Investment Q&A

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

Q: I have invested in a combination of your growth and balanced funds for 7 full years. Besides my profound enjoyment in following my investments, I ask myself if my 8.5% compounded return over these 7 years is satisfactory. A difficult answer I'm sure; I'm simply wondering if some form of longer term mix of ETF's or S&P 500 is more rewarding financially and forsaking my investment enjoyment. Your comment would be appreciated.

Q: With today's jump in ARM and current valuation, would you suggest selling and buying back when things settle ? I was tempted to sell when it hit $120+, but did not...

- I love many facts about the company and thought buying at $78 was expensive, but realistically what are the 5i Crystal ball suggestions and recommendations ...

Happy Spring in February!
Thanks

Q: I already hold a bit of TFII and WSP but would like more in industrials. I’m thinking of either adding to TFII or starting a position in STN or TT. Is there still good reason to add to TFII? If not, both STN and TT have good momentum, but as I already hold WSP, would TT make more sense?

Thanks.

Q: I'm a fairly unsophisticated investor so your advice has been well worth the price.

I am trying to understand the metrics to better value a company.

The price of some companies like Costco and CSU has soared, but you have mentioned such rises not being a bubble if other metrics like P/E ratio are in line with that. Is that the case for these two companies or are they now over-priced?

Also, you seem to be recommending VRT but the P/E ration on that is around 90. That seems very high.

Q: I have some cash to deploy but am feeling that everything is too expensive amidst the current euphoria.

Do you think it is worth sitting on cash, at least for a while, to see if things settle?

On the other hand, can you recommend 3-5 stocks in Canada and US that are at a good current price.

Also, and please take more points, can you name your top 2 sectors in each country.
