Investment Q&A

Q: Thoughts on these aerospace companies? TDG and HEI have been great compounders over long term and LOAR is a fairly newcomer. Can you compare the fundamentals against each other and if you wanted to buy now, how would you rank them? LOAR has higher growth potential but valuation is higher too. Thanks!

Q: Peter,

I know this has been asked before but worth repeating I think. I cannot locate the earlier answers. How would you play the big increase in defense spending Canada if faced with.

Thank you

Q: Given the current trade situation which has affected TFI, it has most certainly affected other transport companies as well. Is TFI currently financially strong enough to take advantage and make some acquisitions

Q: It appears FN is to be acquired, but the pref shares are remaining as is and will still trade as before on the tse.
Why then did this pref advance by 9% on this announcement. Is it the fact it is now backed by Brookfield

Q: Hello

Can you please comment on Laurentian Bank. I am very disappointed in this company as the price has fallen significantly in addition to dividends cut a few years back.
its in my registered account, so cannot utilizes the losses
My question, Do you think that they are a potential take over target? Perhaps TD?

With BCE, again very disappointed in this company. With their recent dividend cut, do you think we have seen bottom on stock price? I do see that it has had some growth lately, but it has a long way to go

With CGO, Do you think that their is an opportunity for both Telus and Cogeco to merge? Or see CGO as a take over target now?

Thank you

Q: Hello,
I recently came across this ETF,. The performance in all yearly metrics is really quite impressive, beating all inclusive ETFs like SPY, DIA and even QQQ. Interestingly, there have been no questions asked about this when I searched. Do you have any thoughts on this ETF? Thank you for your excellent services.

Q: Good morning, I’m thinking about selling DSG and buying PRL or EIF. This would be for my TFSA. Which of the two would be a better option. No concerns about allocation,thanks.

Q: Hi 5i,
Please explain what I am missing about LMN, which is a name I know you are high on, and which has obviously done well as far as share price appreciation is concerned.
When I review its numbers nothing jumps out at me as a reason to buy - in fact, the opposite: EPS is -1.73; Revenue is substantial but no earnings that I can see - in fact pre-tax profit margin is -210.10%. ROE, ROA and ROC all seem meh to me, while price to sales and price to book seem high.
If it wasn't for 5i's recommendations regarding LMN, based on the numbers I don't think I would give it a second look.
I'm not adverse to owning it, especially given that lots of others seem to want to, and are willing to pay dearly for it. But why would I -or why would anyone else? Is it solely because its a CSU spinoff?
Please enlighten me. Thanks!
Peter

Q: What are the pros/cons of buying shares in a company where the CEO owns 87% of the shares.I know you like to see insider ownership but is there a point where too much ownership by one person limits the stocks ability to appreciate. Do you like GRGD as a buy at this point?

Q: Taken from G&M Thursday: Kraken Robotics Inc : Canaccord Genuity raises target price to C$4 from C$3.50 but downgrades rating to “hold” from “buy.
