Investment Q&A

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

Q: There is a consistent discrepancy between what appears as the book value in my Qtrade and RBC account and what appears in my 5iresearch portfolio. I've verified that the share numbers and cost prices are correct. The differences are much higher on my American stocks where the MV is always higher than what shows in my original accounts. Is there an explanation for this?

Q: Hi guys.

Not a question, more a suggestion.
Just read the article on NBLY and found it very comprehensive and informative and I thank you for that.
After reading your article, the name of the company sounded familiar and I checked my email to see where from.
On May 13 I received an email from iTrade letting me know that the issue was coming and they were looking for Indications of Interest.
Please don't take this wrong , but it would have been so nice to have had your write up earlier so we could have taken advantage of the new issue offering.
Of course timing would only be valuable if the IPO comes out at a premium and stays there, but reading your write up it sounds like it will.

Best

Q: Good morning all. I currently have a 1/3rd position in LEV and a 2/3rd position in NFI. I see these stocks as complimentary of each other. However I am considering either eliminating or reducing my stake in NFI in favor of LEV. Considering history and experience of NFI vs opportunity and rapid deployment for LEV (and only one quarter on record) would you consider this a good move or just a speculative move at this point?

Q: I'm wondering if you could recommend a free watchlist (stock) tracker. I've used Globeinvestor for years but now they've limited its use without a paid substription.

Thanks as always.

Q: Would holding GUD be close to the equivalent of holding cash right now? I understand it’s a security and nothing is 100% safe but when I look at the cash in hand along with Goodman’s shares (which I assume he’s in no rush to sell) it’s probably around the current price per share. Would you see this as a viable alternative to a piece of the cash portion of a portfolio with nice potential upside long term? Thanks as always for this service!

Q: Considering adding a small position in my RRSP of FIH. I thought with all the bad news coming out of India this might be on sale, but price action appears to be hanging in on the high side. This would appear to bode well for when India gets Covid under control, thus making it attractive going forward. Your opinion and analysis please.

Many thanks.

Q: I am concerned regarding Mr Vounassis background at Bombardier. Given that Bombardier has been the worst performing stock in history and an ultimate example of corporate welfare, it is not a good name to have on a resume.
Also, sometimes applying methodology from large corporations to smaller companies does not work so well.
I hold some XBC and will continue holding but I have concerns.
Your comments please
Thanks for your great service
