Investment Q&A

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

Q: Do you have estimated numbers for returns (1-3-5 yr) on your etf model portfolio? Or even better would be calendar year returns back as far as you can go. Much like you have on the equity portfolios.

Looking to have a chat with my advisor about his fees and these numbers would help as me adopting your portfolio is what he needs to beat net of fees. It would be his new benchmark if your returns have been good!

Q: Peter always good to see you on BNN. You mentioned Altagas' dividend being fine as it would be based on cash flow ( please correct me if I'm misquoting) and therefore a decent investment.
Could you respond to this article about Altagas and the author's points?

The second quarter Fiscal 2017 release is scheduled after market close on Thursday, June 8, 2017. Are some large holders of the stock expecting a poor quarter result? What are your expectations for the second quarter?

Q: Hello I need to add foreign markets to to my portfolio. I was looking for an Etf in either Canadian or US funds. I was looking for one to mainly target India. One or more that that has more exposure to Japan and Korea. As well as one that's overall balanced that I will put a larger weighting in. If you fell there's a better way about doing this please produced your thoughts.

Regards

Richard

Q: If cominar reit cut its distribution in half , its yield would still be a healthy 5.7% yield at $12.95 a share. The AFFO payout ratio would fall to 60 %and its share price would be trading at 10X AFFO and a 25% discount to net asset value.So why are investors dumping the stock because of the high yield and temporary 100% plus payout? (my numbers are based on a %1.28 2017 AFFO from TD Waterhouse, projected to rise going forward.)

Q: Hello,
Dollarama is a holding in my kids' Resp. I imagine them shopping there once they move out of residence while at university so see it as one to hold toward near the end of their tertiary education:) That said I have become nervous on its reporting dates (June 7). They have a nice gain and it's a little more than 5% but not quite 6% yet. For a longer term hold should I hold this one or swap it out for mru or loblaw?(defensive sector with less growth). The account also holds atd.b
P.s. I have my first 400% gain with NFI - thanks 5i!
