Q: Good morning,

What are some small to mid-cap Canadian companies, that are somewhat under-followed or under-valued that you think growth stock investors should take a look at? Stocks along the lines of LMN, WELL, TVK, etc.

Thanks in advance. - Jeff

Q: Good afternoon,

I know that there are diversification benefits to owning ZRE vs individual REITs in Canada. But for a 1-2% portfolio weight, I wonder if I might be better off with a name like CHP.UN purely for income given the quality of their largest tenant.

I have owned ZRE for awhile now, but have to admit to being underwhelmed by its performance.

Thoughts?

Thanks as always.

Q: Hello Peter
Any idea why Nu Bank holdings is surging as compared to NVEI, LSPD, PYPL etc. Is it because Warren Buffet owns shares in the company? Is it worth starting a position?

Q: Dear Peter et al:

Recently a tech expert came on BNN and mentioned that going forward, it is the SaaS companies that will benefit from AI revolution. His top pick was ORCL. But he mentioned NOW and CRM as well in passing. I looked at these companies using Finviz's screener (free version!) and I see ORCL has a lot more debt than the other two.

What would be your choice? If not these three do you have any other favourites? Many thanks.

Q: Hi 5i,

Would appreciate your thoughts on GOOS recent earnings.

Market doesn't seem to be too happy with this company today but I didn't see anything that would warrant a 8% drop in value. Given the potential upcoming/current economic headwinds I believe they performed well and lowering their guidance to be a prudent move.

What am I missing?

Thank you.

Greg C.

Q: Do you continue to like TVK as a long term compounder? It's had a decent pull back to $32-33 off the highs. Would this be a good entry point? Recently announced a new credit facility but other than that, not much news still earnings back in Aug. What growth drivers do you see going forward? Looking to possibly sell GDI to buy TVK. Thanks!

Q: Hi, I have a goodly amount of my savings in HYLD for income, and now Hamilton has come out with SMAX. I like the idea of SMAX, as it is not leveraged, and only writes covered calls on 30% of it's holdings. I realize that it is brand new, SMAX, and not very big, but would you consider it to be a better choice down the road, as I am considering switching out of HYLD into SMAX in the future.
Thanks for your patience with these high yield covered call questions.
