Investment Q&A

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

Q: I've seen you mention a few times that KXS and DSG are in the logistics business in one form or another. How much do their businesses overlap, and would it be okay to own both and still have a some diversification? Or is it best to stick with one and diversify elsewhere.

I'm largely asking b/c I'm looking for exposure to great Canadian companies (limited opportunities far as I can tell) and these are two that I'm interested in (already own KXS).

Q: With many mines and exploration companies shutting down or partially shutting down do you see a shortage of the supply of precious metals, assuming this is on a global scale. Same question for base metals. Just an opinion is fine since nobody can predict economic and market developments with any degree of certainty, a fact that you recognize and that has been very helpful to me in my investment strategies. And very much appreciated!

Q: Trading at ~$24 a share gives a market cap of roughly 1.45 billion. If they earned 297 million fiscal 2019, that would give a TTM PE of 4.89.
I know their properties are closed right now, but is this not a great buy looking out 2-3 years?
Any comment would be great. Are there any other companies you like that are trading at these ridiculous valuations?

Q: My question on these two companies performance during the past month.
They usually goes up or down together in the past. But the last month or so, POW decline and PWF goes steady and up a little. Any particular rationale for that?
Which one is a better hold in these turbulent times. Thank you

Q: I already own premium brand and saputo. I would like to add other food companies distributing to grocery stores. Any top picks come to mind? I would prefer large cap / core holding type but would consider smaller companies based on your recommendation. Does this thesis make sense in this environment? Thank you!

Q: Given the current economic situation, are preferred shares a good buy? They are all down in price and their dividends are up to 6 to 8%. I understand their upside is less than the common shares, but at the same time because they take priority over the common shares, the dividend and capital is safer than the common shares. I'm thinking of these as an alternative to a bond ETF, because the preferred prices have declined more. What are your thoughts? Is it better to buy individual shares or an ETF? Any ETF recommendations?
