Investment Q&A

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

Q: For someone retired, age 60, no debt, no pension other than Gov't, and capital of 1.5 million, what would be your recommended asset allocation between cash, bonds, stocks etc and which, if any, of your recommended portfolios (or both as the case may be) would be appropriate in the equation. Thanks as always.

Q: Hi,

I'm looking at adding a large technology Company to my RRSP. I currently own Enghouse and I'm looking at adding either Open Text (OTC) or Constellation Software (CSU)? Any preference?

Also, Open Text is making an announcement tomorrow with the premier of Ontario. I assume its something related to additional investments in Ontario. What are your thoughts?

Thanks again,
Jason

Q: Where to park cash in my trading accounts? I find myself holding large amounts of cash in my trading accounts waiting for a market pull back that hasn't really happened! This cash sits "not invested" Do you have any suggestions on where I could park this cash inside my trading accounts that's flexible for trading while earning income? I love the 5I concept and I have done very well following the 5I recommendations, thanks.

Q: Hi Peter,
It's difficult to get a technical analysis of Dundee (DC.A) due to all the spin off. It's current SP shows it's at about 50% of book value. What is the % of book before all the spin offs? I own CF and GMP but like to add DC as a value play and like the discount to NAV. What is the reason for that big discount? Is because it's valued like a close end fund? Thanks in advance.
PS. Your team is doing a great service for Canadian investors. Every investor should be a member just for the education.

Q: As a followup to a recent inquiry regarding Tricon (TCN), I am wondering if the recent decline in new home sales is good for this company's prospects as lower prices mean they can continue to increase their home inventory at more depressed valuations plus more families will need to rent from their existing inventory. Similarly, will it hurt their business when home sales and prices rise or will that be the timeframe that they will begin to liquidate their inventory?
Thank you.
Steven

Q: In regards to MORL and CEFL. They both have redemption clauses that can be exercised by the company at any time. Is this something to be worried about? And are these normal for these types of funds and ETNs? Thanks.

Q: Hi 5I Team
You suggested I sell Colabor (GCL)last year. I did sell half my position. Is it worth adding to it this year? It does pay a very nice dividend and they seem to be turning things around.
Thank You,
Gord
