Investment Q&A

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

Q: Everyone, I am not sure when the information overload started but there is so much information out there that it makes you pick and choose the sites that you feel are the best for you. If you could list a few paid and free sites it would be appreciated. At this point this is my only paid site ( I use to have three) and all the free sites (CNBC and BNN). I really hate all the talking heads on most shows because they are usually promoting something. Clayton

Q: How safe do you think Magna’s dividend is?

Current earnings/cash flow seem to cover the dividend quite well, and buybacks could always be stopped/reduced if needed to maintain the dividend.

Even if it takes a few years for the auto industry to recover, Magna’s over 5% dividend yield at least pays us to be patient (assuming Magna can adapt to whatever the future of the auto industry looks like)?

Q: Perhaps am looking for unicorns. I have some money to deploy and I am looking for companies that have the balance sheet to ride out the current situation whether it lasts another two months or >12 months. My basic criteria were those potentially undervalued, dividend over 3%, div growth of at least 5% and a decent payout ratio. Any suggestions appreciated, thanks for your help.

Q: Hi Gang,

If you had 40K CAD to invest in an unregistered account for a short 2 yr old.. given the environment in which we are in....Where would you invest? Sector is irrelevant - CAD stock is a must (I can't stomach the hit on conversion) UNLESS there is a CDR you would recommend although I know you prefer the real deal. Can be one or multiple. Goal is to maximize growth while preserving capital. Thank you!

Q: I own CNQ (largest position), OXY, and CHORD in my trading accounts. I am down quite a bit in CHORD since the Enerplus merger.

I don't really have that much exposure to natural gas stocks at the moment. Would it make sense to sell CHORD, claim a capital loss, and buy something like PEY, TOU, or BIR?

Q: My international holdings (ex, US) comprise 15 % of my portfolio, which comprises 70% VE, and 30% VEE. Do you think that VIU would be a better option than VE at the same percentage? Thanks in advance as always.

Q: Hello. Gold and gold stocks have had a nice run. Do you think this move still has legs? If so, would CGL and XGD be good investments or are there others which you prefer?

Thank you.
