Q: With the many downgrades today, and the stock down sharply after earnings, is it a good time to pick some or should I wait ? I guess the stock will not do much until the next quarter results and while the valuation is cheap and you are positive, there still might be a considerable downside to the stock price in the near term. I would like to avoid buying after the stock price has rebounded. Never too easy but what would you suggest? The fluctuations are in the range of 4-5% which is significant if I can get a feel for the trend over the next two weeks or so.
Regards

Q: I am a bit perplexed with CRH's share price performance post what seemed like a very strong quarter. The Company reported in line with consensus estimates yet the share price has lagged its peers? What are your updated views of CRH? Have you met management? Thoughts on the business and stock would be greatly appreciated. Is this a name you would consider picking up coverage of?

Q: I'd appreciate your thoughts on this ETF. I've owned for a while now, and take comfort in the fact that many of its holdings are positively commented upon by 5i. That and the fact that it may offer downside protection in a market correction.

I thought other members may appreciate knowing this exists, and that some of its holdings include:
BCE; ATD.B; Fairfax; Constellation Software, Metro, Loblaw, Metro, CI Financial, etc, etc.

In fact it might be hard to find a holding within that 5i does not like?

Best,

Cam.

Q: Hi team:
I am aware that this is no longer in the portfolio as recommended
I bought it in the low 30s
It has taken a small rise recently in the last month, is it related to the oil price ? is the dividend still safe ? It would take alot of courage to add more at this point as I have lost some capital, thanks
