Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi, there is an article on Motley Fool today that lists these 3 stocks as forever hold (especially on recent pullbacks) for value, growth and dividend growth. What is your take on this? I have 30+ years and use any drips available. I already own bns as well. Do you know if anything that presents major issues or headwinds for them?

Thanks

Q: Your opinion on CNR please. do you view this dip as a buying opportunity?

would you consider buying this dip in the S&P500 and TSX with the 10% cash i have? or should i invest 5% right now and 5% at a later stage?

i understand there are a lot of moving parts to this question, but im looking forward to your opinion.

Q: Hello
My question is related to the vastly discounted price that Canadian oil companies are able to achieve for their product, with many analysts indicating they need to get it to either or both coasts so it can be sold for a better price. I would think that the rail companies are probably getting some of the oil to the coasts, and have to potential to move greater volumes even if more costly than pipelines. Are CNR or CP in the position to benefit form this need to move the oil to 'tide water'?
Thanks,
Brian

Q: Hi there,

I am looking to add a company in transportation to my portfolio. On all metrics TFII seems cheaper on a valuation basis than the others. Any reasons you would prefer my other options and why?

Q: You recently answered another question in the following words.
you may be best served by a well-diversified conservative (or even balanced) portfolio. For your equity component (what ever allocation you decide) stay focused on large-cap dividend payers and weight defensive sectors generously.

If I want to stay with Canadian stocks only, please name your top 10 stocks that would fit this bill.

Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

In our combined portfolio, we hold the following Industrials: BAD, EIF, KBL, NFI, SIS, and STN. In this group, we're frustrated with EIF and are just breaking when considering its healthy dividend. I like your idea of "forever" stocks and note that CNR is your pick in this sector. My questions are: Given that all of the above (with the exception of EIF) are performing well, would you be OK with replacing EIF with CNR, or perhaps you have a better suggestion? Are there too many Industrials in our portfolio and is it time to exit one or more of the group?

As always, your advice is greatly appreciated and valued.

Q: Trying to add to my knowledge base with your superb guidance .... so this is a follow up to my earlier question where I asked if CN and CP were oversold; but I neglected to mention that I had been looking at the W% and the RSI for both companies. To my untrained eye, they appeared to be oversold or close to being oversold. Would you please take a look at these parameters and let me know what you think.

Thanks again.
