Investment Q&A

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

Q: According to my discount broker, the Toronto Stock and Venture Exchange made the decision to eliminate "All or None" orders back in 2008. However, the US exchanges still offer the ability to choose this option.

This is a pain when selling low trading volume stocks, resulting in delays in exiting a position and multiple commissions. Are there any strategies you employ when you want to exit thinly traded positions?

Definitely something I will pay better attention to before purchasing stocks in the future!

Many Thanks
Scott

Q: Hello, I sold SYZ a month ago for tax-loss purposes. I thought I would buy it back if the share price was below what I sold it for (it is). I hesitate to buy it because I worry the co will cut its dividend to fund growth and/or reduce debt, which would hurt the share price quite a bit. Should I wait until the 3rd quarter reporting in November in the hope that the co will be clearer on its intent to keep the div as is? Thanks.

Q: I am curious if your opinion of these two firms has changed. I am interested if you see any catalysts for significant growth from either of them. I do realise they are - or at least were - high risk. Just looking for some play money attempts at a 10 bagger plus! Some of my comments are below.

1) In the last couple of years ZDC has managed to move in to something we might be able to call profit, and their market cap has grown from your $4 million estimate in 2019 to about $30 million today.

2) AMI you called a sell in 2020. Their fracking sand was supposed to be a hot thing for them for years now, and I do see "some" movement in that direction, but slowly indeed.

Q: Hi 5i team.

Looking to add a few penny stocks to my play money account.
When do they (ADCO) report next and what is expected please.
I have patience. Do you see a future for this company and it's stock price.
Can you suggest 3-5 small caps similar with better potential from here?

Many thanks.

Q: Wallbridge is in the process of spinning out its nickel properties to Archer Exploration. How does the larger version of Archer compare to Canada Nickel in terms of quality and valuation. Thanks for this great service,

Q: In my holding company trading account with a year-end of Oct 31, I plan to sell these losers in the next few days to offset earlier capital gains. I expect that these companies may drop even further during the tax loss selling season. Do you see any potential for any of these companies that might lead me to buy back the shares after 30 days?

Q: Hi, I have heard a market commentator mention more then once that there is good possibility that Quebecor will eventually buy the remaining shares and take TVA private. I understand Quebecor does own 65% of TVA. According to a newsletter I subscribe to It now appears quite cheap on a few metrics such as Price to cash flow, PE and has low debt. It’s also near its 52 week low. Only negative in can see is decreasing earnings per share from 2021 to 2022. Do you see Quebecor taking TVA private at some point in the future and if so why or why not? Please rate the probability on a scale of 1-10 whereby 10 is very likely. Many thanks for the excellent service that you provide.
