Investment Q&A

Q: NVDA up 200%, AMD up 180%, TSM up 79% and QCOM up 70% in one year. Can I have your opinion on which would have more legs for continued share rise given current conditions within these companies, etc. Thanks so much. Dam Dan

Q: Good Morning Peter & team,

so... As per your comments couple of days ago referring to a positive outlook for ATZ being dependent on the Oct 14 earnings call, I am assuming??? the very positive move today (up over 8%) is a result of a good report yesterday?

If you could please provide your opinion of the recent ATZ Earnings Call and any forward looking opinions you may have.

Also, in consideration for the very negative a brick & mortar report (malls primarily) which I saw yesterday along with the very positive on-line shopping results reported, are there any other companies which are related to on-line shopping you think we should consider moving forward in 2021come as we/if we come out the other end of Covid? Also, please confirm ATZ & LSPD are considered Industrials.

ps... presently my portfolio has a 5% position ATZ & 4.8% LSPD

Thanks for all you do

Q: Morning Peter and Team,
Let's assume there are 2 ETFs holding identical underlying stocks but one utilizes covered call option and the other one does not. Under what circumstances would each of these 2 ETFs provide a better return than the other.
Thanks for your great work.

Q: Business Wire reported DCBO files preliminary base shelf prospectus . Does it mean it can issue more shares in the future which may cause dilution ? I am puzzled by the stock price surge near market close. I appreciate your expert opinion. Thanks a lot.

Q: I found Artic Glacier inadvertently while sniffing around. I know of the product but am having trouble understanding how this company works with such a high dividend. Could you give me a brief explanation of the mechanics and the pros and cons for investing? Thank you.

Q: Since you are you are removing BEPC from the model portfolio , what stock will you be adding to the portfolio to replace.?

Q: On Oct 1, Beam Therapeutics announced an equity offering priced at $23.50/share; over the following days, the share price declined to as low as $22.24, i.e., below the offering price, though not as low as would reflect the dilutive effect of the new shares.

Yet today shares traded as high as $34.38; what, if anything, can we infer from this disconnect? Who would pay so much when new shares can be had at 2/3 the price?

Q: Recently heard that E-commerce is entering car selling and buying sector. Carvana Co. and Vroom Inc. are two US companies selling and buying cars online. I wonder if they are a rival to each other. If yes, who is the sector leader? What do you think of this space? investable?
Thanks,

Q: A few weeks ago you said that close to 40 % of the dividend paid by ZWU in2019 was actually return of equity. Would you know if this would be more or less true about most years?
Also, you don't seem to have a very high opinion of ZWU. Why then do you include it in your Model ETF Portfolio?
Thank you

Q: Government uses previous year total income to determine if one is qualified for GIS (guaranteed incoming supplement). I would like to know if the GIS received from previous year is also included in the "total income" calculation? The Government of Canada site does not seem to be very clear. Thanks.
