Investment Q&A

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

Q: I hold smaller positions of the above collection of what I would consider to be "second tier" income stocks in an unregistered account. I also have BIP.UN, CSH.UN and HR.UN in a TFSA. I want to raise a bit of cash before the snow melts; which two or three of these would you sell first?

Thanks for the wonderful service - I've just renewed again!

Q: What was the fundamental reason(s) for Gibson Energy's slow decline to ~ 1/3 its value from sep 2014 to Jan 2016 and are those reasons still true today? It still pays a fairly hefty dividend of ~7% but is it safe and by that I mean is there a danger of the stock taking another relentless dive down?

Q: Hi 5i,great information. Only wish I had found you sooner. I am a 60yr DYI investor, I inherited 100,000 and decided to invest with a CIBC financial advisor in a balanced ETF.
Now seeing your great site I am thinking to move my money, into one of your suggested model portfolio's (save on fees & diversify).
My personal investments are both ETF & stocks I am heavy in financials & precious metals. I have just recently started the google app which is helping me to identify where I am heavily weighted.
What are your thoughts to have mixed investments? Or move ahead doing all investments on my own? Looks like a lot of work to initiate but once engaged perhaps not so much work?

Thanks

What are your thoughts?

Q: Hello,

I am thinking about selling my DOL position and moving into MDA. I have held DOL for a while with no traction. I feel the upside could be $5.00 per share, but the downside could be sizable with any earnings miss, etc. There appears to be better analyst price appreciation with MDA, and with the new acquisition for the imaging company it could play into US defense commencements?? Any comments on this thought process would be great. Thank you.

Q: Eguana Technologies (EGT) looks like it is now, finally, poised to start generating revenue. They are now talking about having $5 million on the order books, though there have been no formal announcements. The stock is pretty much at one year lows, despite the numerous tier-one partnerships, energy storage market momentum, and apparent company momentum.

What would be your views, now?

Thanks,
David
