Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi, Can you name a few companies say 3 Us and 3 canadian companies who have been prolific in creating value for their shareholders either by buying back shares/not increasing their share count while growing consistently. A small dividend if applicable but leaning more towards growth in earnings. Preferably with some sort of monopoly or advantage in their field. Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,

We have a 2.5% position in CN, and are a bit underweight in the industrial sector. Would the ongoing rail line blockade and slight decline in share price represents a buying opportunity? Or would a new investment into WSP, for example, be a better strategy? (Our other industrials are CAE, SIS, and TFII). Thanks in advance for your valued advice.

Q: TFI International has indicated it will be offering 6 million shares for public offer.
Am I correct in assuming it will be at a discount to current market price which will put some short term downward pressure on the stock price?
If this is correct would it be prudent to sell now before the price is announced and buy back in when the "expected" downward pressure comes into play?
Thanks
John

I seem to be really lacking in the Industrial sector. Do you have a few good suggestions to look at. I do like dividends.

Q: I currently hold TFII in my portfolio and am considering a switch to SIS for a long term hold. Which of the these two look best over the next 2 or 3 years to you? Is it worth a change?

Q: Hello 5i team,.
I have MX and TFII in my margin account that I'm thinking of selling to claim the capital loss.
Do you expect these two stock prices to go up significantly in the next 30 days?
Would you advise to buy them back after the 30 days?
Thanks

Q: Hello 5i,

I currently hold these stocks in an unregistered account. I have journaled over the five companies into a US account for the dividend. I would like to add possibly two more companies that pay their dividend in US funds. I have the rest of the balanced fund and some growth in my TFSA. Any suggestions to add here, and if it results in duplication, what would you remove from the list. I am well balanced and would likely have to sell at least one current stock and could just add the other if you can give me two. Was looking at Nutrien or AQN. Didn’t pull the trigger on AQN last year at 12.5.

Thanks for the assist.

Thanks
