Q: What are the best high quality ideas to look at in the coal space currently. It seems that usage of coal will continue to rise internationally despite the direction being taken in North America.

Q: Hi Gang
What is the small company that was spun off of constillation
Thanks Mike B

Q: I have seen many different comments about gold seasonality. What is your take on that and what months might be included? Many thanks.

Q: Are there any small cap names on your radar that have been growing their top line and profits every year that appear to have a long runway of growth ahead of them -or any that you're excited about?
Along with that are there any that stand out to you that would begin to garner attention from bigger players in the coming years if they continue to grow stay on track? I Would like to a few ideas for a long term hold if the companies can continue to execute.

Thanks very much

Q: Following up on my previous question, could you please rank CEG, NPI and CSIQ with the others you mentioned before?

“ I am contemplating replacing Fortis with a greener utility. I already own BEP. What are your best suggestions please in Canada and the US and their relative risk rankings.

Answer:
We do like FTS; for other suggestions, we would note: PPL, FE, SO, DTE, H, CU. We would rank these: NEE, SO, H, DTE, FE, CU, PPL”

Thank you again, Michael

Q: realizing these companies are much different from each other. Would you recommend all three. If yes, Pls indicate by rank, which ones might show the greatest appreciation over the next 2 yrs.

Q: Straight up, disregarding any metrics, which of these two stocks would have the mostvupside in the short term, like a one year time horizon, Thanks?

Q: Roku just dropped 20% today.
. This causes me to be at a loss of 35% ($1750).

My ROLU stake in my RRSP is now 4%

Should I sell my winning stocks and buy the ROKU dip. I was thinking to invest $3100 in Roku so that average loss would go to 17.5%..

Or should just sell Roku at this point and move.on?

Q: You seem to like LMN. Do you see them hopefully duplicating what Constellation has achieved. A good long term hold. Put away for a few years and continue to add to. ?Looks good. RAK

Q: Do you think it would be a good idea to buy tsx stocks that pay us dividends in a us rrsp so that the dividends aren’t converted to Canadian dollars?

Q: HI folks
Sadly, I am down on all of these somewhere between 60 to 95%!!! They mostly but not all started out as somewhat small positions 2 to 4 years ago! I have time to wait longer but: 1)are there any that are absolute failures and therefore should be sold. 2) Would you please rate the selIs from 1 to 10 ..10 being the absolute SELL. 3)How many years should I give these? (tough to answer but just a guess). I will not get much at all for any of them! Please take as many credits as you see fit.
Much Thanks and happy Family weekend

Q: How would you rank these junior gold developers (by assigning them each a number) in terms of their potential upside and being worth the risk of a small portfolio position:

PPTA, PRB, LUM, TLG, ITH, MAU, FF, CKG, LGD, ITR

Do any of them stand out as being either much too speculative to recommend or exceptional opportunities? Thanks for any additional comments.

Q: Buy or Hold or Sell? With a few comments. Thanks. ram

Q: What are your top buys (3) right now if you were investing in a mix of growth, quality, and somewhat reasonable valuation? With your answer/explanation can you include fwd p/e or whatever relevant metrics vs peers?

Also, what's a quality stock or two you'd like to buy but would want to see come down a bit/something you'd be looking to pick up in a broad market selloff?

Q: Wanting to sell one of these to deploy cash to deploy elsewhere. Which of these two has the best pathway forward for a 2 to 3 year hold and which might you recommend to sell and why? Thank you.

Q: I've held this stock for the longest time and it keeps going down ? I'm now down 28 % ! I've recently heard that they might be cutting their dividend and I'm not sure that I should keep hanging on ? What say you, sell or hold ?

Q: So I've started to travel solo more (thank you divorce) and I've booked 2 different Airbnb at 2 different cities (Montreal, and Nashville). Both were excellently operated remotely and great value by a company named Sonder.

They appear to want to be a premier 5 star Airbnb chain. I saw the hotel run by them in Nashville and booked immediately- so they already have my consumer loyalty.

I looked them up and they're trading on the NASDAQ but at massive lows.

No one here has asked a question about this company, but it looks like a hold at $3 a share (from a high of $200...)

I am not an analyst- what are your thoughts on this company, future estimates for growth. I am guessing they are a victim of high finance rates hitting their profit margins - but then again,, who isn't.

Regards,
Jeff

Q: The 5i profile on Cipher Pharma lists only 5 employees - how accurate and current are such numbers? Also you dropped coverage on this stock in 2018 "until some visibility emerges." which now seems to be clear, would you consider recovering?

Q: A dividend account, BCE down 16,%, BIP.Un down 14.5%, BEPC down 23%, DOO down 23% as well. Also own BN and BAM. Brookfield entities are 17% of the portfolio.
Do I sell my losers, knowing they're suffering from higher interest rates or simply stay patient?
Do you see concentration risk ? How high would you let the Brookfield entities run? I think DOO is a good firm but it could go. Please deduct questions as you see fit. Thank you in advance. David
