Investment Q&A

Q: Saw BNN market Call with Ryan on Friday and another good, informative performance. I noticed when they listed 'holdings' for PBH, it showed a positive tick mark for guest position, household member and guest firm/affiliates. Only investment banking showed no involvement. I was surprised to see this as 5I sells itself as conflict free and I have never seen any possible conflict before. Comments please.

thanks

Q: With this financial storm coming from UK, what do you think of TD? Take the opportunity to buy more or is just a hold?

Q: I currently own Gibson Energy in a locked in RRSP at an average price of $25.00.

My time frame is 10+ years to hold before I convert to a Life Income Fund (similar to a RRIF).

Is it better to:

1 - do nothing and collect the current yield (5.28 %) and wait for recovery in share price.
2 - slowly buy new units at current prices and bring my average price down and increase yield.
3 - sell and reinvest in other companies in the energy infrastructure field (KEY, PPL, IPL, ALA)

Thank you for excellent service.

Q: With a time horizon of 10+ years, i'm looking to start a smith-maneuver portfolio to write off some mortgage interest. Could you please recommend 5-10 top picks that would be suitable for this strategy? Or would you recommend possibly an etf like CPD for something like this.

Thanks!

ps, i tried searching for previous questions in the q&a regarding this topic but couldn't find any, do you know which section they would be filed under?

Q: Manulife is down more than the market and SLF. Is there a company specific reason for this? With a yield over 4% would you consider this a good buy for a long term hold.

Q: Good morning,

Looking to see what insights you can pass along on this speculative junior companywith ties to Halliburton and Ian Telfer.

Can you point any out . Thank you

Q: I own Hertz in my US Margin Account and I am down 49%. Down more than 9% on Friday alone.
I am advised of a reverse split ( never good ) combined with a 1 for 5 spinoff of Hertz's Equipment Division . Should I hang on , or should I run.
Come to think of it, I often get ripped off by car rental companies.

Q: MAL is exposed to EU &Brexit by their UK operations. It's still a hold?

Q: Peter; Does the "vote" change anything at VET? I'm not sure if they supply the UK- maybe a buy opportunity? Thanks.Rod

Q: I've been following Eric Nuttall for quite a while, as he seems like the go to guy for Energy Stocks. His Fund is up 38% as of May/31. I'm thinking of buying into his Fund SPR 006 (A), but in addition to the Mer of 2.5%, there is also a Performance Fee of 10% of excess over S&P/TSX Capped Energy Total return Index. This is confusing!

Would you kindly explain exactly what would be my Total Fees would be on an investment of $1,000?

Many Thanks!

Q: Per BNN,it is a frustrated reaction to slow economic despite stimulus in the form oflow interest rate.People are angry over rising inequality & are anti-globalization,anti-immigrant & anti- elite. There are 4 last ditch efforts that could stop Brexit.the referendum is not legal binding & UK parliament(majority of MPs are on remain side) can vote against Brexit.3mil had signed a re-do referendum which will required Parliament to debate.Eu concessions as to immigration.Unlikely.Scotland & N.Ireland will veto decision of Brexit. As of today Parliament still has not triggered the process, Appreciate 5I blog of 6/24.Positive reaction from Asian markets,US futures,Oil & British pound tonight.Hopefully,N American & Euopean markets will be ok tomorrow

Q: Hello I just read your comments on the Brit exit I agree with what you say and selling into this kind of created market turmoil is suicidal .This is a classic example of the Pigmailia effect the remain side said the market would fall as vote getting strategy and when they lost investors panic but nothing changed Boston pizza is still the same

Q: Priceline is getting murdered today (down over 11%), because of their exposure to Europe - both in terms of revenues and currency exchange - which are assumed to be negatively impacted by the BREXIT vote. At the same time, it is on a growth path, its PE is really not that high for such a solid company, and I can't help but wonder if the sell-off today is overdone. Do you think this is a good entry point into PCLN?
