Investment Q&A

Q: Looking at what is going on in the USA, if Trump reduces the tax rate to 15% and encourages the money held outside the US to come back will this be USD bullish?
Also can you give me your thoughts on ZRE, REITs are going down, should I be looking to add?

Q: I hold XQQ and have a small gain. In light of the US election result would you recommend holding on to this etf? Or, would you switch to a Dow based etf? Thanks, Bill

Q: About Mark's question, on Twitter, @CdnMortgageNews posted this yesterday: "@EQBank says > 1/2 of its 2016 YTD prime single-family securitized mtgs would not qualify for insurance under the new rules. Src: RBC". Could be a reaction to this. Hope that helps.

Q: The recent quarter saw eps. at -0.03 cents per share and low mining volume. There is no explanation on this. The stock has gone done from recent highs of 4.25 to 3.25. Is this a good entry point or is it time to exit. Thanks to 5i excellent service.

Q: Hi guys. I really enjoy your service and have done well in my investments since joining. I was wondering if there is anything behind the recent weakness in Loblaw that you are aware of? This right now is the worst performing stock in my portfolio. Is this still good for a 2 year hold? Thanks.

Q: Any thought on Equitable Group's latest results? Share value is down over 5% on news of increased dividend, increased EPS and increased ROI. Is this because of the mortgage market overall in Canada?

Q: Now that people have had time to digest news of the election, what are some names you feel have been unfairly punished and are good buying opportunities?

Q: A general question about the drop in Gold prices. It seems from the crystal ball gazers that if Trump spends like crazy that this will fuel inflation which should be good for gold. Why the disconnect?

Q: Hello,

I have a diversified portfolio across all sectors. I recently sold most of my big losers like CXR and PHM etc. I'm now left with the following three losers: MG, ECN/EFN and AD.

I just don't know what to do with these. I'm down about 25% in each. I regret not selling CXR once it was down 25% and instead took a 75% loss and don't want to be in that position again. Should I sell any of these? MG seems to be the best company of the three, but it hasn't recovered this year like other stocks (at least not from where I bought) and now with Trump in there are a lot of fears about the auto sector, and I'm worried it will keep going downhill as NAFTA discussions begin. Anyways, I'm interested in what you think I should do with these three companies.

Q: These three are all tech, but of course, in different sectors. How would you rate them in terms of risk? Which represents the most upside potential from here? What would be your top pick of the three at the moment?
thanks, Len

Q: I am considering taking a position in either Absolute Software or Chesswood Group as I am looking to increase my exposure to small cap with dividends ( I am particularly light on tech ). I would appreciate your choice between these two, and your reasons. Many thanks.
