Investment Q&A

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,

Regarding Nutrien, I read your answer to 5i member Maureen, and also just finished today's article in the Globe and Mail:"Nutrien shares fade on disappointing first-quarter earnings" by Ian McGugan. In your view, is Ian's thesis valid, and would now be a good time to sell NTR if one has already made some money on it? What would be some better (?) and less volatile options in the Materials sector?

Thanks as always for your insight.

Q: I have always been puzzled by cyclical stocks. By way of example, I hold NTR in a non-registered account and have ridden it up (by 50%) and now down to 15%. Is the strategy for dealing with these stocks simply to ride out the bad times, knowing they will eventually cycle back? Or should I be selling on the way down and trying to figure out the best entry point when the stock starts to rebound? The matter is complicated, of course, by the tax consequences of selling in a non-registered account. Your advice regarding buying and selling cyclical stocks would be most appreciated. Thank you.

Q: With the recent decline in its price, do u see a possibility of dividend cuts?
Who would be a closest competitor for NTR?
Thank you as always

Q: Is this a good time to initiate a position in Nutrien?

Q: What do you expect from forecast release today? Do you find good reason to get in at 52 week low share price? Tks. Larry

Q: I have room to add one materials stock to my portfolio. Which of the following or others would you prefer? Nutrien around $80; Stella Jones around $60 lately or CCL.B around $68?

Q: Is NTR a good hold? I held it for years and have gone round trip with price.

Q: I have no exposure to Materials or Utilities right now in our RRSP. All other sectors are well represented. What stocks would be your preferred in Canada and/or the US in those sectors? Thinking of NTR or SJ maybe in Canada and perhaps LIN in the US. Maybe FTS or BIP for utilities.Thoughts?

Q: What has caused the big drop in Nutrien the last few days?

Q: Given the current economic climate and potential future trends, which industries or sectors do you believe are well-positioned for long-term growth in the stock market, and what specific Canadian and US companies within those industries or sectors do you believe have strong fundamentals and potential for long-term momentum?

Thank you!

Derek.

Q: Nutrien looks reasonably priced on several indicators. It has been selected a Top Pick 4 times on BNN over the past 4 months. Why does the share price continue to fall? What in your opinion would be a good entry price?

Thanks for your help,

Mike

Q: Hi 5i
I would like to replace AEM in my LIF account with another basic material holding. My goal is growth. Both NTR and WFG are looking interesting now. Could you give your opinion of which would likely be the better play for a long term. With the pending slow down/recession would you switch now or wait?
Thanks

Q: Can you give me 4-5 Canadian non financial divvy stocks that look attractive to you right now? Thanks

Losses in all this stocks and confused need your Opinion Badly,I know they are maany stocks and Highly apreciate your help.

Q: Nutrien struggling as of late...what is your opinion on this company and its future?

Q: I see that NTR is at a one year low. Should I sell now and preserve the 22% gain I have in my RRSP?

Q: what is going on?

Q: I bought Fpi as a diversifier for my portfolio. and a belief in the potential for farmland values to increase. It has steadily dropped in price….down 20%. Now I am questioning my thesis.

Do you see this turning around and worth holding , or better to bite the bullet sell and look at something like LAND or NTR or ADM/ Mosaic .. I do own NTR and am down a bit but still like it.

Thanks for your thoughts on this.

Two questions:
