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 purchasing a $5000.00 5 year bond paying 5% per annum from Solar Share of Toronto. This bond is RSP eligible. Is this a reasonably safe fixed income investment? I have other blue chip stocks in my RSP. I will not need this money for many years.

Is there a tax efficient way to purchase the bond with existing RSP funds? I would like to avoid withdrawal fees from TD, the bank that holds the RSP.
Thanks, Brenda

Q: Calavo Growers - bit of an obscure name but as a U.S. fresh foods provider (mainly avocados) with a good growth rate for sales, earnings and dividends, a good balance sheet and insiders owning over 10% I was wondering whether you'd have an opinion on this one. Thanks for your help!

Thanks for your service.

Q: I have been watching PBH for awhile and was going to purchase then it starting breaking higher again. Is it okay to star to pick away it at this level. It has had a good run and I wonder if I should wait for a pull back as the fall usually has times of volatility or buy some now and add on market weakness.

Q: I need to increase my weighting in the "Technology" space and currently own equal weightings of AVO, MDA, OTC, SYZ and WSP. With $50K to spend, would you buy a new company (I am thinking DH Corp or whatever div paying company you recommend) OR would you just increase your stake in one or more of these currently owned companies. I know you have WSP and DH as "Industrials" but can it not be argued that they are "Tech"?

Q: I am trying to balance out my portfolio sector weightings and am having trouble classifying where these 3 companies should go. I have all 3 of them as "Manufacturing and/or Industrial" whereas you have BOS and MG as "Consumer Cyclicals" and BDI as "Energy". Can it be argued that these are Industrials or should I just stick with your sector classifications?
