Investment Q&A

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

Q: CHPT held a lot of promise but now I find myself looking at a 30% loss on paper after the GM,F & TSLA news.

Any significant opportunity for a recovery or time to sell and move on?

If I do sell where could I deploy the funds in terms of staying with a growth stock ( with much less risk than Chpt , especially the balance sheet)

Thanks.

Q: Is it too late to get into Ford after its price appreciation? I’m considering switching from Magna to Ford. Do you have a preference. We also hold Granite REIT which does get much if it’s revenue from Magna properties, so wondering if holding Ford instead would improve diversification. Thanks lots!

Q: Back in February 5i had responded to an MG vs TIH comparison request. I guess I was a bit surprised that you had favoured MG. I'm trying to understand MG's risks in the new EV world. How dependent is MG on the legacy companies for business? If they are quite dependent, are there not a lot of legacy costs (and therefore disruption risks) with these type of companies compared to the Teslas of the auto world who have built from the ground up on EV production? Maybe it's a case of MG having other avenues of growth in EV design and production that I'm not aware of.

Regarding TIH, what is its historic yield range ? Is the upper part of the range about 2.3% ?

Q: Hello, I am overweigh Tesla as I love the product and observe it is family of products including EV's, Energy production (Solar) and retail (Supercharging). All with revenue growth potential. My question has to do with trading volume. Over the last few weeks I have observed Tesla's trading volume at multiples of the big guys, say Ford and GM. A few minutes ago, Ford traded about 5 million shares, GM 2 million and Tesla 25 million. Can you comment on the interest in Tesla and how it could factor in the future stock evaluation ? How important is trading volume ? Thanks for your excellent service.

Q: What would you consider to be a minimum net profit margin I should be targeting for companies? I was interested in Magna on this pullback but noticed their NPM is in the mid/low single digits which seems skinny for a manufacturer. Thanks

Q: Hi Team

What is your feeling about Ford?, I am looking at p\e of 2 and a yield of 4.5 %, comparing it with Tesla, it seems like a much better buy, with them going into the ev market, with other car companies does that not put pressure on Tesla. I know that Tesla has a lead but others are pouring billions of dollars into the ev.

Thanks

Q: Greetings,

1) Which vehicle manufacturers may potentially "catch up" with Tesla over the next decade? (U.S or Canadian listed)

2) I have compared Ford vs General Motors and even though they seemingly do the same thing their current state of affairs appear different. Should we Buy Ford or GM or both (hedge my bets!) ?


Many thanks!

Q: Good Morning Peter & Team.

I have two questions. Please charge me accordingly. Both have to do with ramifications from increasing cost of OIL.

1. Do you think the ever increasing price of gasoline is going to push more people towards EV and if so, what would be your recommended play to take advantage of this?

2. Commodities especially those coming from mining, and especially those used in the EV industry, appear to be on the rise. What recommendations would you make for us to take advantage of this trend? Right now I have RIO & DML on my radar.

Thanks for all you do

Q: The three large auto companies mentioned are currently trading at 'low' trailing P/E (6.9 to 9.8) and forward P/E (5.7 to 8.5) multiples according to the Globe & Mail Investor service. Why would they be trading at, what on the surface, appears to be such 'attractive' levels?
Thank you. Edward
