Investment Q&A

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

Q: This is not a question but a comment. I held IT in two accounts with RBC Direct Investing. I had tendered the shares but I forgot about it. So unthinking I sold them some time ago at about $10 after they had been tendered. And they went. But on reading the members comments today, I called my broker who thanked me as he could now straighten out their records by cancelling the tenders.

This was a somewhat different experience than was was experienced by some members with TD accounts. I hope this is of interest.

Q: Hello,

What do you think of investing in American regional banks to take advantage of a rate hike? Would you agree with the thesis ?

Do you have any individual names you like? Or you would go with an ETF? And for the latter, which of the two etf's would be your preference?

Thank you

Q: What is the risk / reward currently for BOS. Looking at the charts the share price has and continues to drop. BUT ... at today's price is looking very oversold using the RSI and Williams % as indicators. If you owned this (as I do and am sitting on a large loss and buying into your thesis that the company will do better over time), would you add now? It is a small %age of my portfolio.

Thanks.

Q: We own both of these companies in a riff account for the dividend and hopefully some growth given the demographics. Any reason why they have dropped so much recently ( seems to be more than the market) and would you buy more at these prices?
Thank you. Maggie

Q: PPL and others in the utility pipeline space have taken a major haircut in the last few days for no reason at all. Is the threat of a Fed rate increase really to blame? In real financial terms that is really immaterial. However, market movers have been using all threats (real or otherwise) to further their games of stirring stock movements. What is your take on this? Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter and Team - Your response to today's question on the Exchangeable shares has really helped to clarify the situation. I too have opted for the exchangeable shares and would like to convert back to the regular ones in order to sell but TD Waterhouse was very doubtful that I could do this. Before I pursue this further do you know when the deal for exchangeable shares will close. Also do you think there is a chance the shares in Intertain or the new company will go to zero. Are the fundamentals still reasonably sound and particularly is the debt load manageable. Thanks.
