Investment Q&A

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

Q: During the process of analyzing a companies quality the management team is often referred to as an important factor by many analysts. During your many years in the industry who would rank on your top 5 all time list of CEO+company combos for creating investor satisfaction. Or in other words, if someone started a brand new company today who would you invest in on day 1 based solely on their reputation?

Q: Hello Peter, you've recently answered some questions as to current investment options for growth-oriented TFSAs, including the above companies. My TFSA has funds to permit three "growthy but not OVERLY risky" new investments. Whether from among the above choices or not, can you , considering the recent changes in market prices, please suggest your top 3 current choices to add to a TFSA (on top of my fairly balanced overall portfolio). Thank you!

Q: As a newer subscriber to 5i, i am interested in purchasing your BE portfolio. The above names have had huge run ups and I don't know how to approach them. Which ones are buyable at these levels?
Of the ones you deem buyable, can you comment, for each, as to whether a half position or full position should be taken.
And can you rank these in terms in terms of your preferences at current levels?

Thank you for your excellent service, as always.

Q: Hello,

The following 5 companies are on my buy list to complete my portfolio:

PBH
TOY
NFI
BCE
CAR.UN

I have room for two in my TFSA, two in my non-registered and one in my RRSP. How should I divide the above 5 stocks into these accounts?

My plan is to buy on pullbacks. But I'm thinking about buying CAR.UN now because it has already pulled back on the mortgage news. Does this make sense?

Q: Own HLF took the ride down and back up at a nice profit but is there anymore left. Like the rationnalisation story im progress. Dowgraded at Scotia this morning due to price runup but it looks cheap to me on a forward p/e basis ? Thinking of maybe switching to PBH which is a lot more expensive on p/e basis.
Would like your take on these stocks ?
Thanks for the ongoing learning process !

Q: Hello,
May I have your opinion on selling part if my Amaya (3%) and Boyd (7%) positions to purchase Premium Brands. As I am over in consumer discretionary and hold only a 2% posit in Saputo in basics. This would bring basics up to approx. 5% and discretionary down to approx. 16%. I also hold aw.un, bpf.un cgx dhx.b and gsy. In your opinion is there a better rebalancing option?

Your input is much appreciated.

Q: 2nd try:

Peter, I read your answer to Richard, September 8, 2016, about the slow-and-steady value creators and for the Industrial sector you gave PBH. TMXmoney.com and 5i Coverage summary in their classifications put PBH in Consumer staples (defensive) non-cyclical sector. And now, you have 2 problems: find a favorite for the Industrial and is ATD.B still the one for the Consumer staples sector?

Thanks for all you do for us.

Q: I have been watching PBH for awhile and was going to purchase then it starting breaking higher again. Is it okay to star to pick away it at this level. It has had a good run and I wonder if I should wait for a pull back as the fall usually has times of volatility or buy some now and add on market weakness.

Q: Hello Peter and 5i team,
Our sector percentage in the consumer staples space is a low weighting , having only ATD.B. We would like to add one small cap and one large cap. In the small cap space we like PBH. Is it a good time to enter this sector now and what is your favourite large cap?
thank you as always for your opinion.
