Investment Q&A

Q: In my TFSA,I have the DRIP turned on.My plan is to have ,half a dozen or so companies or ETF'S which lend themselves well to the DRIP account for the next 4 years, wanting conservative growth.
I currently have FIE,PZA AND EIF.
Are you comfortable with these holdings,and suggest some other names? Thankyou

Q: Which is the cheaper by valuation, Topicus or Lumine right now? Thanks.

Q: Hi,

Which sector you think is worth taking a position in at this point in time as a non correlated asset, IF and WHEN a correction takes place. Not about market timing for I know you don't believe in it! But more as part of portfolio tune up.

Gold/Metals/Utilities/Pvt equities/any other sector that interests you?

Q: I hold XLB in my RRSP. What do you think of swapping the XLB for BEP.UN?

Can you address the answer in various interest rate directions please?

( Between BIP.UN in the RRSP and the BN and BAM outside, I already have 10% exposure to the group. Doing the trade would have me bumping 15%. )

Thank You

Q: Me thinks that spaceship that fearless leader Blaarg is piloting is actually an elaborate can of worms. In 10 years time, according to some environmentalists, we earthlings may be drowning in our own carbon-laced pollution, unless a better solution to or energy needs can be met. As a pessimistic Albertan, I suspect most of us will still be driving evil combustion engines in 2034; however, I am hopeful that there are some game changers in the energy horizon - maybe not Canadian - that may save the planet. Do you have any suggestions we can put on our watchlist? I'm waiting for 5i to beam me up !

Q: Can you please recommend 5 US or Japanese ETFs that will have a revenue of about 10% or more annually, including dividends and capital appreciation, for a conservative investor?

Q: Hi guys,

Still holding this one, any chance it will recover? Meredith

Q: Need to increase U.S. and Internation equity exposures in my RRSP. Current exposures are mainly from VBAL (25% weight of RRSP) and a small position in XLU, ZWU and XGD. I am considering adding SPY for U.S. equities. What do you think about this option, and what would be a good entry point? Also, what would be a good addition to increase international equity (ETF or stocks)? Knowing that you cannot provide personal answers I appreciate very much your comments. Much Thanks

Q: Hey can get your take on these two companies for income and just general value? I know they are different sectors but both compelling yield. Which would you prefer overall. I don’t really care about small cap risk just which do you prefer? Should I just own both. What did you think of their recent quarterly results? Feel free to take 2 creds here thanks.

Q: Follow up question regarding CDR NVDA.

(Answer: NVDA shares represented in its CDRs so they are not split in the same way. )

Currently it shows 0.06903387shares on CIBC website for each NVDA share. Is that means this will go up by 10.(0.06903387 * 10) if they don’t split CDR shares.

Thanks for your great service and support

Q: Hi, AXON has now broken down 20/50/100 day support levels and continues to drift lower, after the recent results (supposedly strong). After 9 straight days of losses and despite yesterday's tick up, it continues to march down. You had cited investors' concerns ( Taser deaths etc ) and profit taking to be the main factors for this large drawdown. Investors' skepticism could also be the high valuation of the stock (10/11X Sales), which is not supported by the growth, as forecasted by the management, in the recent commentary.

Does this stock deserve such high valuation ?

In any case, stock price is what market perceives, at least, in the near term.

Analysts have generally been supportive of the Co but, by nature, by nature, they are most of the times. behind the curve and try to follow the stock price.

I think, if the next quarter is not a blow out quarter with some extraordinary numbers, analysts will start slashing their price targets, in blink of an eye.

It's a Co, highly liked by 5i and certainly you would be keeping a tab on what is going on.

Should we be concerned about the persistent weakness in the stock and move the capital elsewhere ?

Thank You

Q: Stop loss question.
Today pre market the etf spmo has a bid of 74.27. Ask 89.90
Last trade yesterday 81.48
If an investor had a stop loss of ,for example 79.50
Would the low bid take out the shares.

Q: What are your views on TD earnings and what lies ahead? Stock performance is very disappointing. How long do you think it will take for TD to surface and start moving upwards. Looking for a view over the next 3 - 12 months or will it take longer than this? I guess I should ask how much lower you think it might go? When should buyers start buying?

Q: Could you please comment on the latest results. Thanks
Rick

Q: Lithium Americas is hitting new lows.

Keep watching and waiting, or time to start buying?

I’d appreciate your thoughts. Thanks as always.

Marc.

Q: What was popping this on a down day in the market?

Thx

Q: While interest rate predictions remain a big factor for most REIT, biggest concern for me when do big debt maturities are due for this Co. Can you please advise from that perspective whether NWH is able to defer it for longer terms or are they very vulnerable ?

Q: Hello Peter,

Would you pick some after the bought deal? The deal is above the current price and being used to retire debt.
Would appreciate your assessment.
Regards
Rajiv

Thanks very much for your excellent service!

Q: I am underwhelmed with my health sector holdings - ABBV and IHI - both of which have been recently underperforming the market. I have held each for several years in a cash account and they are up 20% and 50%, respectively. I would appreciate your go forward recommendation on both, balancing future prospects, tax consequences and alternative (i.e. faster growing) investments in this sector. Hold or sell? And if sell, replace with what? Thank you.
