Investment Q&A

Q: I know this stock is very dead money, but I have not sold it as it is in my TFSA. Any hope of a revival, or should I just sell it, if I can, and erase the loss.
Many thanks.

Q: I'm very interested in VRT. When do they report? I may buy some now and more after they report.
Much much thanks

Q: What is the most you would let NVDA run in your portfolio before you would trim it?

Q: Good Morning
According to the information provided by my broker, the CEO of ATD has reduced the number of common shares held from about 970,000 shares to just over 300,000 in January 2024.
Do you view this as significant ?
Thank you as always for your insight.

Q: The last question about this ETF was on February 08, 2022.

On BNN recently, Larry Berman suggested buying PAVE “on a dip”, especially if one’s portfolio has too much Technology and thus increased risk. We are overweight Technology, but underweight U.S., so this ETF is appealing. Do you concur? Also, to buy “on the dip”, what might a good entry price be? Finally, are there better ETF alternatives in the U.S. infrastructure space that should be considered? Thanks.

Q: Considering taking a position (up to 2%) in a dividend paying oil/gas company, and looking at FRU or WCP. Could I get your comments on the royalty structure vs a producer, as well as a comparison of the metrics such as payout percentage, debt, guidance, etc. Do you have a preference, and would you even consider adding an oil producer at this time. I have some ETFs with small positions in some oil companies, but no direct holdings of my own.
Thank-you

Q: I understand that BKCL is a fund of funds having only BKCC as a holding using covered call strategy with some leverage with a higher yield than BKCC. BKCC is a covered call with no leverage. I am a 77 year old with a diversified value portfolio of individual stocks and ETF's with about 17% of the portfolio in covered call ETF's. I have many of the ETF holdings as individual stocks, blue chips, for the dividends and gains. Please suggest which would be the preferred way to go, BKCL or BKCC.

Q: Good morning, what is your view of OCI? it is invested in many other companies but the stock doesn't move up at all. 14% of MIS, 11% AE, 3% of QCCU, 15% of ARIC, and 43% of Cuprum Corp. Some of this investments are interesting like AE and QCCU . The market cap of OCI does not match the value of its investments??
Thanks,
George

Q: AQR Capital Management, saw its Delphi Long Short Equity Strategy post a return of 7.1% in January alone.

What do you think of ETF's like this?

Is there one [or more] in Canada you would recommend, or would you not recommend these types of ETF's?

Thank you.

Q: Hello - I am an income investor. My view has been to construct my portfolio with companies that pay growing dividends as a way to offset inflation. With BCE’s announcement of reduced expected dividend growth in the future I am considering shifting that portion of my portfolio somewhere else. Can you please provide the stated expected ranges of dividend growth (as a %) of these companies? Please take all the credits you wish. Thank you

Q: I have a RESP for 3 grandchildren under the age of 11.
Would you please suggest 3 or 4 stocks to add or swap with any in the above group. Would prefer a bit more growth. Thank you

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
GVP is up 20% today on very high volume...so something has occurred...why do you think? Your assessments are always helpful! Thank you!

Q: In the answer you recently provided - where would the above companies fit in the rankings?

Q: Could you please tell me if I am interpreting this correctly. Disney said it expects Disney+ net adds of between 5.5 million and 6 million in Q2. But per their earnings call, “domestic net adds are expected to be in the 7.5 million range, driven by charter entitlements, net of cannibalization”. Does that mean they are gaining 7.5 million charter subs but losing 1.5 million paying subs to hit the 6 million? From what I understand the charter subs are getting Disney+ for free, and Disney is getting free advertising in exchange. So ARPU might go up due to price increases, but won’t overall revenue go down as fewer paying subs? Or do you think Disney will estimate the benefit of the free advertising, and then charge that amount to advertising and give the credit to Disney+ revenue? Thanks for you help.

Q: I just finished rebalancing in my TFSA and would like to take the extra dollars generated and invest in a conservative growth company for a 3 yo 5 year term. Please rank the names provided including any Canadian favourites of your own.
Much appreciated. ram
