Investment Q&A

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

Q: Wajax and Transcontinental have several things in common : mid single digit p/e, moderately high yield, relatively safe pay-out ratio, and a turnaround in earnings seems possible. Can you think of any other companies whose profile hits the 4 previously mentioned criteria. Thank you.

Q: Greetings 5i team,

May I please have your expert analysis on the earnings of these companies.
I have been holding EMP.A for a while and have good profit. Is it time to bail out or still a good investment?
Is it time to step in to TCL.A?

Thank you in advance and have a safe and fun holidays

Q: Hi. I own TCL.a in a non-registered account & NFI in a TFSA, both at a huge loss currently. My questions are:
1) What do you think is the risk of continuing to hold these stocks now?
2) What do you think of their potential over the next year and in the years beyond? Do you think they can recover?

Since NFI is inside my TFSA, should I sell it and buy something else? TCL.a could sell for a capital loss. If I have to sell either one, which one should go first? Or should I wait another quarter before doing so? Thanks for your help.

Q: TCL seems to be dropping a lot going into earnings and/or the news regarding the publisac issues in Montreal - it looks like a civic subcommittee has recommended banning this flyer distribution system though it is not a done deal (from what I have gathered). My question is: does TCL break out the revenue for Publisac? How material is this if it happens? Or is it more a case of yet another negative news item for a company that has been dealing with too many for too long.

Q: I currently own TCL.A and NFI in my RRSP account and underwater by quite a bit and wonder if it would be better to sell one of these stock and buy BAD? I would add BAD but then I will be overweight in this sector as I also own WSP, SIS and CAE.
Thanks

LNR Cons Disc:Industrial
TFII Cons Disc:Industrial
EIF Industrial:Financial
