Investment Q&A

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

Q: When companies do a private placement or a bought deal, what percentage of the time would the stock price rise above that price, lets say in 1 year? Do you know any studies that answer the question, or can you provide an answer based on your experience? I recognize the question is very broad. I suppose your answer would differ depending on the market cap of that company. Asking because I want to see if it is a good strategy to buy based on a dip down to the PP price. Thanks.

Q: Hi there,

I only have a little bit of money to put in right now and I’m looking at either WELL or Air Canada - which would you recommend? I am comfortable holding for a year or two minimum and am looking for growth but want to stay on the safer side. Appreciate your insight!

Q: GIC coming due shortly, do not want to reinvest the money at a .75% rate. I’m considering buying a fairly safe dividend paying stock or 2. They could have a some growth as well as they would be in my TFSA. Have been considering TFII. What do you think of it and could you suggest a couple of other options for me to look into..

Thanks for your thoughts and suggestions.

Q: I am growing concerned about Line 5 as the Michigan governor is trying to close it down. I realize there are several strategies in play to keep it open, but given how big line 5 is to enbridge, to michigan, to ontario and quebec, I can't help but wonder what will happen to the stock and future growth if it is closed down Your opinion please?

Q: Dear 5i team,
I've owned CHO100 since 2006 and I've had approximately a 75% ROI since this time which is in my opinion lackluster. I had high hopes for the is fund and its manager but things have not worked out as well as I would have hoped. That said, recently it has done well compared to pears but still. Do you think it's time to cut to the cord? Any opinions on its future prospects.

I've also owned MAW107 since 2004 and have had phenomenal results of over 500%. So much so that I am wondering if it would be a good time to cash in profits Again, any thoughts on the fund's future prospects? Both are in my RRSP and I have still at least 15 years before I will be needing to draw from it.
Many thanks in advance.

Q: In the last 5 from 5i the first article about rising interest rates contained this statement: “Investors should consider adding economically cyclical sectors that can take advantage of global reflation. We also suggest maintaining positions in defensive sectors that would likely do well if the faster-growth, rising-rate scenario takes longer to materialize than indicators now suggest.”

Can you suggest a handful of individual companies and hopefully some ETF’s that would address those two strategies?

Thank you.
