Investment Q&A

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

Q: For several years I have owned Saputo stock. Since 2016 the share price has essentially been flat. Throughout the developed world I believe that on a per capita basis, milk consumption is declining, while cheese consumption is increasing. As a rule I prefer investments where there are built-in growth drivers and am questioning if this is in fact, no longer the case for Saputo. I have reviewed their annual report but cannot find revenue split between milk and cheese. Do you know what % of their revenue is split between the 2? Am interested in your thoughts as to whether or not there are positive or negative growth drivers for the products that Saputo sells.

Q: I have owned BCE for many years and have been happy with the returns it has provided. I am wondering if there is a company(s) that you may recommend that will compliment this holding other than the other big names (Telus etc) that will take advantage of the roll out of 5G. I have also owned Apple for many years as hardware provider. It is my understanding that exciting towers will not be used for 5G? Perhaps a tower company or chip provider? any Ideas and your rational would be much appreciated. Thanks as usual for the great service you provide!

Q: Hello Peter and team,

Is there a tax efficient way to have US exposure in a taxable account? Would you recommend a ETF? Trying to get more US exposure in my sons portfolio and the taxable account is quite a bit larger than the RRSP's and TSFAs (both maxed) so if we want more US exposure, it has to be in the unregistered.

Thank you,

Wes

Q: Hello,
I see what looks like some very good news concerning my holding of Starlight U.S. Multi-Family Class A units. I would however appreciate your thoughts on their announcement of what I believe is to be a redemption of all my outstanding units at a price of $12.35 CDN per share.

I'd also appreciate your opinion or insight into why the shares are only trading at $11.10 CDN as I write this but it looks to me as though they are to be acquired at $12.35 in January of 2020. Should I back up the truck and buy more or is the discount evidence of a very strong opinion the deal might not go through for some reason?

Thank you!

Q: Good morning folks
I sold all shares of VET over 30 days ago for a tax loss. The loss was about 1.65% of my entire PFs. I'm thinking of buying back in for some gain and the dividends. Either my TFSA or RRIF? Or maybe leaving my energy very low for awhile? My question is...but now? Watch? Or get out all together? Or would you suggest any other stock?
Thank you for a good year
