Investment Q&A

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

Q: I should have gotten rid of these two dogs long ago, but "Nooooo!" Always hoping they'd bounce back. So does one just dump PetroWest at this point and get anything you can? I notice a company called Crown Capital has issued a release, hoping to salvage as much as possible (the assets have to be worth something). As for Neptune (thanks Alex Ruus), do I sell my shares, buy a compass and send it to management, which seems to have no sense of direction?

Q: The company held a conference call to discuss their quarterly results this morning. While the results seemed ok their call has obviously spooked the markets. Was this due to the increases in their legal reserve due to certain law suits they are facing? There was also some mention that they would have no contribution from residential solar in 2017. Could you please provide your analysis/understanding of the issues they are facing and how serious these are for their long term longevity and profitability.
What do you advise shareholders do?

Q: I'M retired and invest for dividends. I have a full position in PPL and a full+ position in VSN which, I understand PPL is going to buy shortly. Both have dropped today, probably because of a big lawsuit against PPL by a US investment company. My question is hold, trim, sell?

Q: Good morning. I currently own CGX, MG and BYD.un in the consumer cyclicals (in total represent about 9% of portfolio). I'm considering selling CGX but don't want to add any more to the other 2. Is there another dividend paying company in this sector you would prefer over CGX. Thanks
