Investment Q&A

Q: Hello 5i,
Congratulations for your new website and thank you for your good work.

In my TFSA, I have the following stocks:

Aberdeen Asia-Pacific Inc.
Chesswood Group
Crescent Point Energy
Photon Control (You had recommended this one a few months ago, and I am up 16%. Thank you for the good recommendation.)
Sherritt Intl.

I am down 70% on Crescent Point and 55% for Sherritt.

I have a 10 year plus investing time horizon.

Should I hold onto CPG and S and just be patient?
If not, and you recommend to sell either one or both of them, what stock(s) would you recommend as a replacement?

I am looking for growth and income.
Currently, CPG is around $4,000 and so is S.
Thank you.

Q: I currently hold TCN in my TFSA but am considering a switch to SIS. I understand these are two totally different companies but am looking for a little more torque to the upside with SIS. Your thoughts ?

Q: Would love to hear your thoughts on Tidewater Midstream's recent announcement to undertake big project with regards to $210M Montney gas plant ? How much value can this project bring to the company ? Also, how do you foresee them paying for it? Do you foresee a equity issue coming soon ?

Thanks a bunch! Love your opinions.

Q: Can you please comment on the recent earnings? Would this stock be buyable at these prices?

Q: I have a very small (and getting smaller) position in TSL. Based on YTD (bad) and current quarter (looks to be worse) results, is it worth holding? I would consider selling just as a clean-up exercise.

Q: Hi !

Have been trying to get to previous questions on Itron, but I never get to the answer even after many refresh "CTRL+F5".

In any case, why the huge drop on Thursday in the price of the action, and what is your assessment of that company now ? How do you see the future of the stock ? A buy or a sell for now ?

Thank you so much for your assistance,

Jacques

Q: Hi, I am helping my in-laws manage their retirement savings, and I would like to have suggestions for investing the remaining balance in my father-in-law's RRIF (about $7000). The rate of withdrawal is fairly high as he is now 92. I was thinking the best way would be to invest in a balanced, dividend or bond mutual fund, to avoid commissions. This mutual fund, composed of various ETFs, is managed by Larry Berman. It seems to generate a decent and constant dividend, without much volatility. The series D has an MER of about 1.17%. What do you think of this fund? Would you have other suggestions? The overall portfolio is very diversified and of course fairly conservative. Thanks for your service.

Q: Please comment on Open Text's earnings. The GAAP - net income /eps (0.14) seems to be on the low side - this is what expected? If not whats going on here? Can you also comment on whether the cash flows are in line with what's expected?

Q: Hello team, Results seem disappointing.....your thoughts please. Is it worth holding or better to put the money to work somewhere else?
Thanks, Silvia

Q: Hi there, I already own most of the Balanced Equity Portfolio (except for the more conservative yield names) and am looking to add some names from the Growth Portfolio. At the current moment, what would be your top 5 best ideas from the Growth Portfolio to start with? Thank you for your great service!

Q: comments please on the quarter?

Q: Am considering a small position in India. FIH.U is tempting me but I realize it is a much different structure than other ETF's. Could you give me your favorite Indian ETF's with FIH.U ranked among them ? And your opinion of FIH.U ?

Q: Parkland released results. What is your take on them including how they are doing with acquisitions? I own PKI.

Q: Q3 seems to be a disappointment. Management says that they expect to be back on track next year. If so, I would pick up a half position on any weakness in the next few days. Do you know them well? What is your opinion on their credibility?

Q: How to check PHO has a momentum buy signal.?
Thanks always.

Q: Good time to buy some Pure Industrial or would you wait for a correction down-the-pike? Thank you.

Q: I have become overweight in MFC, and wondering if I should shift some of this investment to SLF. Your thoughts or alternative suggestions to keep in the same sector? Thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Hi, can you explain the almost 4% drop of CGX today? Would you buy on this drop, or wait until earnings on the 7th? What are the expectations for their earnings?

Q: Not a question just another compliment, I was enjoying working through your new website and reading "the great new website comments" as I read questions and answers and then I clicked on the AQN profile while reading a question. Not a a great new website ..... A Fantastic New Website! What a wealth of information you have put in. I usually read the questions with another monitor showing one or two stock sites so I can see closing prices, dividends, graphs etc at the same time. You now have all that plus. Great job and many thanks, After an hour and a half on here, I have a feeling that there is still more to discover here. Am most happy that last week I extended my subscription to June 2020!
Thanks again for your insights and now your access to more info.

Q: Could you give me your opinion on AAR as per growth potential and dividend
