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 and Staff

If we end up in a longer (say 1-2 year recession) can you provide any comments as to which of the following could suffer most or least from vacancies or unpaid rent based on their tenants ?

FCR.UN, SRU.UN,NWH.UN,HR.UN and REI.UN

I guess I am also asking which one (s) appear to have been beaten up too much in relation to the others and why

Thanks for all you do
Dennis

Q: 5i,

Your thoughts on 2019 year end results and do you think this is a good point to step in with 1/3 position. I like the div. and think perhaps with more the low interest rate enviromnment and recent and possibly ongoing Fed rate cuts we will be again, or continue to be, in a positive environment for REITS in general.

BTW thanks for all the help and vigilance during these volitile times.

Cheers!

Q: Hi,

In an otherwise well balanced portfolio, with a slight tilt towards growth I do hold the above REITs for income. As part of a new investing philosophy (to me) I'm aiming to reduce my equity positions from 33 to 23 over this year. Thus, I need to sell one of the above and re-invest the proceeds in the other three. With an eye towards income preservation (ie. sustainability of dividend) and growth, which of the above do I sell?

Cam.

Q: Hello,

Happy New Year! What are your thoughts on SIR corp. They seem to have an attractive dividend..but ..is this a red flag? or a good time to pick up a few..NWH.un had an attractive dividend a few years ago with over 10% and then had some decent capital gains..Would you consider this a similar opportunity? Thanks.

Regards,

Shyam

Q: I am in my early 30’s. In terms of creating a strategy for buying and selling stocks shouldn’t I just always be buying stocks, even if the market goes down?

If I have a 30-year run way until I start withdrawing or using the funds wouldn’t it be best to just find great companies to average into?

Your thoughts are greatly appreciated in advance.

Thanks,

Dave

Q: Hello, if you had to buy either CSH.UN or NWH.UN today, which one of these two companies would you buy? Could you also compare their debt? I know one should not look at past performances, but over the last three years NWH.UN has done much better than CSH.UN. Would you say that NWH.UN is also indirectly related to health care? Thanks, Gervais

Q: Can you recommend a safer play in the Health Care space than tCOV and GUD? I'm invested in two health care ETFs (CSH and NWH) but I'm holding these for the dividends rather than growth.
Are there ETFs you think look promising that focus on the Health Care space? I have about one full position to add to the Health Care industry.
Thanks!

Q: With the world feeling a little uneasy about a pending recession, I want to keep only holdings that will weather a downturn. I'm not trying to time the market, and want to hold stocks, that while they may dip, have good balance sheets, good management, and will likely see a recovery. Others I will sell and hold the cash. Above are my current holdings. Do you see any that may be susceptible to excessive weakness in a recession and would therefore meet my sell criterion? Thanks,
Kim

Q: In reference to my last question you made a couple of suggestions. I parted ways with CHR and NFI. You also suggested that I lacked diversification in some areas. I have accumulated cash since my last question to be deployed at an appropriate time. I have listed again the stocks in which I am currently invested in. Percentage allocation in each was listed in my last question. I have wonder if you maintain an investment profile of your clients. Doing so would enable you to provide more appropriate advice and/or suggestions. It would negate the need for clients to keep repeating investment objectives. Thanks
