Investment Q&A

Q: Over the past two years I have acquired all three of the above companies and they now (together) comprise 10% of my portfolio. Do you see any problems with this? My portfolio is well diversified.
THANKS!
Bryan

Q: Hello,

I would like to start a new full position in an non-registered account. What would be your suggestions at the moment for growth and long-term (5-10 years+)?

Thank you,

Q: HI PETER, I HAVE FEW SMALL HOLDINGS. WHICH ONES CAN GO OR BE CONSOLIDATED, BETWEEN VNR, ENB, WCP.
THANKS

Q: Your thoughts and analysis on the SIS Acquisition as well as PUR financial results?
Thanks!

Q: Hey Guys, can you comment on earnings and if you would buy more or hold?

Thanks

Q: I own 1400 shares of VSN,collecting $117 per month! What will I collect from PPL per month in November?

Q: Please advise the price of subscription receipts for SIS's acquisition.Thanks

Q: Your comments on the 2016 results, please, as well as the new acquisition. Does this explain today's drop?

Q: I own them both in significant quantity. Vsn trading about $18.16 and Ppl at about $42.56. Do you see any arbitrage trade between the two at this level or do you have any comments about this first day of trading after the news?

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
Recently you gave good analysis as to why FLEX retreated despite a strong QR. You stated it was because they lowered future earning from $0.30 to $0.28-$0.24 for the next quarter. You also stated that you preferred CLS over FLEX. If FLEX is forecasting continued growth for the next 2 years and CLS appears more stagnant...I am wondering why you think CLS has more potential going forward. Or do you just think FLEX will have a misstep. Please clarify. Your analysis is invaluable to us retail investors as we search for facts before we make decisions!
As always...thanks!

Q: What are your thoughts on this takeover by PPL? It is a good long term move for the company? Pros and Cons please.

As always, your advice is highly valued.

Q: Advice re the Pembina/Veresen deal. VSN is up and Pembina is down. Would you sell VSN and then purchase PPL with the proceeds on the hope it returns to its original price.

Q: Do not own this stock, but will this not be a perfect storm for a class action suit. I can't believe the sites are not full of lawyers advertising.
Thanks

Q: Would you buy Pembina now knowing about the up-coming deal with Veresen. I see Pembina is down today so has it become a good investment buy for a long term hold and dividend income security?

Q: I own both companies, should I sell Veresen or take the .4287 PPL exchange,either of those options would take me over a 5% allocation in my portfolio. If I sold the VSN and wanted another pipeline company who would recommend.

Q: Hi 5i

I am looking for investments that distribute primarily through Return of Capital, such that the cost base can be ground down to a point where it may make a lot of sense to donate the shares to charity, shelter the entire gain while having extracted most of my cost base. I imagine that most of these things will be in the REIT space, but I am open to anything.

Thanks,

David

Q: These are some stocks in my Margin Account that don't pay a dividend . In my RSP, I have BCE , ABT , BPF.UN , and REITS and royalty trusts that pay great dividends .I have a fortune sitting in my RSP that keeps on growing due to dividends but I am 67 years old with a pretty low income . I am thinking that I be rotating these names and increasing my dividend income rather than increasing my RRIF liability in a few years ? I would really appreciate your advice - Thankyou for helping me have such "problems" .

Q: I'm looking to add to my TSFA acc. I know you like all 3 but, how would you rank in order of preference at this particular time and which do you think has the biggest up side in the next 1-2 years.

Q: Can you please comment on the recent NXJ results, they don't seem to sit well with the market. Do you think it has potential?

Q: Back around the New Year, there was much concern about TOY and the reaction to consumers complaining about the Hatchimals they purchased as gifts. 5i suggested patience and reiterated their confidence that TOY management would resolve the issues. I thought, therefore, that it might be worth noting the following comments made by the lawyers for the plaintiffs who had filed a class action lawsuit that was withdrawn a could of weeks ago.

"Mark Geragos, the lawyer who voluntarily withdrew the law suit on behalf of the plaintiff added, "Spin Master's proactive response was very successful and, to date, they have either responded to all of the outstanding questions or provided replacements, or refunds to consumers. We applaud Spin Master for the highly effective manner in which they have dealt with their customers. Given these factors, we have decided to voluntarily withdraw our class action."

This speaks highly - again - to the quality of advice we members receive from you. TOY is now trading at all-time highs.

Thanks!
