Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hello,
I have a decent amount of exposure to names such as Brookfield Renew., Enbridge, Fortis. Should we expect a large correction in these names if rates increase faster than expected (if so what would be your wild guess in % for a correction?) I am a long term holder and don’t need the income. I was hoping that rate increases would be mitigated by the inflation we are experiencing. I am trying to decide if I should sell some and replace with financials and technology. I am slightly overweight utilities and main reason was for stability / safety. Thank you!

Q: After watching the PMO office enact the EMA and then outline that financial institutions could arbitrarily lock you out of your accounts sent chills down my spine. Regardless of whether you agree with the protests going on or not, I find it worrisome that our government can just dictate that. This seems like a problem that could arise out of the blue and should have a plan of defense from it. What if any advice would you have in this regards?

Q: Scotia I trade gives me access to purchase GICS, just like stocks from my account.
They state all our GIC issuers are members of Canada Deposit Insurance Corp.
My Question is would you be comfortable purchasing GICS from the following group, up to $100,000 ( the CDIC Coverage) as they provide much better rates than our big 4 Banks.
1) Versabank 2) ICICI 3) B2B 4) Concentra 5)General Bank 6) Equitable Bank

Thanks Guys !

Q: Do you think that DIS share price will be more sensitive to 1) Disney+ performance, 2) theme parks/cruises or 3) theatrical and linear TV businesses? There is likely still some re-opening upside for 2) but I suspect that they will find it difficult to continually achieve lofty expectations for 1), and I assume 3) will be under pressure as well. I'd appreciate your thoughts on holding DIS or selling. Thanks.

Q: This company has been on a fairly continual slide for a year now. I am just about break-even in a TFSA, I have had a bad habit in the past of being impatient and because room in the TFSA is limited I have sometimes sold things for the next shiny object and regretted the decision years later as the original holding finally takes off.

Analysts following the stock seem to still expect significant upside, what do you see in terms of potential and also risks?
