Investment Q&A

Q: Hi, Hammond Power stock is now tracing back to the levels, traded at, two quarterly earnings ago, down to $98, from a high of $160, not long ago. Apparently, the sell off was caused by some stock compensation concerns and profit taking. From business, operations and financial perspective, company seems solid and stock, now trading at a low valuation of 16/17 times forward earnings ( I believe ). With power/electricity consumption and infrastructure demand , expected to multiply exponentially ( AI/Data Centres etc ) over several years, market for company's speciality transformers should continue to be strong with a long runway of growth.

Analysts are still quite bullish on the co. with price targets ranging from $156 to $167.

So, in your opinion, what could be the basis of the continued weakness in its stock price ?

Do you believe that stock will be higher, say 50%, in 2-3 years from now and should be bought/added aggressively at these depressed levels ?

Thank You

Q: Thank you for your response to my question regarding TKN. While is is helpful to know how much money the fund manager charges, 0,70 MER. I am more interested in how much money the investor makes. Has this ETF made money for investors?

Q: If Trump wins the election in November, he has threatened to write executive orders against development of wind power as well as reduce incentives for all clean energy, wile promoting fossil fuels. You have often liked BEPC for a safe long-term investment (and I own a full position in it). How much will a Trump victory hurt the future growth of BEPC?

Q: Good afternoon,

I know there has been much angst here with Telus. And your responses in recent months have been very well thought out and helpful (rates; competitive/regulatory environment). I have a 2% weight in BCE, 1% weight in T. So not massive by any means. But the slow steady drip downwards in price is getting frustrating, and now seeing the price today lower than where it was in the depths of COVID in March 2020 is concerning. At what point do I just take the 1% in T and add to BCE?

Q: Your thoughts on Smart Centres please?
Will this and another REITS do well as rates move lower? Nice Yield.
Thanks

Q: With UMAX trading close to its 52 week low and yielding 13.8% would this be a logical time to buy and expect a likely increase in share price plus the current dividend $?

Thanks

Q: How much longer would you let CLS run with a 7% position now in your growth portfolio?

Thx

Q: There haven't been a lot of questions on Teck in the past few month, and I see you recommended it as a long term hold. It's had a good run up - does It still have legs for 2+ years, or is it clearly a 5+ year hold? I own Capstone - is there too much overlap here?

Q: The price of BN.PR.C has dropped significantly since the first week of May. The steepest drop was at the time of the prime interest rate decrease by the B of C. Should one expect similar price drops as interest rates decrease? This preferred share now yields 11.46%. If looking for income, would you have any concerns regarding buying a part position now?
Thank you.
