Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi - can you please let me know of any website where I can enter a share symbol and the date I purchased it and the overall gain or loss will be calculated? Some of my shares go back 15 years or so and I would like to see the overall return with dividends.
Thanks!

Q: Hi Peter,
Points International (PTS) announced earnings last night and results beat estimates on both eps and revenues. Company had revenue YOY growth of 68% and seem to be executing quite nicely on their strategy in the loyalty market. What are your thoughts on their results? Do you believe this investment would require a longer term horizon (2-4 years)? And do you believe this company has room for further growth in terms of company performance and shareholder value?

Thank you

Q: Hi Peter and team, With some of the proceeds of our house sale, we'd like to invest in both the Income ($100,000) and Growth portfolios ($150,000). We will hold these in trading accounts since our RRSPs are maxed. Would you recommend starting the year now with an equal (5% each) distribution across the 20 stocks in each portfolio or is there an advantage to using the current weighting? Thanks for your thoughts!

Q: Hi Peter:
Re EIF, CNW reported a couple of hours ago that the company claims the negative media reports are "inaccurate" and that the 2nd quarter report Aug 12 will reveal this inaccuracy. The company also claims they have "no intention to change the current dividend."

Thanks once again for your time and great advice.

Q: Hello: Further to the August 06, 2014 question asked by Paul about the recent market declines... If someone has cash to invest, what would you recommend? Wait till close to the end of Sep.? Wait x weeks to see if the markets "settle down"? And, please tell us where and how to look for the volumes you mentioned? (Total market or individual stocks or etf's?)

Just a few days ago, I invested about $100K in some US etf's. They are, of course, now down about 1.5% to 2.5%. I have a further $275K to invest. Is it best to wait?

Q: Hi, I would like your opinion on CEU (Canadian Energy Services) at this price. It seems like a little talked about company thats become strategically importent to the frackers. Do you think there will be any impact to this company if Canada applies sanctions to Russia in the energy technology sector. It reports next week, would it be profitable to purchase now?
As usual, many many thanks for your service!

Q: Hello Peter and Team,
I have to choose between Capital Power (CPX)and Long Run Exploration (LRE) for income primarily, but with the objective of adding steady growth. I currently own CPX and had previously owned LRE but sold it over concerns of Debt/Equity. Your recent postive comments in regards to LRE having the debt under control and that the dividend being relatively secure has tweaked my interest. Either one, as I have to pick one over the other is part of a well diversified portfolio of which this position would represent a weighting of aprox 2.5% . My investment horizon would be 2 to 3 years. Thanks as always for all you do for us!
Rick
