Q: Hello 5i
TD Canada Trust has a net operating cash flow of -31,114,000 $. Its free cash flow is -33,078.000 $. The total dividends paid is 8,298,000 $. The total liability is 1,844,917,000$. Are we in trouble? I would tend to keep it if dividends hold, otherwise look for something else. I also have BNS and it seems to be recovering as is TD. As you keep advising, best policy is do nothing. Does this still hold for these? I have a ten year + time frame and am a value investor at 76 years young and do not now need ready cash.

  • View CVO Profile
  • View Questions on CVO

Q: CVO is down more than 16% so far today, why?

What is your opinion of this company's prospects over the next 1 to 3 years? Reflecting on your most recent comments last month, how has your opinion changed ?

Does the management of this company and its track record to date support it being "shareholder friendly"?

Is this the classic "falling knife" story?

Do you consider it under valued or fairly valued?

What other Canadian companies in this sector would you consider to be under valued or fairly valued today?

Please feel free to add any additional comments worthy of consideration.

Q: What are your thoughts regarding lingering inflation and the market?

There seems to be heightened conversations around a recession. Is it best to continue to pick away at stocks even though we are close to all time market highs?
