Investment Q&A

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

Q: LGO, at 1.37 is close to its 52 low. The chart/ trend is ugly.... definitely not my friend :( BUT according to RBC it is cheap at 6xe .... and has a Morningstar "Undervalued" rating with a FMV of $2.05 (~50% upside). All of this has me thinking that this is a good time to add to a losing current position.
Could I have your current thoughts on LGO given its continuing presence in the 5i Growth Portfolio.

Thanks.

Q: The direction of Corporate profits is relevant to investment strategy. I am finding an annoying number of contradictory statements on this matter in the financial press. Case in point: in Saturday's G&M Report on Business, the Chief Investment Strategist for BMO Nesbitt Burns says "However, earnings have been continually beating upwardly revised expectations and are now up more than 8 per cent year-over-year in the second quarter." In the same article, the Managing Director of Guardian Capital says "....there are clear signs of the global economy slowing and corporate earnings growth trends continue to decline markedly." Seems to me this is a matter of fact not opinion. Can you tell me if corporate profits are going up or down? Thanks..

Q: In possible answer to Bruce's question about why Shopify and Lightspeed are down heavily today, there was an article on the Motley Fool today which said that anyone buying these stocks was gambling, not investing, as they were both ridiculously overpriced and subject to huge risk.

Q: I am reformatting my spreadsheets to line up with the 5i format and have a couple of questions using the Balanced Portfolio for July as a reference:
1. Where it says "1 Year -6.6%" does that mean total calendar year for 2018?
2. Under the "Calendar " column where it says " 2018 -13.2%" - does that mean trailing 12 month period (i.e. July 1, 2017 - July 30, 2018)?

Thanks for your help here.
