Investment Q&A

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

Q: Cintas has been very good to me but I am seeing comments recently that it is currently very much overpriced and will probably take a serious hit with the first sign of bad news. I believe it is a great company but I am thinking it may be time to move on. What is your opinion of holding on to this stock vs. putting a close stop loss on it?

Q: Of the 5 mining Co's, which one would you say is most globally diversified with best growth prospects, if the world doesnt hiccup too badly with current trade rhetoric ? Or maybe, a Co. not mentioned, I know Teck is the largest-diversified, but maybe another has more torque to the upside of a particular metal, maybe gold/ lithium miner ? I'm seeking Cdn competitive advantage with U.S dollar revenues.

Q: Hello Peter et al.

With all of the latest rhetoric about trade wars between the US and a lot of countries I have lightened my stock portfolio from about 97% to about 75% with the remainder in cash. I have in the last few years worked hard to get the increase in my RRSPs value. I am looking to put the cash into something that provides the following:
1. Quick access if necessary to re-invest again when I feel the time is right.
2. No loss of the capital with what the cash is put into.
3. Maximum rate of return for the above two criteria being met. I know it will not be high.

Is there a Money Market ETF or something similar that meets my three criteria. Because the cash is in my RRSP accounts I can’t take it out without paying tax on it which I do not want to do.


Thanks,

Brendan

Q: With trade tariffs and uncertainty in the markets what Is the wise move with russel metals, hold or sell? I have a large position so would not be interested in buying more. I hold it in my RRSP for the yield. If you suggest a sell what could replace it considering I also hold BCE, BMO, HR.UN, NVU.UN as well as 4 small caps for growth but no dividends.

Q: May I please have our view on Cornerstone Metals. Vanadium has been listed by the US government as a strategic metal which is used in steel production and next generation storage batteries. With it being in short supply, the trade war with China and the majority of vanadium reserves in Russia, China and South Africa would this not be a very valuable asset for North America and have significant upside potential?
