Investment Q&A

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

Q: A year ago I took less than a full position in Citigroup that has now grown to more than 5% of my holdings. What are your thoughts on trimming to about 3 or 4% and with some additional US funds investing in PACW Pacwest Bancorp. It looks like this would allow a better growth outlook for the funds as well as double the dividends. If a suitable investment what would be the maximum PACW % that you would consider prudent? On the Cdn side I already have full postions of TD and BNS. Thank you.

Q: Birchcliff is showing some market momentum recently and today traded close to 5 times the daily average number of shares. In replying to others questions on the company, you have mentioned that in your opinion it could be acquired. What companies might be potential buyers, what might be a takeover price and what timing might a takeover occur? Thanks

Q: I have been zero weight oil/gas for quite some time. I do not believe there is a long term sustained move in these commodities. That said, am I being foolish not to have some exposure. I have looked at BIR and it looks attractive. I was recently reading a big bank research report on the company that has a target price of 9.00. They are using a 65.00 oil price long term. They are a gas producer. Go figure. I get there is a correlation but what long term gas price are they using. 65.00 in my opinion is pie in the sky. All commodity investments in my opinion are not investments, but a trade. Maybe I have answered my own question.
Your thoughts.
Much appreciated.

Q: Looking forward to fall gas trade.
Looking for some small or midsize gas producers that have access to the Alliance Pipeline. Could you suggest 2 or 3 good gas stocks to buy and hold to Xmas. Would Bonavista be one.
Thank you for your response.
