Q: Good Day,
With these companies taking huge hits lately isn’t this the time to be greedy when others are fearful? Do these companies deserve full positions with a long term outlook?
Thx

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan,
Thanks for the great service Peter and Ryan. It is trying times for portfolios

We picked up AMZN (2%), KXS (1%), ZCH (2%) and GOOGL (1%) in the last few days. Also owned is BABA (3%), NVDA (2%). We have 25% in cash available. Is tech recommended to be 15% or 20% of a portfolio as of today with all the recent drops? I am going against the grain here for a bump up in 2019. Of AMZN, BABA, KXS, GOOGL, FB, MFST, BIDU, & PHO, and an outlier BYD.UN which 2-3 stocks are most appealing for a recovery?

Cheers
Jerry and Debbie

Q: If Kinaxis reported some sales slipped outside of Q3, have analysts adjusted these numbers into Q4? I'm probably simplifying things here but in the next quarter if the market has settled and the results affirm this slippage then would the stock price increase? I like this company and can't help to think this price dip is a huge opportunity for those who can wait?

Q: I own shares of KXS. It’s been a bit of a wild ride. Today the stock is around $68, a price it last reached about 12 months ago. With this reset on the price the mkt seems to be saying its future potential as an investment is equal to or worse than it was a year ago; that despite a year of operations, the company is not stronger today than it was a year ago. While I would be hesitant to buy more until the share price decline stops, the risk/reward for KXS for a longer term investment is becoming more compelling. Your views?

Q: Either way, I suspect Kinaxis will be a horror show. today. However, for the purposes of assessing its Q3 performance, isn't the eps number, 19 cents, not 10 cents as was mentioned in a previous answer this morning.

"Prior to the effect of the Standards, Profit for the third quarter of 2018 was $5.2 million ($0.19 per diluted share), compared to $6.0 million ($0.23 per diluted share)".

Thanks.

John

Q: I am looking to add a growth-oriented stock to a pretty conservative bluechip portfolio, with investments in financials, energy/resources, telecommunications, drug/healthcare and transportation - mostly in Canada. I believe I could benefit from more growth-oriented stocks in other sectors and have recently acquired small positions in GC and TSGI. What growth-oriented stocks would you take right now, keeping in mind that I am a DIY newbee with only a modest ability to read statements and analyze risk

Q: I am looking to add up to 10 new positions to my TFSA with a 15+ year outlook. Would you recommend any alternate companies to consider or replace from the ones I mentioned above?

Thank you
Dave

Q: I am a growth investor with an 8 to 10 year timeline. Regardless of sector weightings, in the current market would you either start a new half position in Parkland Fuel OR top up to from a 4% to a full 5% weighting in Kinaxis, Savaria Spin Master and Premium Brands? Thanks in advance, Greg.
