Investment Q&A

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

Q: I am looking for a transportation company to add to my portfolio. With another delay in the TransMountain Pipeline, is now a good time to consider the rail companies, and if so, which one should benefit more from a possible increase in oil shipment?
With or without the oil shipments, is there another transportation company you would recommend instead, planning on a 5 year time frame?
Thank you

Q: Hi Peter,
I have extracted part of your reply to the question on Cronos , "The cross-border issue is one problem. It is hard to take action in other countries". I know you cannot guess or speculate, but can you shed light on why the short sellers have not been after Canopy or Tilray that have extreme valuations yet Citron was keen on issuing reports on companies like Shopify. I would appreciate you insights. Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

I can never stop saying thanks for your great stock recommendations and giving me confidence to drop mutual funds from my portfolios.

A question about my TFSA. I hold PBH, PHO, SIS, KXS and WPK. The performance has been quite good as I am using the TFSA for long term growth. Any suggestions on the need to change any of the stocks in this mix?

Thanks.

Marvin

Q: On 29 Aug I asked a question, part of which was: "Do you like the idea of holding some (10%) of a portfolio in active ETFs?" I did got a sense from your answer if you favour holding some actively managed ETFs, or would you stay with low MER index ETFs? I am planning to hold as much as 50% of my portfolio in ETFs for outside Canada exposure.

Q: Just a comment to Michael about TD investment savings account TDB8150. In the small print there is a note that there is a fee for selling within 30 days of a purchase. I think it is either a flat rate or percentage (I don't recall), but it is something to look in to if you plan to move money in and out in a short time frame.

Q: Today we are seeing another short seller, Citron Research, issue a report condemning Cronos whose reporting is being compared to disclosures by Canapy and Tilray.
Often, research assessments have been based on subjective judgment. What recourse do shareowners have to ensure there is accuracy? Are these firms subjective to recourse or penalties should their reports be issued for personal gain? Are there cases of class action lawsuits?
