Investment Q&A

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

Q: Good evening
In the last two weeks at least three experts recommended either to sell or not to buy TRI. One company that recommended shorting the TRI stock provided the following reason: "Uncertainty surrounding the plan to return $9,000,000,000 to TRI shareholders through a substantial issuer bid.
I own this stock for ten years.
Can you please advise me as to what is a substantial issuer bid and how this affects negatively the common shareholders.
Do you recommend that I sell TRI or should I continue to hold it?
As always I appreciate your insight.

Q: There seems to be a pattern of TC failing to meet earnings estimate (or at least I assume that this is what is causing the drop today). I have nice gains on it to date, but wondering whether or not it is worth continuing to hold. Would appreciate your thoughts
Thanks

Q: Hello
A few months ago I had asked you about going overweight with Crius Energy as a means for covering margin interest. It has worked well for me so far. I do have anear full position in Altagas subscription receipts ALA-R. At today's prices, would you recommend going overweight here as well so as to cover some margin interest?

Q: Hi,
I am thinking that the recent drop may present an opportunity to enter into the US Aerospace & Defense sector at a bit of a discount. Is it better to use ETFs, or choose one or two top rated stocks? I don't know how you compare the costs of ETFs and could use a primer on what to look for / what to avoid when considering them, as I mostly use stocks or debentures.
As always, we appreciate you're thoughts and insight.
