Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hello.
As most, I am not accustom to having my capital cut by 25% in 4 days like I have experienced with CXR. My bad for being drawn into this type of investment.
As I am here now, I was expecting to see someone ask for your market experienced comment on what we just witnessed this week and how to deal with it.....as I wonder what is next.
Is there a story that goes with this cut in share price? (Wise and Seasoned Investors getting out before earnings?) Or do we just sit blindly believing it is all due to Valiant?
Appreciate your input.
Thanks

Q: Constellation Software closed sharply lower to $500.68 with a substantial higher volume on Friday, crossing below its 50 and 200 days moving average. I am already a share holder at much lower entry price. Does this indicate some coming bad news? Please kindly advice buy/sell or hold? Thank you. Bill

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
In the last 4 months HMY has gone from $0.52 to $4.19. I guess you could say it went from the Intensive Care Unit to being discharged from the hospital with a positive prognosis. Ha!Ha! You would agree it was due for profit taking. Yesterday it declined 10% on 11M volume. Then in the last 30 minutes it traded 35M shares and went up 5%. only loosing 3% for the day. I was amazed! So please tell me what this means. Was this institutional buying on the dip...is this a good sign for the future? Also is there a rough rule of thumb between the price correlation between bullion and miners when they are already in profit territory? So if bullion went up 10% to $1375.00 what might happen to HMY?
Thanks for your continued knowledge and insight...

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

What is your take on Barry Critchley's article in today's National Post?

http://business.financialpost.com/investing/investing-pro/reit-investors-face-new-risk-as-ceos-age-raising-succession-questions

In this article, he discusses the problems that REITs may have going forward due to the 'advancing age' of some REIT founders with no apparent successors in place, thus increasing the possibility of a strategic change in direction for the REIT, or an outright sale.

Do you view this as a problem? What REITs in your view are most vulnerable if in fact there is credibility to the article?

Thanks as always for the timely and pertinent advice.

Q: Hello Team,

If you could only pick one of these two companies for an investment, what are the pros and cons of each and which would you choose? Please assume an already well-diversified portfolio and a long-term horizon (e.g., 10 years).

Many thanks.

Michael

Q: Peter; I see Mr. Trudeau said that the first two years of infracture spending will be on " unsexy" things such as recapitalization,deferred maintenance,upgrades and restoring subway signals. Would this not take the shine off the above companies re " major" projects and forward any new work out two years? Thanks.Rod
