Investment Q&A

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

Q: From your article:

Relationship Between Bond Prices and Yields

Does that mean that we should avoid buying bonds at this moment? And for the near future?
Thank you for your answer.

The SECOND part of my question was:

Should we avoid buying bond ETF at this moment?

Q: I watched the interview on BNN with Mr. Bedard this morning and a couple of things jumped out at me. This is a company that has so far produced 400 vehicles building a 900,000 sq. ft. plant that is capable of producing 20,000 vehicles a year and is the largest of it's type in the U.S. ..... Nobody does something like that without a good reason for it. That would be like British Properties making the Lions Gate bridge ten lanes because " Maybe we'll need them someday " .... And the CIBC analyst expectations of revenue of $92 million going to $454 million in one year ..... Sure can't see that on the basis of telling the salesmen to " Go out and see if you can flog these things " ..... My brain says there is a reason for the plant and the analysts expectations ..... Any idea what that might be ?

Q: I sometimes look at Keith Schaeffer's site "Investing Whisperer" when I'm in the market for snake oil. It is a very promotional site (mostly sponsored picks) and has a lot more misses than winners, despite the hype. The recommendations are mostly speculative and most have been dismal failures recently with the return of a healthy level of risk-adversity to the markets.

These reservations aside, I am intrigued by a recent pick that is at least showing some momentum: EWG. Peter, I'd be interested in your take on this one.
