Investment Q&A

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

Q: Notice this is trading approximately 3% higher than its 52 week low. Pays a healthy dividend over 6%. Given the situation in the Ukraine, think now is a good time to jump in for the dividend (I am mostly interested in income) or is it possible the dividend may be cut ? If not, what would you see as an attractive entry point and do you feel the dividend should be safe longer term (and I assume you agree this situation with Russia will get fixed in the next 60-90 days).

Q: Regarding Eugene’s question on market craziness you stated that the Nasdaq has only had a sharp reversal such as that of Feb 24, twice in the last 22 years.
Could you comment on those two reversals regarding the economic and market conditions under which they occurred and draw any similarities to the current situation.
Thank you for your great service

Q: My accrued gains from the last few years on these tech stocks are evaporating. I'm thinking of selling the works and buying an energy ETF like IXC. Does this trade make sense?

Q: I hold two major mining companies based on inflation expectations and yield.

With the current conflict in Europe came a surge in commodity prices and the threat of sanctions against the major Russian production of such strategic metals as aluminum.

I looked at the operations of both companies and didn't see anything significant in Russia that might suffer from sanctions or even expropriation. I would have expected both to move sharply higher.

They both dropped with the invasion of Ukraine. I'm missing something. What is it?

Q: Could you please indicate which of Treasury Bills, GICs, NHA MBSs, and Canada Mortgage Bonds in general pay the highest rate of interest. Also, could you grade from lowest to highest risk? In view of the possibility that interest rates will rise would you wait to purchase, or if rates do rise would the increase be sufficient, in your opinion and not knowing the amount to be invested, to make a significant difference?
Thank you for considering my questions.
