Investment Q&A

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

Q: This is not a question. Just sharing. Was thinking that taking profits is hard because after you sell and the stock continues to go up you miss out on more profits.

But holding losers too long is even worse.

So how do you win?

Q: Good morning. I have VALE in my registered account, with a much lower value than cost. It does pay a substantial dividend and I am aware that it also has cash. Is it reasonably safe to hold since materials are doing fairly well generally? Should I consider reducing my position or selling? Is it safe to hold with its high dividend at this time?

Q: Hello,
Out of the three companies, can you please provide which one is a better buy and why? New Flyer seems to get contracts, but i am assuming their update on supply chain issues and now an offering is holding the stock back. However, would appreciate your thoughts in which one you think will do well. Thanks very much.

Q: Hi Peter snd staff

A question yesterday asked to rank some stocks -appears you are warming up to Viatris? Some commentators worry about drugs coming off patent - some say it is so cheap it should be re rated? Safe for a long term hold with dividend and done growth?

Thanks for all you do
Dennis

Q: What is your take on Manulife’s recent announcement that it will shed $2B of its US variable annuity business and using the majority of the proceeds for share buybacks? It seems the markets are pleased but is this a good business decision for the long term? I am concerned that by prioritizing share buybacks management is taking a shortcut to earnings growth rather than actually growing revenues and profits. I guess your preference to SLF’s management in the past has me extra cautious.

Q: These three stocks along with cash , are equally held and is my entire TFSA. This represents only 2.5 % of my combined non registered account and RRSP ( RIF next year).
My feeling ( and performance )on the stocks are :

AC: ( Even )Covid rebound extent still in question, high oil prices a drag
EIF: ( Up ) solid dividend, owned long time with good results
EGLX: ( Up ) , most volatile, doing the right things in a growing sector

Am willing to take a fair degree of risk. Your opinion on the portfolio is appreciated. How would you adjust and what are some of your recommended stocks ? Thanks. Derek

Q: Hi Everyone!! They halted trading of the stock today. I think they were selling shares to raise money to take care of debt and get more working capital. What are your thoughts on this? Is this a positive move for the company and is it customary to halt trade when this sort of thing is happening? Cheers, Tamara
