Investment Q&A

Q: Good morning team,
Re: Gud's NCIB:
“Be mindful that the largest beneficiary of the share repurchase program is Jonathan Goodman. Even if he does not participate, the reduction of shares at a substantial discount to last $10 per share capital raise only serves to increase his percentage control of the company. Like his conflicting interests with his family business (Pharmascience), either way he wins and shareholders lose.

“Rather than engage in financial engineering that principally benefits the CEO, why didn’t the Board consider a partial tender offer for shares at $10? Just give shareholders their money back at the price paid? It’s a fair question. But one that we fully expect the company to ignore.

Q: We have a lot of US stocks that I have done well on as well we have a bunch of ETF 's that hold US equities that hedge the dollar. I feel that the US dollar is starting to lose steam and we don't want to give up our individual US companies but don't want to lose on our dollar exposure. What is the most cost effective way to protect against dollar exposure for the long term?

Q: Good afternoon 5i.
I have some cash to invest and
I would like to invest some of it in an etf portfolio.
any sujection
Thank you

Q: With safety of principal in mind, what do you think of HEP? It seems like a relatively safe place to earn a decent dividend in today's uncertain markets.

Q: Do you see any potential for these stocks? I am trying to reduce my tech holdings.

Q: At the current time, do you have a preference of one over the other as an investment (ignoring any other factors re portfolio construction)? thanks.

Q: Like other members I am searching around for a good watchlist system. I have looked at TMX money but am somewhat confused about their platform. I can't see if there are any fees associated with their service. How do they make their money? I have not registered with them yet.

Thank you,

Paul

Q: What's the Street expectations of upcoming Q.?Your expectations & opinion.Thanks for u usual great services & views(yesterday wrongly asked about TM,should be TOY)

Q: I currently am a holder of the following three companies. I consider CSU as an A+ quality, legacy wide-moat company and an A+ capital allocater. Conversely I consider Brookfield of similar nature in reinvestment skills, but as more of a B+ ranking. I consider Broadridge as a legacy wide-moat company, but once again I would rank it as a B+ here.

My question is if you know of any other companies that have these wide legacy moats and strong reinvestment skill similar to that of CSU. Especially down in the U.S. Perhaps you could list out 4-5 possibilities?

Thanks,

Liam

Q: During the interview on BNN today it was indicated that there are plans for Martello to grow organically as well as through acquisitions. Do you have any insight as to how they might finance these acquisitions, eg. issuing equity or debt or both. Also could you provide some information on their balance sheet as well as present and expected revenue and earnings growth. Also what is the present insider ownership and has there been much buying or selling in the past few months. Thank you.

Q: Would you have a stop loss on these companies? My worst performers by far -20% and -30% in each. Are insiders selling or have a low position? What is the short position in each company. Thanks

Q: In doing my research I see 4 strong buys on analysts following the company. It seems to have a target of $35.

What do you think of it? Would you reccomend it as part of a growth portfolio?

Please advise.

Sheldon

Q: Any thoughts on PLTH as a high risk investment?

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
HMY has just hit a new high and has done better recently.
However I am still under water. Just wondered if it might have a little more to run since gold is moving. So would you suggest a hold for a little while would not be too risky or sell and run? Thanks!

Q: Can you see if any institutions have been buying shares lately? A screenshot from Bloomberg would be great

Q: Do you see any reason for the big drop today?
