Investment Q&A

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

Q: Every once in a while, I see a question asked about this company, and your response always says that being small they have small cap risk. While that is true, I have never seen another company that has been so consistently stable between 1.90 and 2.00. Rarely strays away from the $2.00 mark. For 5 years now. So, as a monthly dividend payer, at 8%, this is one of my go to stocks when there is market uncertainty. No growth but consistent dividend.

Q: Hello 5i,
I sold NFI, PSI and CCL.A as tax losses on October 25. Should I buy them back now, just add to the positions I now have or are there other equity opportunities to consider in replacement. I am a retire, value, dividend investor, 60/40, evenly distributed with many from the INCOME MODEL PORTFOLIO.

Q: More and more analyst seems to believe we’ll have a not so bad start of 2020 finally. Industrial signals have been weak, but it appears to have a good chance for a come back. What do you think of a 5% position in vaw, because material (chemicals among others) have been underperforming as a way to play a recovery of the general industrial sector. Rest of the portfolio is well balanced.

Q: In my TFSA I have had a nice run with SQ and was thinking of selling it out and "starting over" with a couple or three of the above listed stocks that you have recently identified as having high potential ( with the same? amount of risk that came with buying SQ a couple of years back) What do you see as the pros and cons of such a move and if implemented which 2 or 3 would you chooses at this time?
Thanks,
Terry

Q: GDI: 5i seems to like this company at 30 x FPE, a lot of debt.. What am I missing? In general, I only buy large cap "dividend growers". I have only bought 2 growth type stocks before BAD and ACQ which I held for a few years and sold at huge profits - both never to return to their previous highs - so, never considered them core positions. The same would apply to GDI; however, a little gun shy on this one at these highs.

Q: While I know your focus is not US companies, I have US funds to deploy for a longer-term, relatively conservative position. The outlooks for Moody's, Hyatt Hotels and VISA all seem to be positive stories to me. Considering their current prices along with other factors, which of the three would you consider the best prospect and why. If you could name your '2nd place finisher', that would also be appreciated.
