Investment Q&A

Q: PXT recently announced production that was below analyst expectations, and the stock is down quite a bit today. In add-on, their forecast for 2024 is also light, although a bit of an increase over 2023. I'm surprised, as i bought this one for its strong growth prospects. What do you think of this company going forward? Can they still increase the dividend? buy back stock?

Q: Any reasons about the big 12%+ drop in SP and almost 800K in volume today (normal trading is about 300K in volumes)? Thanks.

Q: Dropping pretty steadily recently. Any news, or just nervousness?

Would you be adding here or waiting for next earnings?

Q: Hi Team,
Currently, what's your thoughts on the Trade Desk? I have been reading how this year might be a big one for advertising. Do you expect them to turn around after being weak since their last earnings miss? Is it worth holding or is there better opportunities I should be buying with the funds instead? My shres are held inside a TFSA with a considerable % gain. Thanks

Shane.

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I noticed that Lumine group was halted for a brief time this morning but did not see any news released. Any insights on why the halt?

Thanks!

Q: Png had 2.4 mil shares change hands the other day, also there has been positive contracts recently and share price is rising. How would you evaluate the risk vs opportunity at this point ?

Q: Robotics were a big part of the latest CES show in Las Vegas.

I would like to know what your best investment ideas to play this secular trend. I believe with the increased cost of labour this trend will only accelerate.
I am looking for your best stocks or ETF ideas to put in an RRSP to profit from this assumption.

Thanks for all your ideas and insights.

Q: Do you think long term investors will eventually be rewarded? Their software is installed in 54% of cars coming off assembly lines worldwide, have announced some big partnerships since beginning of December, are expanding into the fitness industry, yet share price really hasn’t moved.
Thanks for your insight.

Q: I hold approximate 5% of my portfolio in Crypto stocks (ETF's and Mining companies). With the SEC's approval of ETF's should I consider selling a few of the above and purchasing one of these new ETF's and if so, which one would you recommend. Thanks

Q: Would like your view on switching Mg for TFI. Looking for growth and a reasonable value. Mg seems to be stuck and going nowhere

Q: Hi Folks,
May I have your opinion on Stella Jones. I am thinking of adding it to my non registered account.
Thanks

Q: When buying a stock such as MSFT is there any advantage to buying Canadian versus US? They are on both markets and do not know which I should purchase.

Q: I purchased LSPD at its high of $100.00, now it is down to $25.00. I am 60 yrs old, don’t need the money. Should I sell it and move on, or wait for it to rebound somewhat. If I sold it what would be a good replacement. It is in my TFSA!
I need some advice!
Thank you.

Q: ESSA Pharma is just one example of an exciting pharma in a topically interesting (prostate cancer, aging population…) area but with impenetrable valuation characteristics. Can you say whether this stock’s prospects are worth its price? Are there other early-stage pharmas you like?

Q: This is NOT a question but a comment!

I of course benefit from the words of wisdom of Peter and his team. Peter with his extensive experience and having worked with some giants in this field like Eric Sprott has so much to share.
However I also benefit from fellow subscribers' questions/comments. Today (15-01-2024) Dave mentioned about Don Coxe in his question about LB.TO. It brought fond memories of Don Coxe whose columns on FP (previous iteration) I used enjoy. Arguably one of the most elegant financial writers whose USD:EURO ratio was very popular once. I presume he has retired. Please do share the link if Don Coxe is still writing columns anywhere!

Q: Hi,

I would like to purchase a large, dividend paying US stock that has some potential for future growth (or is currently undervalued) in my RRSP. Could you provide some suggestions?

Thank you,
Evan

Q: Everyone, we have heard many people and the investment community identify and comment on magnificent seven in the US. What are the magnificent seven in Canada? Clayton

Q: I am down $6,200.00 on TVE.
Is this a hold? do you see a recovery or should I move on? I currently own 7 other energy stocks.

Q: Does this company appear to have any of the attributes of a LMN, TOI, or CSU? Do you foresee CTS copying their strategy of not offering further shares. Is it a good investment for a 5 year hold? Thanks

Q: I realize this question is outside of your area of expertise but I have been reading your Q&A for years and am always amazed at your (and your members) breadth of knowledge. My CND morther recently passed away. She owned no property and all her assets were in TFSA's (4 children listed as beneficiaries) and GIC's in a nonregistered account. All asssets are to be evenly split amongst the 4 chidlren. I am the executor and my only question is, I have a sister in France that is to receive her share 1) does she have to pay any tax on the registered and nonregistered monies she receives or is it the same as in Canada where it is not deemed as income and is not taxed 2) with all the safeguards in place for fraud and money laundering are there limits/issues transfering her $80,000 inheritance and what is the best way to send it?

Any comments welcome
