Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi Peter,
Sincere thanks for all the great advice. What's your short list of TSX listed companies that have a large percent of their income from south of the border, and/or from places other than home ? TCN, CSU, ESL have all been terrific. Thank you.

Q: I think I got stopped out by high frequency trading and am quite annoyed. I put on a stop loss and saw that there was a momentary downdraft on the chart, poof my stock was sold and the price immediately jumped up about 5% after it took me out. I read that a new stock exchange is opening in Canada that will not allow HFT. Can you tell me something about it and will it be convenient for a small retail investor like me to use? Thanks for your help!

Q: I previously wrote about the release of the portfolio in response to a number of other questions and concerns previously posed by other members. There were concerns that members wanted time to analyze the portfolio before trading started. There may well be a flurry of activity at the beginning and it appeared some members wanted to have an even starting point. Not sure this makes a huge difference but that seemed to be their concern.

I just read a question this morning about growth companies and embedded in the response is reference to releasing the growth portfolio later today. I'm a bit disappointed that (a) there was no advance notice of it's release. I don't consider same day notice as advance notice and (b) the portfolio was't released at the beginning of a weekend to give members a chance to digest the information.

Your service is stellar but I think you dropped the ball with a thud on this one.

Q: What is you view/outlook on BTO? Looks promising for the year ahead but it seems that gold prices under $1200/oz keeps BTO from moving. Is that a concern or do the merits of the company and growth potential be the reason for investing in spite of gold make dips under $1200/oz?

Thank You
Marc

Q: What do you think of WXM? Seems like an interesting way to get a Canadian index etf with a momentum overlay. Performance has been very good even in the face of the oil and gas meltdown on the tsx. Is this kind of strategy proven to work over long periods of time or is it a flash in the pan? Thanks for the great service.

It looks like quite a miss to me. I would like your opinion on the company. I am way under water and wonder if it wise to hold onto it for a turn around.
Thanks

Q: Please provide your opinion this US ADR: Barclays preferred share series D. Please comment on the risk of it being called and where you expect the yield to be over the next 12 months.

(I like this ADR because its has great yield; good for US income; and there is no US tax withholding on the dividends.)
