Q: Classic Warcraft came out and the new call of duty releasing in the fall along with Overwatch 2 and Diablo 4 possible release(s) in 2020 (one of them)....what are your thoughts on this company and possible resurrection! The stock really went down starting in Nov 2018....but I see in the past month the stock seems to be on the move and I see a few analysts recommendation to buy. Thoughts on buying and timeline?

Thank you guys for the great site.

Q: could you give me more details about how these debentures work?
with a price around 129 $, what is the current yield?
Are they trading is US or CAD ?
I understand that at the end of march of each year the company can announce that they redeem them in a 5 year period. Hypothetically, lets say I buy them today at 129$ and on March 31th 2020 they announce the will rebuy them (at par, so @100$ ) in march 2025. What would be the reaction of the market on the next day. Would the price slowly goes down on a 5 year period ?
What influence the debenture price ? (how CSU is going, interest rate, something else)?
I also have 5 % in my portfolio in CSU, if I had debentures up to 5 %, would you see that as a concentration risk ?
Would you have a few similar products to suggest in other quality companies ?

Q: I see the value of that stock always going down. I would have thought that they would benefit from a lower yield like the REITs, but it doesn't seem to be the case. Could you give me your opinion on this stock and what could happen to it if the Fed continue to lower the yield? Should I continue to hold expecting an improvement or accept a big loss and sell it now?

Thanks

Q: Hello, could I have your thoughts on the recent PAYS revenue guidance (didn't seem bad) and stock drop under $10 now.

Also just a thank you as I do read lots of negative comments on the board and people tend to cherry pick one big loss (TSGI, COV for recent ones). Anyways I wanted to add that you have liked/loved some awesome stocks that haven't gotten attention because they aren't Canadian or in your portfolio. Examples - AYX and TEAM, massive gains since these stocks were first in your Q&A and you had positive comments on questions.

Q: the other day, you mentioned PPL is a favourite in the mid-stream pipeline category, I understand PPL recently made an acquisition and most likely doing an equity issue as part of the finance. I'm think of taking a position in PPL as part on my income portfolio but am wondering if should just go ahead, or take a partial position or on the other hand, wait to see if there is such an equity issuance and then buy in the open market as there is generally a pull back in the stock price at that time......thanks for your insight.....tom

Q: Hello Team,
Made money with many recommendations but couple of tsunami like COV and TSGI wipe off most of the gain. How could I have managed better in terms of adhering to 5i advise and holding on to these losers longer than should have been? now these two stocks off the charts from the portfolios.
hope this will help many other members who are in the same boat as I am.
Thanks

Q: I'm looking for a world-wide ETF to invest in long-term, without exposure to Canada. I came across XAW. It seemed like a wise choice. I like it because it's world-wide, but doesn't include Canada, and has no bond holdings.

I am currently saving for a downpayment and have about 30% of my portfolio in XBB (which will be used for the downpayment). Plus a bunch of money invested in Canada already.
1. What do you think about XAW?
2. Any other ETFs in a similar space as XAW I should consider?

Thanks!
