Investment Q&A

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

Q: I'm looking for a new play in the materials/resource sector and SJ seems to be viewed positively both at 5i and others. However, I see it has traded sideways since mid-2015, and EPS dropped to 1.98 in 2018 from 2.42 a year earlier.

What is the reason for sideways trading and drop in EPS? Are they behind the company?
What are the short and long term catalysts for SJ?
I see its free cash flow is variable from year to year, what accounts for this?
I'm thinking of moving my position in MX to SJ.

Q: Good morning 5i,
TFII is one of the few growth stocks which has grown for me recently. I have about one percent too high a weighting in the industrial sector and I would like to buy Boyd Group. i am therefore thinking of selling TFII. I figure it may not go too much after the good news announced yesterday and it might be a good time to take a profit. Or, would I be better to hold it and find another way to get the money to buy Boyd?
thanks

Q: (This Question is not private; for some reason all my questions seem to be popping up as private even when I select public).

This Cannabis company trades at less than one times projected revenue for 2019 and I bought it last week because that sounds cheap. I have no idea how to evaluate these companies. This company operates mostly in the US. Any guidelines that you can offer?

Q: I've been a longtime holder of GUD but have become somewhat frustrated at the lack of growth. I'm wondering what your thoughts are about splitting my Knight holdings and placing them in HRX and HLS. Is there a decent risk/reward scenario here? Both companies are near 52 week highs but seem to be somewhat under reported.
Thank you for a fantastic service!
Mike
