Investment Q&A

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

Q: Just a follow up to an earlier question on May 8. Your answer to a question regarding ZCL was "selling such a large portion so close to the quarter end does not 'look' good in hindsight with the bad quarter. We will attempt to get clarity here,". I was wondering if enough time has passed for the team to get any clarity on insider's selling during a bad quarter. ZCL has been one I've been thinking of adding to but am hesitant with recent results.
Thanks for all your advise. Craig

Q: I sold CRH last week. I bought it a couple of years ago so I luckily had a 109% gain on it. I was thinking about getting back in but after VRX, PHM and CXR I just can't do it! I have these stocks:

ATD.B, AIF, BNS, CCL.B, CNR, CGX, CSU, KXS, GUD ,MG, MX, NFI, PPL, PBH, SIS, TOY, SJ, T, WSP, ENGH, VET, BCE and TD.

This reflects your balanced model portfolio pretty closely...What would you recommend to replace CRH in this mix?
cheers
Andy

Q: I thank you for your thoughts on CZO & NLN. However I am still interested in small cap companies and I am more than prepared to take some risks for some potential of mid term gain. What would be your 5 top small cap companies that you would recommend for me to put on my watch list???

Q: I have half positions in CCL.B, ZCL, GSY,ECI and PHO; full positions in SIS,KXS,SHOP,PBH and GUD. Growth from 'good' companies is my only consideration and I have a 10 year timeline. These companies are part of the growth portion of a balanced portfolio.
Please provide guidance on the following 2 questions:
Could you rank my half position companies with growth potential as the sole criterion.
Is it reasonable to increase one's stake beyond a full position in any company that has excellent future prospects? If yes, please rank my full position companies based on growth potential.
Thanks for your excellent service, as always!

Q: Hello;
I have full position of ZCL. I would like to take full positions in CCL.B and RPI.UN for 2 to 3 year horizon.

However, all of the above are in packaging industry. Is it advisable to put so much in one industry? Thanks.
