Investment Q&A

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

Q: I have held ATS for almost 3 years with a capital gain of 13%. I would like to see a larger gain in the future but note the fall in order bookings & backlog. Do you think this is a sign of future problems ? Do you think ATS is worth continuing to hold or are there other companies that you would favour. Other Industrial sector holdings are BOS, LNR, CJT, WSP, DRT, XTC, KBL.
Thank you as always.

Q: HI guys,
I own shares in ESL which is down 25% this year so far. I am debating adding to this sector by purchasing SH or selling ESL. What are your expectations for SH for 2016-2017?
I also own MST.UN through a non registered personal account and am looking to buy D.UN-they are giving a 9.2% return. Would you consider this a good acquisition given the low real estate environment in Alberta? Do you think keeping this in a personal non- registered account is a good move with respect to taxes?
Also I plan to buy shares in Suncor and then doing closed calls. I have never done this before and am nervous about it because I don't really understand it. I also don't know which website to use to research calls and sells on a daily basis. Any suggestions?
Thanks for all your help,
Rob

Q: Morning - I am a long time member and have done well over the years with a few of your small cap recommendations. I am curious if you can recommend a small - cap ETF for both US & Canadian markets (one for each) that you like?

Q: I read thru the MD&A this morning and what I THINK I see is an albeit very small company that now has competent management (Eli Dadouch of Firm Capital basically booted the previous idiot out) with high insider ownership (30%) and a turnaround that, while far short of complete is definitely in effect. Your thoughts on this impression and more importantly your estimate of the simple NAV of the company? I see about $76 mill assets minus about $51 mill liabilities for a NAV of about $25 mill against a market cap of about $10 mill. Many thx!

Q: Parkland announced a $300 million Senior Notes Offering which will be used to fund a portion of the CST assets. The announcement said that it has entered into an underwriting agreement to sell, pursuant to a private placement, $300 million aggregate principal amount of 5.75% senior unsecured notes due September 16, 2024. The offering is expected to close on September 16, 2016.
After issue, do notes trade like an equity stock? If not, please explain "notes".
What is your opinion of this offering? Would it be a good holding in an RRSP which must soon convert to a RRIF.
Thank you.
Nadine
