Investment Q&A

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

Q: The first three stocks are good ones. Yet, they are all down, respectively by 21%, 28% and 57%,

Would you still advise staying the course ?

The current market is pretty bad. Very few places to hide !

In this really bad environment, is the stock market the place to be ? My only good stock since some time is CSU, but it stands like an exception. Lately, not much money to be made in the stock market. Do you concur ?

Amaya has been a great promise, and a great disappointment...

Q: I assume in your below response to my question on what to to add you meant to say DSG would be a better compliment to CSU(already held) vs ESL?

'We would be comfortable with all three; But ESL looks good to us, now $11 below its high.
DSG might though be a better complement to a holding of DSG, and it is also cheaper on a valuation basis.'

Q: Hello Peter,

Could you please provide an insight on how stock prices tend to behave when a private placement is announced as in case of Tio Networks. Does it kind of set a floor? Does the price trend down after the closing date of Jan 28. I have been keeping an eye with the intention of taking a position but given its fast rise and the present market conditions, have been apprehensive of doing it right now.
Regards
Rajiv

Q: Hi,

I know you mentioned Teck wasn't quite a buy yet back in December, but the stock has since been cut in half (again). Do you think it's a buy for the riskier part of a portfolio given it's strong near term liquidity, debt maturity profile (2017 onwards) and ability to raise cash via asset sales if it must.

The share price fall seems a bit overdone at these levels, but welcome your views.

Q: Hi team,
Ithaca today released it's 2016 guidance,and again the Stella project that was scheduled for March is now to be completed third quarter of this year.Short term the stock price is hitting 52 week lows ,day after day. They also have edged 52% of their production at 60$ a barrel until 2017and reduced their debt by 20%.Would this now be a value play or is it still to early to look for this as a good entry point?
Thank you ,have a good day!

Q: Hi, Happy New Year?
Well, in the middle of all this contagion, I have a little gem which has treated me well in the healthcare sector - MPH. Although Medicure trades on the Venture, it has held up well and seems to be making a significant move. Have you any thoughts on this stock?

Thanks, for your work.
Slainte,
