Investment Q&A

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

Q: Just to clarify a recent Q&A regarding Parkland that someone mentioned that they almost sold PKI because "Andrew McCreath was shorting it at about $33, except for your reassuring comments.". In his monthly update, McCreath mentions "Parkland has been among the fund's largest positions this year and remains a core holding." Believe it is still worth holding for further upside. Thought it would be helpful if there was any confusion. Of course, as you mentioned, fund managers can change their view at any time and one should not solely invest one managers bullish/bearish viewpoint.

Q: 5i team: would you please advise on your opinion on these ETFs. Is it a good opportunity to buy into a new etf when the initial price is about 10$ or is this a misconception on value. In contrast to say vbal & vgro at the 25$ range? Also can you coment on mpcf . If it was a core holding what could compliment it as for diversity. Do all of the above have enough canadian exposure? Tks

Q: hello 5i:
I'm interested in PLC (should never lack for business), BUT I notice the company has a so-so record of meeting Operating Earnings, and a dismal record of meeting Operating Cash Flow projections. This doesn't inspire a lot of confidence in the company, and so provides me with a bit of a quandry. Can you comment? Do YOU think the company will be able to achieve or beat projections in the future, as they haven't in the past? Why?

Q: I am concerned about the ramifications of the retaliation by Saudi Arabia on Canadian companies as the press is reporting that Saudi Arabia is selling all Canadian investments at whatever cost. What are the implications and which companies apart from Covalon would be dramatically affected. And are we worrying too much? Always we worry the nature of the stock market. Lol
