Investment Q&A

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

Q: I may have missed a few, but pretty sure I've made every mistake trading in the stock market, although thanks to 5i I've done quite well over the years. Prehaps my biggest mistake is holding on to loosers too long and taking big hits. Recently I've promised myself to sell when I'm down 25%. So, I'm now down 25 or more % on these 4 companies but dont want to sell. What says you?

Q: With the apparent impending credit tightening (particularly in the U.S.). It seems to me that this presents a great opportunity for alternative lenders to attract new business at better margins. What do you think? What "push back" do you have here other than the fact that these company's own access to capital may be constrained themselves. I have mentioned 2 companies above here, but feel free to comment on others if you have any advice on other opportunities. Thanks

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

I have had ENGH for awhile and while having the dividend has been nice the performance over the last bit has been flat. What are potential replacements for it, regardless of sector.

Thanks.

Q: Looking for some suggesting for a quality consumer cyclical company in Canada or US. Maybe a growth company or two and an established company with great financial metrics but not growing as much.

Look forward to your suggestions. My time frame is irrelevant - just want good co’s

Q: A general question.
What happens if shareholders don't vote in the annual meeting's voting ballot that we receive from companies in our mail?
Mostly it's about board elections, approving executive pays, approving the auditing company and a few other shareholder proposals that we are not fully aware of and it consumes quiet a bit of our time on voting as sometimes there are 15 or more questions.
If we don't submit our vote is it considered as voted as per management recommendations or management gets to vote on our behalf or its considered abstain ?
