you think of adding to this space now in the macro cycle? Thanks

Q: NWH.UN released its earnings today and had perhaps a little bad news - AFFO did not cover the distributions in the quarter - and some good news - deleveraging plans seems to be on track and the CEO comments even raised the possibility of share buybacks once the deleveraging plan is further advanced. What do you make of todays results and these comments in particular? Has it turned the corner? Optimistic or pessimistic?

Q: Good evening
Can you please comment on this REIT ? Dividend was not cut since 2013 and according to my broker's record there was considerable insider buying during the last year. Lately it is dropping. Would you consider it a sell, buy or hold ? I will appreciate it if you can also comment on the dividend sustainability
Thanks

Q: Results look good. In my opinion I see 4 important tailwinds. 1. Credit tightening- making it more difficult for home ownership. 2. Housing shortage. 3. Interest rate peaking- improve margins in time, and re accelerate growth 4. Pricing power- ability pass rent increases on. Does this cover them or did I miss any others. Where do you see this company 3-5 years from now. Full purchase make sense at this time?
