Investment Q&A

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

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: Allocations in my Balanced portfolio don’t match recommended % in the 5i model:

Above: TSGI by 3%, PKI by 8.1%, BNS by 4.4%, WSP by 1% , CCL.B by 1.7%

Below: TOY by 1.8%, ENB by 1.1%, AEM by 1.2

Don’t own GC, CLS, SLF but Telus with 1.6% allocation. SLF own in Income portfolio.

% for all other stocks in my Balanced portfolio do match 5i model. My Balanced portfolio is for 5 years or longer hold, currently at -17.6% loss.

Would you be recommending any changes to my allocations considering current prices / market conditions? Thanks in advance for your valuable opinion.

Q: As you have suggested for GC one should not buy more than $100000.00 in view of insurance coverage. I have 2 question
1-Is there a 5 year ladder type GC available-as package ?
2 -if one buys 5 of 100000.00 ladder type GC from 1 financial institution ( bank or trust- 1 year ,2 year and etc. ) how the insurance coverage would work ?.Is it each one is covered separately or only 1 insurance is covered for all, max. coverage is 100000.00 for all ?.Thank you

Q: I was looking at a lot of the negative comments about your stock picks - I think your service is the best value for money of any of the services I subscribe to - I have always subscribed to the idea - if something doubles I take some money off the table - usually half and then I let the other half do what it will do - I never get greedy and sometimes I have to take a bit of a loss. You have given me more good ideas over the years that I have done very well on - when markets turn - investors always want to "blame" someone - markets go up and down and it isn't always pleasant - but if an investment you own is down and the fundamentals are still overall positive - why wouldn't you buy more. This current investment environment seems to punish any company that misses analysts' expectations even by a small amount. All the investors that looked at the US markets especially and didn't take some money off the table - only have themselves to blame - nothing goes up forever and no one - even you guys - have a crystal ball - but you are pretty exceptional in the service you provide - especially for the subscription price.
