Q: I have $20,000 to deploy in today's market. Should I do this at $500 a month, $1,000 a month or some other amount and time frame. The complete amount is ready to go. I am a 73 year old retired value investor with a good pension who enjoys dividends with a ten year + time frame. I will be investing in what I already have.
Thank you
Stanley
Q: Can you provide your opinion of this stock. Been absolutely crushed. Are the price points of the mattresses too high in light of current recession?
I hold a 2% position and was considering adding more if you find it enticing.
Q: I just asked about a yield portfolio to replace income from my newspaper pension and would appreciate guidance about buying.
I.E. each month for 4 months or would you shorten or lengthen the buy period.
Q: When does Byd.un.ca report earnings for the current quarter?
You mentioned earlier they could be horrible, or is that already priced in?
Thanks again for all your help.
Q: I know already this will be the most naive of questions to anyone with a business background -- but how in the world can oil trade at a negative value? I can understand the notion that "one has too much" and that one has so much that you're actually willing to PAY someone to take it away ... but ... really? How does this happen? What does this mean in the oil world? How can an industry continue to function? If this has been addressed elsewhere, I'd appreciate if you could just provide a link, saving you the grief of answering it twice. Is there any point in getting/staying in oil for the foreseeable future -- other than those who are comfortable with more advanced trading techniques, of which I am not.
Q: Would that be an impact on non-energy stock price as the oil price went negative ? What are the possible scenarios ? Would that drive down other stock price as well ?
Thanks for your expert opinion.
Q: In one reply you said inflation could be good for R/E. Isn't the following info copied from a Vancouver Sun article the negative?
"In steps that dwarf those taken during the global financial crisis, the federal housing agency and the Bank of Canada are ready to purchase billions of dollars worth of mortgages and mortgage-backed securities to backstop the market, while lawmakers passed a historic wage bill to stem job losses."
I would really appreciate insight and/or an explanation of what the statement means in lay terms.
Q: DHT seems to be positioned very well to profit from the current oil glut from what I can gather. With a dividend of 17% and what should be a very profitable outlook, do you see this reaching it's former highs?
Q: I am short on Consumer Stocks in my overall portfolio - can you give me some names to look at, both in the US and Canada - I'm interested in those that pay a dividend and are growing.
Appreciate you comments.
Thanks
Q: My wife retired recently. Her RRSP is around 100K. I've had it in an S&P 500 index fund for the most part. I want to change over to Canadian dividend paying stocks so she has a monthly income.
What would be your picks for the 5 most stable Canadian dividend stocks? Also, to add diversification I would put some of it into a Canadian dividend etf. Which one would you recommend? Thanks.
Q: I recently sold Shopify at a huge gain, as it had become more than 30% of my portfolio. Thank you for the recommendation. It was in my non-registered account, so I have a substantial capital gain. I have a lot of room in my TFSA, so I am going to move a majority of the proceeds there to avoid future capital gains. I will buy back into Shopify if the price retreats. Can you recommend any stocks, understanding that there is higher risk, that have a similar potential to Shopify? Can be Canadian or US. I have some Lightspeed already. Also, for future reference, did I make a reasonable move or should I have taken a different approach? Thanks
Q: Hi folks

I have about just one per cent each IBB and IXJ, and they have been holding up well . Since I have a little bit cash I wonder to add to each one . Your thoughts please.
Q: I’m looking to take a position in this company but have concerns about it trading on the OTC due to it being home-based in the UK, I’m guessing. It has growing 5-yr revenue and earnings and strong ROC and It’s not small at $9B market cap. How does it compare with its main competitor, United Rentals?
Q: Hello!
1) I would like to get a good, general US healthcare etf .. what might you recommend now? (Long term income investor)
2) also, I would like an etf that has companies like Sanofi and GSK, at decent weights .. what do you think? I see that VYMI has them but at very low percentages.
