Investment Q&A

Q: Hello Team,

What are your thoughts on PRL here? Do you know why they don’t list out current assets and liabilities?

Thank you

Q: If you own/follow GSY you can't help but notice that this stock has been sell off hard daily. Why is GSY such a popular target for the manipulators even when it reported great earnings and raised dividend to that level?

Any theory? Thanks.

Q: Does it make sense in buying a small position in something like sqqq? Any other general short recommended? What is a suggested position size given for a short given that all my other positions are positive. Is my maximum loss limited to amount of money invested in sqqq..ie can it go in the negative? Thanks.

Q: Why is Epam is falling like that ? thank you

Q: How the vix protection working with this fund?

Q: Hi,

I’m following up on recent questions about taxation of the ETF VEQT (and similar) in an RRSP.

I am a bit confused about what withholding taxes might apply to VEQT. I have three questions please.

1) Would you be so kind at to explain what withholding taxes apply to VEQT in an RRSP?

2) If there are non-recoverable withholding taxes on VEQT in an RRSP, can they be quantified?

3) Finally, if there are withholding taxes applicable to VEQT in an RRSP, is there an ETF setup with the same diversification objective as VEQT that is more tax efficient in an RRSP?

(I tried following this information but I’m still unclear: https://www.vanguard.ca/content/dam/intl/americas/canada/en/documents/WithholdingTax_Guide-final.pdf).

Thank you very much.

Michael

Q: I am getting “twitchy” on Premium Brands ahead of them reporting on March 21st (a Friday, but reporting before markets open?). Can you give me an idea of how often they have beat expectations in the past and how the share price has reacted historically as well? I know it is asking for crystal ball gazing but can you make an educated/experienced guess about what you expect?

Q: Thanks a lot for the very informative reply to my earlier question on CNQ.
While reading your reply, I was wondering what fraction of its debt is subject to interest rates determined in Canada vs the US rates. Or do you think it is immaterial.
Thanks again.

Q: ULTA reported yesterday and the share price is down 15%+ today. Is this still a hold? If trying to free up money what order would you sell these 4 names ULTA, XPEL, INMD, EVVTY? Thx

Q: Hello Team,
Which of these two companies would you expect the best return, capital appreciation plus dividends over the next 2 to 3 years, and why?
Thanks,
Barrt

Q: Good morning,
Gladly Bir is high today, any reason ?
Thank you

Q: Earnings look ok to me... but here we are down 6%. Is there anything in the earnings that disappoint or is this drop all about the scary market jitters?

Q: What is the outlook and thoughts of this company? Is it investable?

Q: Can you discuss the differences between dlr.i.ca, dlr.ca, hbil.ca , pas.ca , csav.ca in regards to safety of capital to park cash. There is a significant difference in return 4%-10%. Some are high interest savings accounts and others US dollar accounts. Are the US dollar accounts too risky?
Thanks.

Q: From a look at the CNQ price history graph, roughly between 2006 to covid, CNQ cycled between $15 to $25. For some 3 years post covid, it climbed from $15 to as high as $55. It is now about $42 which is still quite a lot above the 2006-2020 trend. I would be grateful if you can comment on what was holding back CNQ in the first period and what drove it during the second period, such as change in earnings, P/E, etc. I would like to understand if it is currently overpriced and if it dropped back to the $20-$30 range would the dividend be much at risk.

Q: Is XIT worth holding? Or would one be better off just buying the top 3 holdings in equal weightings. For CDN tech, what would be the best buys today for the long term?

Q: Hi 5i
As a clarification of my most recent question about FTN " are the preferred shares fixed" what I meant is; is the preferred shares dividend at risk of being cut ?

Thx

Q: Intel gets a new, amazing CEO: Lip-Bu Tan. FROM Jim Cramer.

Do you agree?

Worth buying some Intel stock now or not?

Thank you.

Q: What is your take on APPL's recent fall? It's presumably due to Siri's not being up to its competitors in the AI space.

Q: Hi team,
Is there anything to note on Prl earnings after the conference call? I caught some of it and it sounded good to me. Yet the stock is falling currently 11%. I don’t see where all the negativity is coming from here and what’s not to like here.

Thanks
