Investment Q&A

Q: When comparing the two companies would you say there’s a lot of overlap in their businesses? Is one diversified enough in healthcare owning both and if not, which would you prefer? Also, could you recommend a few HC stocks that would compliment either? Thanks!

Q: I hold MPW with moderate capital gain, appreciate your advice on selling MPW and buying NHI.

Thanks

Q: PBH and NWC are my current consumer defensive holdings (~5% each, after recent reallocation) in my Canadian unregistered dividend-focused account. PBH in particular has had nice growth.
TD Waterhouse's research are "predicting" MFI's high $45, median $36 target, from a current level of ~$28.
What are your thoughts on the achievability of this, on MFI's metrics, management and prospects otherwise, and whether a switch from PBH to MFI is indicated or not.
Thanks for your continuing great service.

Q: Good Morning Peter & Team,

I know you don't endorse timing. And I don't want to move away from long term strategies holding good names. But there are trends that at time present themselves.

Industrials are experiencing some misses in the current reporting period because of the supply chain issues. A guest commentator on BNN mentioned they expect good quality industrials will be lowering their expectations moving forward. The supply chain challenges will get fixed and when this happens with these lowered expectations in place, this same commentator said the Industrial Sector could perform quite well.

Do you think this is going to happen? And if so, which names would stand out for you? Does Eaton Corp (ETN) make the list?

Thanks for all you do

Q: How do you see this company managing in an inflationary environment? Do you see this as a good entry point? Are there other names in this sector you would prefer right now? Interested in dividends. Thank you!

Q: Do you have a preference for Firm Capital Mortgage (FC) or Firm Capital Property (FCD.UN)? Would you buy either, both or neither for stable income and any reason(s) would be appreciated. Thanks.

Q: Would you expect the North American goods shortages to affect the results of industrial REITS such as DIR.UN? I'm thinking that with fewer goods to put in them the warehouses will be underutilized and now might be as good as it gets for these stocks.

Q: Presently I own TCN and its only 2% on my real estate exposure should i add more or add another real estate holding like CAR.UN.CA CIGA:CA or is there others you would recommend. I have about $500,000 in my portfolio what should my real estate exposure be in % terms. Thanks for you help with this

Q: Greetings - can you comment on why this one would be down recently. is there some market shift of actual business results (which i cannot find) that would explain the softness in the price.

Q: I asked a question about XSTH a few days ago. Your main concern was the fact that it was new and very small asset wise. What about if I bought STIP on the Us exchange instead? It has been around since 2010 and has more assets. What would your opinion be on this?

Q: Looking for your comments on this stock now that it has completed a financing. I have read that their technology is pretty good, but it seems to have a hard time getting any traction.

Q: Hi, Given the preliminary report on earnings and the covid related shutdown, what are your thoughts on Ichor going forward.
Cheers, Chris
As always, take care and keep up the good work

Q: Do you think CVX is an investable company at this point?

Thank you,

Mike

Q: Hi,

It seems to me that the good days of the above ETFs are now behind them. They have been loosing speed, as for instance ARKG going from a yield of 33% over 3 years to 18% over 1 year.

What is your assessment of these ETFs at this time. Would you hold or sell to remplace them by ETFs with better growth potential ? If so, which ones would you suggest ?

Thanks a million,

Jacques IDS

Q: Hello. A forced choice request. I have been tracking these 6 captionally noted US stocks for some time. At the moment I have capital to invest in three new positions. My interest is in growth, and I'm planning to hold for min 5 to max 10 years. Clearly, I'm an investor and not a trader. From this list, which 3 stocks would you anticipate might hold the best prospects for continued growth over that time span. Thanks!

Q: I would like to add to 5 of the above positions in my TFSA. Based on the current environment, which 5 positions would benefit the most from a larger base. Thank you.

Q: Greetings 5i team.

In looking at Q's archives, I do not see a question that required a review of current state of affairs.
May I please have your retroactive views on SCL's Aug/21 results and outlook? Please also include the earnings estimates coming up in Nov/21 and advise if you see value in the equity of SCL.

Many thanks for your assessment.

Q: Dear 5i team.

I am considering a switch from CPX to NPI and wanted to know your views on these two matched head to head. Is there a better alternative to switch to in the same space?


Many thanks.

Q: Can you please suggest a few US listed companies in the semiconductor space who should see price appreciation as we come out of the supply chain issues / chip shortage over the next 12-24 months. Thank you

Q: WELL has been checking all the boxes. Yet they are stuck near their 52 week low. Any ideas why?
