Investment Q&A

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

Q: Mullen Group reported results today and they are what they are. I watched the CEO on BNN today and did not find his interview “warm and fuzzy”. Actually I found he was bitter and he blamed the government and economic influences beyond his control for the company results. I came away thinking if the CEO doesn’t think positively of the future then it’s time to exit my holdings and move on.
Am I way off the mark? Would appreciate your advice.
Thanks John

Q: Both stocks down after earnings. How do the results look to you?

I find it odd that Amazon can earn $2.88 billion or $5.75 per share which is over 80% higher than estimates of $3.14 per share, but sales were $500 million lower then estimates ($56.6 billion vs $57.1 billion)... less then 1% miss... with concerns over high valuations in tech stocks, Amazon in particular trading at a high P/E ratio, to crush earnings and go down seems like an overeaction.

Q: According to Bank of America while individual investors are still buying stocks, institutional investors are selling. Is that a bearish sign ? Typically professionals exit the market before a major downturn and retail investors as always late in the game throw their money into the market at a wrong time. What are you thoughts on this?
I have recently bought SIS, PBH and other 5i BE stocks. I had placed some stink bids with my buy price atleast 10% below the price about a month ago and all those transactions went through to my surprise. The stocks are still falling further. I know for long term investment one should not worry about 10-20% fall in good companies but are institutions selling the companies followed by 5i portfolios and may be they are waiting to come back in at a much better pricing in near future ?

Thanks for the great service as always

Q: I sold both WEF and TSGI for tax losses. I can get back into them Oct.31. They've both been going straight down and I'm thinking they may go lower because of others doing tax loss selling. Do you still think they're worth getting back into and would the end of December be a better time to buy them?

Q: You commented earlier that the mkt may not like the earnings miss, thus the pressure on the stock.
I was under the impression oil/gas stocks are valued on a cash flow basis. Vet cash flow improved this Q.
None the less Vet seems to be going out of business , my only hope may be that they
