Investment Q&A

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

Q: Recently this stock peaked @$53.24 and has graudually dropped to the present level $45.30. This stock seemed to be the poster child, and needless to say I added to my position in the high fifties, and now I am underwater.
Is there anything I should be concerned about this stock, or just hold. Earning have always beat forecasts, so I have a difficult time understand the performance.
Your advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance

Q: In following your recent responses you seem quite comfortable with AVO and its momentum combined with its risk/return factor. Using that as your base measurement could you list 3 more that you would feel have the same or more momentum and you feel the same level of return/risk confidence. These would fit into my Tfsa

Q: Hi guys,
What are your current thoughts of DOO. You had a B rating on it in a previous report. The share buyback was suppose to be over in July, but recently I keep seeing more insider buying. Is this new or a continuation of the previous major share repurchase announcement. You commented in the report about their engine division (rotex?). I believe their are making these for Scarab jet boats now. Any guidance on the sale of those boats and how that 2015 sale panned out for increase engine manufacturing now that it is out of their SeaDoo brand? I hear that this engine is the best for small jet boats, so perhaps with the good marketing of Scarab, sales could be in a better trajectory. There has been good price movement in this stock lately, but I am nervous about going into a consumer based manufacturer company. You had also commented on large USD based debt in the report. As of late currency swings could be more relevant to earnings. (Also- full disclosure- i want want for me lake Huron Cottage) i could be biased. Thank you.

Q: I started an RESP for my granddaughter in May 2017 with equal weights of PBH, MX, BNS, SIS, KXS and ZCL. The total return of the RESP is 10% YTD. When ZCL had a poor earnings report in November 2017, I sold those shares and purchased ENB. Going forward, would you suggest any changes to the current holdings, and what would you purchase with new contribution money? My best wishes of the holiday season to the wonderful 5i staff, as well as all 5i members!

Q: I sold Dhx.b for tax loss selling and maybe repurchasing after 30 days. However, the high debt load does concern me. Do you have any alternatives in the consumer discretionary sector at this time. Not looking for a trade but rather a long term hold.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all of you at 5i.
