Investment Q&A

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

Q: I had an open order to sell 200 MSFT at 33 and it traded up to 33.36 after the order was entered but the broker didn't fill the order because the high temporary "spike" price was only available to institutions, not retail. Does this sound like a plausible excuse or do I have a complaint that I should elevate? Thanks, J.

Q: Hello Peter and Team,

Quick thoughts on Faro Technologies, FARO, and how they are positioned to take advantage of the supposedly rapid expanding 3D printing world. Also, a quick comment on their financials and value would also be appreciated. And if you are familiar with the 3D printing world, what company would be your best bet in this growing field.

Q: Good Day. On July 29th, Haliburton (HAL) announced a 'modified dutch auction' in order to re-purchase shares. Are there specific advantages in this process as opposed to a regular re-purchase of stock?
Can I have your outlook on HAL for the next 2 to 5 years.
Finally, any plans for a US Model Portfolio that I see is in place for Canadian securities.

thanks,

Q: Hi,I have picked up great profits from JNJ (50%) and GIS (40%)
but I think a substantial market correction is coming.
Should I sell these 2 stocks and buy back in on the dip with the likes of these 2 or MCD,DIS,CL,GE,DD,BNS,for example?
I know it goes against the premise of "Keep the good and sell the bad but those profits are very tempting. By the way, I also hold FSZ and CGX, 2 of your recommendations, but I see those as growth stories that will keep climbing - keep up the good work.
Regards. Robert

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

I know its way too early to discuss Third Point Re, TPRE as a company, however, knowing that the CEO is a veteran and their Chief Investor is Dan Loeb, do you think this could be a long term hold?

Q: Hi Peter, great show yesterday . I would like to invest in more US stocks, but can't decide if the US dollar is going to down or up. It seems quite constant in the 96.5-97.00. Do you have some thoughts on whether this is the best time to convert, or should I just sit on the sidelines for some financial news that would determine this decision? Thanks so much. Ireally depend on your opinion on all financial decisions now.

Q: Hello 5i Team,
What are your comments on the announcement that the US Government has launched a law suit against BAC. I'm in this one for a long term hold so not too concerned about volatility as I think the price will increase in the future.

Also I should ask if you think BAC is a good long term play in the US financials or o you think others will fair better? Perhaps a US financial ETF with a small grouping?

Thanks again for all your comments, replies and work.
Paul
