Investment Q&A

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

Q: Currently, investment focus is on those companies that are developing technologies centered on AI. Can you speculate on what companies or sectors that will be the next wave to attract investment by being enabled by these new technologies.

Q: Help me understand something about DND.

As per your write up in the Q&A's you were not impressed with DND's latest report.

The market was not impressed with DND's latest report (down appr. 30%)

Why ten would a 5 star analyst with CIBC, Sephanie Price with a 59% success rate ever rank DND a strong buy over the next year with her raising the target from $25 to $28?

You may not/ probably not know her but what do you think she knows that the rest of us don't? Just asking as she is such a well reputed analyst.

Thanks

Q: I am looking at individual bonds from an investment perspective. Bank bonds for example have excellent credit ratings but still have great yields.
So: as an individual investor I don’t mind preparing to carry these to maturity given the yields. But I am also interested to know: if their value goes up in the future, how difficult is it to sell individual bonds at their market value and does it simply replicate the process of stock selling?

Q: Would like to get your view on ETFs that use covered call options to enhance returns. As interest rates plateau and eventually begin to fall is there anything 'in general' that we can expect from these ETFs? Will the share price increase, like bonds, to bring yields more inline with expectations or is the share price more influenced by the underlying share prices of the stocks held in the ETFs?

Q: Hi
I am sorry to have to ask another question about the recent WTS issue of CSU.
I currently own 7 * $100 Unsecured SUB FLTG RT SI with a date of Mar 31 2040 and with a cost of $765 and a MV $955. I also CSU.RT of 40 with MV @ .75 and recently received notification of WTS of 40 at no value. My question is what must I do by Sept 29 if hang onto my current debentures will they lose value ? do I have to do something with the 40 CSU.RT that I have or the 40 WTS just issued. Should I just sell the current debentures on the open market. Totally confused by this despite reading all the recent questions and answers on your website.
Thanks
Kathy

Q: Peter and His Dream Team
In our new world of "Climate Change, Fossil Fuels and Nuclear" does this company have any relevancy? I bought it years ago thinking it had a future. Now I wonder if it is heading for a reverse-split or event Chapter 11...Your assessment and comments please. They are always valuable! Thank you!

Q: Hi 5i,
I like putting you guys on the spot because I can get objective opinions.
If one wanted to buy and hold either CU or AQN today for an RRSP with no short or medium terms plans to sell (ie collect income and hold for long term). Which one would you buy and what would be your high level reasons? I already own a full postion in BIP for my RRSP but I think another multi-utility might be good to own since they seemed to have depressed prices and very good dividends.

Q: Hi 5i
Each of these stocks represent between 2-3 1/2 % of my
portfolio.
Thinking of boosting some up to between 4 1/2 to 5%.
None are at a loss.
Any thoughts of an order to do this?
Thx
Gerry
