Investment Q&A

Q: Hey there,
I am interested in US large cap value stocks. Is there an ETF on the tsx will give me exposure? If not, do you have a recommendation for an ETF in the US?

Thanks

Q: You mentioned that for ETF's that up to 10% holding is fine, would holding XGD up to 10% be okay if you only have TFSA account and is only around $20,000 and this would be the only material sector stock that you own or is this too high. Currently have a 5% weight.
Thanks

Q: Good Morning Team,

What is the reason for halt on RHT?

Q: Would it make sense for New Flyer to buy Grande West? Do the 2 companies produce different types of buses?

Q: A hypothetical. If one had enough money to purchase the entirety of one of your portfolios, would you recommend an even percentage of each stock, or should one also look at the relative volatility of the stocks?

Q: Hello
My question is related to the vastly discounted price that Canadian oil companies are able to achieve for their product, with many analysts indicating they need to get it to either or both coasts so it can be sold for a better price. I would think that the rail companies are probably getting some of the oil to the coasts, and have to potential to move greater volumes even if more costly than pipelines. Are CNR or CP in the position to benefit form this need to move the oil to 'tide water'?
Thanks,
Brian

Q: Good morning. I'm looking to take a position in this company based on your recommendation and the fact it has fallen like a rock. What I'm trying to figure out is what can they do in the future to add to their 3 safety innovations? Is their growth projection based on what they have now and future sales only? Thanks

Q: With the purchase of the Keg by Cara do you view this as the better growth story with respect to the stock price as compared to Restaurant Brands International.

Q: On Jan 24 a member named Ron stated that CPX had a payout over 100 percent. You failed to acknowledge that this is incorrect information and could mislead other shareholders. On an AFFO basis the payout is approx. 50 percent, this is the common method of measuring ratios for this sector. Please comment.

Q: Good Morning All,
I've been watching AC retreat over the past few sessions. I have a half position. Do you think this would be a good time to top up to a full position?

Q: What are your thoughts on DHX.B? It has slid over the last few years but recently appears to be making headway over seas.

Q: I am wanting to sell partial positions in each of these. They have become dangerously overweight in my portfolio and am looking to take profits in order to reinvest in other companies/sectors -- either in Canada or US. ADRs would also be acceptable. While I see huge growth in the technology sector, I think I would like to move away from it, since my weighting in this sector is also "dangerously overweight" ... at almost 25%.

(It's hard to move away from something that's giving you such good returns!)

1. Which 3 stocks might you suggest for equal/similar torque?

2. What is a good weighting for the above stocks? All of them have reached the 7 percent range, and even to me it sounds a bit risky.

Thanks for your advice.

Q: I own some KKR, which has done well, and have been considering either purchasing more of this or investing in another alternative asset manager - possibly Blackstone Group, or Carlyle Group (CG on the Nasdaq, although I was unable to bring this up on your system). All continue to have very good runs. Does a purchase in this group make sense to you at this point? If so, is there one member of the group, or a related company, that you would recommend?

Thanks - Don

Q: These companies were mentioned in the Globe as financiers for the small cap sector, such as cannabis. Any preference? Thank you!
