Investment Q&A

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

Q: Your opinion on Metro (MRU) and possible substitutes would be appreciated. When I purchased MRU about a year ago I had looked at it as a "park & hold" type of investment. However, after reading your answer to someone else's question in May/13 when you indicated that MRU is not that kind of company, I realised my mistake. Now it seems that MRU, along with other companies in the same business, are experiencing a tough time and maybe it is time for me to move on. Do you think a switch to either Dollarama (DOL) or Gildan (GIL) would be advantageous? If so, what would you favour at this time as a replacemant (in the same general sector) for MRU - DOL or GIL or something else - I already own Couche Tard (ATD.B) in the Consumer Staples sector?

Q: I greatly appreciate your insights and this service.

I have a position in RDI. I would appreciate any opinion you can offer on this stock. It is up from a year ago by roughly 100% in revenues and carats of diamonds found. It still makes a small loss.

Q: Could you please elaborate on an Enterprise Value as a benchmark in establishing a value of a company?
I am usually looking at the Book Value but maybe the Ent.Val is more accurate?
For example : Is it correct to assume that if the Market Cap value is lower than the Enterprise Value
the market is trading at a discount to the true value of the company and it might be
potentially a good buy (considering that other ratios like P/E, Revenue growth etc. are also favourable) ?

Huge thank you for your great market insight.

Q: I currently have a 12% position in consumer discetionary stocks that includes a 6% position in cineplex, and 3% positions in dollarama and tim horton's. I was thinking of adding between a 2% and 3% position in Alimentation Couche Tard (ATD.B).

Do you see anything I am missing in this weghting and basket of consumer discretionary stocks? How much of a weighting would be considered too much for a consumer discretionary sector?

Thanks again. I probably wont be writing in again till after the new year so to all the staff at 5i, and its subscribers, have a terrific and safe Christmas and holiday season.

Q: Good Morning,
I find it a little bit harder to find a good stock right now. From your model portfolio, if you would sell one stock, which stock would you replace it with?

Thanks.
