Investment Q&A

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

Q: The above companies are all down considerably in the last few months. Do you see any of them continuing on a downward trend such that it is best to sell now, and take the loss, and invest in something more stable? Or do you foresee any of these companies rebounding from their lows such that they are currently great buy low candidates? If so which one(s)?

Q: I am considering increasing my investments in pipelines. I am looking at Enbridge but I have noticed over the last 3 weeks a number of analysts on BNN when questioned about Enbridge have indicated that although there is nothing wrong with Enbridge they consider that there at better opportunities in the sector - they seem to talking about Pembina & TC Energy. I would be interested to hear your thoughts. I know that your recent review of Enbridge was B+

Q: Given the current debate between the merits of commodity and tech stocks, just for fun, who do you think wins the following hypothetical stock picking contest? Total return.

"Chip" has picked CSU, KXS, DSG, OTEX, LSPD, TIXT, TOI, NVEI, CTS and TCS. "Rocky" has picked TECK.B, LUN, AEM, CMMC, NTR, CNQ, ARX, TOU, WCP, TVE.

I would like to know your opinion for 1 year from now and for 2 years from now. Who wins and would it be a close or a wide margin?

Q: Like many people. I'm currently down quite a bit on a lot of growth stocks even though I bought them well below their all-time highs. For example, I'm down 50% on PYPL, 45% on Roku, 35% on Shop.

I have decades before retirement (and I do have a pretty balanced portfolio) so I'm not worried about my investments over the long-term, but it still hurts to see quite a bit of my positions so deep in the red.

I know it's impossible to predict (and it's always possible that some of these growth stocks will never recover), but in your experience how long do you think we could reasonably expect it to take before some of these growth stocks recover?

For example do you think it's reasonable for us to expect it to take 3 years, 5 years, 10 years for the above mentioned stocks (like PYPL, ROKU, SHOP) to recover?

Q: Hi team,
Given the tensions around Russia and Ukraine and the increased likelihood that we may see a war in Ukraine, what sectors do you think would be less likely to see a negative impact from this conflict? Are there sectors that may benefit if we do see war in Ukraine?

Appreciate your insight on this.

Q: Hi Team;
I know that you often say “no one rings a bell at the bottom” but I do seem to recall some time ago you suggested a number of indicators one could watch for? One of them might have had to do with intra-day reversals, and maybe another was volume related?
Thanks,

Q: I have very little exposure to staples and industrials in my portfolio, which is mainly composed of ETFs. What do you think of these companies, which are all rated outperform by RBC? Is KPT a good proxy for staples? If not, what would you suggest? Please rate the other three in the industrials category in order of preference. Thank you.
