Investment Q&A

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

Q: There have been no questions about this company in a year.
And the two most recent, elicited more-or-less opposite responses.
Could you provide a current opinion, when the dividend was last cut or increased and what the current short position is.
If you like something better, I would be interested to know.
Thanks,
Kyle

Q: I'm tempted to buy more ALA and am trying to confirm that ALA dividend will still be well covered after all the divestitures. Do you have details on the free cash flow of WGL (pre-acquisition) and ALA currently? I found cash from ops but not a breakdown of cap exp for maintenance versus growth). Also, any idea how much free cash flow is being lost by ALA as a result of the divestitures?

Thanks
Peter

Q: I own shares in ENF and not sure about selling them at a profit or taking up ENB's offer for 0.45 per share cash plus 0.735 shares in ENB. This morning it looks like I would be ahead a little by selling ENF.

thanks for comments

Q: I have recently taken over managing a 401K that is comprised of many ETFs. I have never owned an ETF prior but am wondering if this setup is reasonable. It feels like too many ETFs with a fair bit of overlap. Currently equal weights of: XLV, XLI, XLY, XLK, XLRE, XLU, XLP, XLF, XLC, XLE. Your thoughts - some of these the fees are a bit high as well!

Q: Hello 5i team
Chrystal ball gazing time again. I am thinking of selling transcontinental for a tax loss. I just bought it seems strange to be selling it. I have a feeling that it won't move much until the next quarterly report, if at all. would you agree that it is relativly safe to sell and buy bak at a similat price in 30 days? i would wait a bit, though, to see if it bounces up a bit in the next week or two, as it has been heavily sold and could be in for at least a little bounce.
thanks for all the help.

Q: Hello Peter,
Namaste seems to follow the Amazon model and if they get the medical sales license, they could do quite well given their international exposure. Signing a deal with Tilray was a good endorsement;however, it is unclear at this point, what really transpired that would cause Tilray to cancel the agreement. I have not seen any official release from either company other than the Quebec newspaper article. The stock is down quite a bit. What should one do in this case? If the agreement is truly cancelled, should one sell or hang on as the overall model looks good. My concern is could the perception of the company be ruined and hence investor perception? Thanks

Q: Hi Guys,

I mentioned to a friend of mine about your great service as he complained how his mutual funds have gone nowhere in the last 5 years with all the fees. He has signed up for your service and was wondering how would be the best way to utilize your service, he is 50 year old business owner and busy being a soccer Dad, should he divide his money in your 3 portfolios or simply look to go for a 60/40 split with 60 in your balanced portfolio and 40 in bonds. He did mention he had an interest in ETF, any thoughts how he can put his money to work over the next year. Thanks Anthony
