Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hey 5i,
First, let me say that I think your investment research subscription is a fantastic value for the money. I love the question and answer portion, it answers many of my questions without asking.
That being said, I got my butt kicked on PKI today. Sure didn't see that coming. Did I miss something? Do you still feel that PKI is a good selection? Of my TFSA it is 10%...should I pick up some more on sale? I like monthly dividends...safe?

Q: Happy New Year 5i! My husband and I are going to put the full $5500. into each of our TFSA accounts. We are 67 and 69 years of age and fully retired. We still would like growth and income in these accounts as we hope that we won't have to touch these accounts for some years to come. What would you recommend for us? We are so appreciative of the excellent advice that you offer.

Q: Firstly, thanks for the great service you are providing to us retail investors. I am spreading the word. My question is:

PKI seems to be stalled at the 17 dollar mark for the last 3 months or so. It has grown a ton in the last year. Is this just consolidating here before more growth or do you think it's growth has peaked?

Q: Parkland Fuel (PKI). I am just starting to take "ownership" of my portfolio and I hardly have financial analyst skills. However, I noticed the following about Parkland:
- it is trading near its 52 week high
- it had over $200 million in intangibles on its balance sheet
- its P/E ratio seems high and the forward P/E is less
- its dividend exceeds its profit. I don't really understand the theory of ignoring non-cash expenses in determining an appropriate distribution amount, unless the actual requirement for repair/replacement is less than the recorded distribution.

Am I being too cautious?
