Investment Q&A

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

Q: It seems that the telco sector will faced with challenges for the foreseeable future with price pressures on fees (I see it on my own bills) and likely not being able to recover for quite sometime. It was easier to sell the position on the non registered account and take advantage of the tax loss. I have kept my positions in the registered accounts for the dividend but am now wondering if perhaps a sell would be make sense and what to replace them with. Any ideas with some dividend and a little bit of growth?
Much appreciated.

Q: I did really well buying oil stocks when oil tanked 4 years ago, and holding during the recovery. What beaten up sector do you feel has great recovery potential like this currently? Would REIT's qualify since rate cuts appear to be coming soon, or are you not as confident in the recovery due to vacancy's & recession possibility? Thx

Q: Peter,

In the recent ETF newsletter it mentions the numerator in the Free cash flow calculation is arrived at by subtracting operations cash flow from its capital expenditures. I don't believe this is correct. Should it not be subtract capital expenditures from total cash flow?

Thanks

Paul

Q: I'm down 15% on TFII in my unregistered account. Do you see any short term bounce ? I am considering if I should sell to claim the capital loss? Understanding that this is my choice, would you sell for the capital loss my place? If so would you buy it back after the 30 days or move to something else?
Thanks

Q: An alien spaceship lands outside your office. The alien leader, Blaarg, walks (crawls? slithers? floats?) into your office and says "We just sold some diamonds we brought with us, and got $10 million of your colourful Canadian currency. We want to invest in some of your Canadian stocks, about 12 - 15 of them. Please do so for us. We are going to tour your solar system for a decade. We particularly want to check out the volcanoes on Jupiter's moon Io and the rings of Saturn. When we return we expect to have made at least a 10% annual return. If the return is less than that, we will destroy your planet. Have a nice decade".

Which Canadian stocks are you going to select for the aliens?
