Investment Q&A

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

Q: Good day,

Can I get your thoughts on these two companies? I hold them both, thinking in my food-lover, simplistic way that they are in a business that will always have demand. But as I read more about investing, other than brand-recognition, they really have no moat and I question whether they are good to hold long-term.

In general. I wonder if restaurants/fast food are an investable area? If so, how do these two rate? If keeping only one, which would you choose?

Thank you,

Q: Not a question but an answer from TD on info I was researching and I notice also A few people were asking about giving shares in lieu of cash to a charity so I thought I would forward the TD answer.

""You can make the donation from your margin account at no fee, all of have to do is obtain a donation form from the chosen charity which should have the receiving party's information pre filled and then you just have to fill in the margin account info for the delivering side.

Once filled out, you can scan in an email pdf format to me and I can submit to our back office who would process it in approx. 2-3 business days.""

Q: Hi 5i.

Could you give five recommendations for 'hold forever' US stocks? I'm thinking the sort of companies you would never sell, and even pass the shares on through your estate, ideally.
