Investment Q&A

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

Q: Is there any particular news about why the Trade Desk (TTD) continues to decline? I thought the last quarter was quite strong. I also read there are rumors that Netlfix is considering ads which I would assume TTD would benefit greatly from. Can you comment on your thoughts moving forward.

Thanks for the fantastic service!

Q: As a follow-up to my earlier question since TA owns 60% of RNW and according to the Globe the market cap of RNW is $4.9 billion, TA's share of RNW would be $2.94 billion. TA's total market cap is $3.45 billion. How would you asses the value of TA's other assets. Are any of these assets in renewable energy.

Q: Hi Peter

I have question regarding the following list of “fallen angels”. These ten stocks have achieved significant drops in valuation since Dec. 31, 2020. Can you please rank these “fallen angels” in terms of the best risk-return profile over a five-to-ten-year hold? Everyone likes a bargain! Sometimes it is possible to survive a falling knife particularly if you use tungsten as a shield!

We cannot all be superman!

Thanks for your service?

Q: I'm in the fortunate position of sitting on a double here in just a few short weeks. NTR represents almost 4% of my quite well diversified portfolio in a cash account. I'd rather not pay CRA a capital gains tax but don't want to see my investment reverse either. What would you do? Partial sell to allow for zero cost? Nothing?

Thank you kindly,

Geoffrey.

Q: I am looking to add a US blue-chip industrial company. How would you rank MMM, HON, ITW and ROP for management quality and overall business prospects? Given their current prices, how would you rank them for total return potential if purchased today for a long term hold?

Q: You used to be quite positive on GILD in response to subscriber questions asking for recommendations in the US Healthcare sector. Have you given up on the GILD turnaround story? At what price would you buy in?

Now, your top choice seems to be ABBV on the basis that it is performing better and your belief that Humira patent issues are well-known and baked into the stock price. However, ABBV is trading at an all-time high (not just a 52 week high) and GILD is trading at a price that is a 52 week low and lower than its closing price in 2013. Which stock has the better risk-return profile and why? Even if you think ABBV is the better long term investment, I am still nervous buying in at all-time high prices - what would be a good entry point on a pull-back?

Q: Peter,

Go on the assumption that we will be in for a period of slow and consistent interest rate increases. I am very interested in how a bond fund could possibly increase the NAV during this period. For every uptick in the rates every single holding, whether of a short or long duration loses value. Do you agree ? What could a fund manager possibly do during this period to actually increase the NAV? I guess I am interested in the tricks of the trade or is it simply grab the umbrella and hope the rain eventually stops.

Thank you

Paul

Q: Peter,

You brought up a mention of female vs male investors in the recent edition of the Moneysaver. I assume you are speaking of the DIY group. What percentage of this group do you think are males vs females and the reasons for.

Thank you

Paul

Q: Do you think it is worth continuing to patiently hold NVTA in my RSP or is it time to sell ? Of course with no tax loss available for an RSP.

I thought the NVTA Feb report and guidance was encouraging.

Also, do you see NVTA moving to profits in the next couple of years, or at least convincing investors that growth is sufficient to entice 'growth investors' while waiting for eventual profits.

Thanks!
