Investment Q&A

Q: Both SpaceX and Databricks have hinted at IPO’s in 2026. I own competitors Rocket Lab (RKLB) and Snowflake (SNOW) respectively. How concerned should I be, that investors will flee RKLB and SNOW and buy the IPO’s? Would you continue to hold RKLB and SNOW? Thank you.

Q: Wondering about selling Walmart and replacing it with Atd.. have held Walmart for short time but have more interest in a Canadian company now.
Thanks, Lesley

Q: Hello Peter,
Your opinion please.

With US going to 'run' Venezuelan heavy oil, what is the market reaction and impact to WCS, the producers and the pipelines that move Alberta oil to the USA? Is it time to go underweight on the energy sector for this year?
Regards
Rajiv

Q: Would this be a good time to take a position in FAN? Thanks for the great service and Happy new year to all.

Q: Happy New Year all!

I would appreciate your recommended top 3 ETF’s for investing in the Indian economy. Consider moderate or low risk only, focusing on best expected performance over the next 5 years.

Thanks as always,

Dave

Q: I am a buy-and-hold total return value investor. I have a concentrated portfolio of eleven stocks. I don't worry about asset diversification. I hold FFH and BN in the financial space right now, but I'm considering selling BN and replacing it with a Canadian bank (not an ETF). What do you think of that plan? Which Canadian bank would you think would best fit my strategy? Could you please list three banks, in order of preference?

Thanks.

Q: I have held Savaria for several years now, and it has performed steadily, but has lagged in growth compared to many of my other holdings. I am wondering if it might be more prudent to consider adding to my positions in either ISRG or ABBV, or perhaps consider another company with stronger growth prospects.

My overall exposure to health care (I deem SIS to be a health care-related company) is roughly 7%, and SIS makes up about 1% (was larger initially, but grew less than portfolio over time). If a lower exposure to health care is still tolerable within a portfolio attempting to maintain diversification, are there another positions outside of the health care space that might be prudent for me to consider? Thanks so much, and I look forward to your response.

Q: In my portfolio, I’m only interested in long term compounders. For example, in the compounding software portion of my portfolio I own CSU, TOI, LMN, VHI and PNP. I am reviewing my allocation of Canadian Industrial stock holdings. What would be your top five small to mid cap Canadian compounding industrial companies that you own for 5-10 years. Thanks for your wonderful service and Happy New Year.

Q: looks good on paper, my novice opinion. whats your view? thanks

Q: Can you provide a list of your top 3 down trodden stocks that have faced more macro-related challenges, but still quality companies. I’m looking for companies oversold with a 2 year investment timeline.

Q: Please give your assessment of the impact of the recent Lundin Mining acquisition. The markets seem to be reacting postively, but what is your take on the new CEO and the company framing itself as a "multi-asset" nickel-copper company? Has the company finally transitioned from exploration to production?

Q: I've seen conflicting MER numbers depending where I look. From 0% to .71%. Can you tell me what the correct MER costs are for U,UN?

Thanks,

Mike

Q: Any reason for the drop in price of this ETF over the past few days? It normally doesn’t bounce around too much.

Q: Do XUSF and ZXLF track the same index in the U.S. ? If a Canadian listed ETF is just owns the US ETF (which actually owns shares), is there a double MER being charged ?
