Investment Q&A

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

Q: Seems to me with the downward spiral of big box stores and the rise of internet shopping at places like Amazon, doesn't it seem logical that UPS should benefit long term from this trend? How do you feel about this particular stock and do you have any other favourites in the sector?

Thanks,
Charlie

Q: I have been into and out of RUF a couple of times but do not own it right now.
Currently I like the 6.7% yield and am thinking that it is well priced with the drop in share prices. But with the new equity offering just announced, I am wondering if I should wait in the expectation of further price declines or if this would be a good buying opportunity.

What do you think? Are there other REITs that you would rank significantly highter than RUF?

Thanks.

Q: Hello Peter and company,
Do you think that the energy stocks (CPG, VET, etc) will come under pressure in December as institutional investors will try to get rid off them so that their year-end statements look good? Or this type of selling has been done already?

Q: I am looking at losers in my US portfolio for tax loss selling. Considering building cash to buy Cal-Maine Foods, Visa and Pepsico. Which of the following stocks would you consider candidates, out of Polaris, Sodastream and Bed Bath & Beyond? The stocks all seem to have good fundamentals especially BBBY (as you remarked in an earlier question from January 2014). Would you endorse the switch?

Q: I am retired and am mainly looking for income and some growth. I own TRP, ALA, IPL and PPL. I am down on ALA, IPL and PPL. I am thinking of selling IPL and PPL for a capital loss to offset some gains and replace them with ENB. While the dividend will be lower with ENB, I am thinking it will have more overall growth, including dividend growth. Thoughts ?
