Investment Q&A

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

Q: I am considering consolidating some of the listed companies because I have small positions in them. Do you have 2 or 3 favorites for a long term hold.

Q: What are the chances that a deal can be made with 7/11 at this point?

I read recently that 7/11 is pursuing a dual-track : exploring a possible sale to ATD or going it alone as a more focused business. As part of plans to remain independent, it is selling underperforming supermarkets and has announced plans to list a portion of its U.S. retail operation to fund a massive stock buyback.

I also understand that if the deal goes through with ATD, there will be a lot of debt for awhile.

Is this a good time to buy ATD? If yes, what would be an appropriate price to acquire it? (5+ year time frame)

I am looking for a stock with some sort of dividend, along with a good chance of high appreciation in share price over time. The chart history of ATD over the last 10 years is impressive. If there are other well-managed Canadian companies with reasonable debt that fit this profile better, please suggest them (with a entry price).

They do not have to be in the same sector as ATD. However, I am already heavy in financials. Thank you for your valuable input.

Q: Good morning,

Could you please give me your prospectus on Eminent Gold Corp. It’s of course on the risky side. But has had some positive developments as of late. I was looking to add a long shot to my gold portfolio.

If you’d shed some more light on it that would be great. Thank you.

Q: Good morning, In a recent question I inquired about brokers that held U.S. stocks in U.S. funds in a RRIF accounts . I asked this question, as much to my surprise Wealthsimple does not hold U.S. stocks in U.S. funds in a RRIF account. They are held in CAD. I am looking at Qtrade and TD invest for this account. Is there a preference? Open to any ideas. Thank you.
