Investment Q&A

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

Q: We have 4 positions in SU; content to wait for the cumulative effect of cash flow and buybacks. There has been other advise given to us, to switch over to CNQ.
We have little knowledge of CNQ and such a move would require research. I don't want to do this homework, if it's a marginal idea to begin with.
Your help would be appreciated.

Q: Hi,

I have a position in ROKU, which is currently trading a dollar or two below my cost. My time horizon is roughly 3 years plus. The stock has taken a beating since it announced its quarterly results earlier this month, which I thought were quite good. May I please get your thoughts.

Thanks,

Q: Does the Affirm/Amazon arrangement have any implications for GSY. I wonder if you could explain in a bit more detail the current relationship between GSY and Affirm, and add some colour to what the future might hold for these relationships.

Q: Hi,
What are your favourite criteria to evaluate a company? for example, PE ratio, quick ratio, etc.
Also, could you rank your criteria by most important to least important?

Thank you!

Q: I have enjoyed the ride up in the markets over the last year but am now looking to shift a chunk of dollars out of what has been labeled the Cathie Woods stocks. And potentially give up some upside potential for income.

With that in mind I am looking for high dividends with consistent payouts.

Looking at these etfs as a GROUP would they meet this criterion? ie payouts remain relatively stable if the market dips as some are predicting right now.

A drop in share price could be tolerated but the prospect of a significant decrease in the monthly dividend would not.

I guess this is a risk reward kind of question.

THANKS for any guidance you can provide.

Q: Payment for order flow . Is such practice is permitted in Canada?
What happens if an order is directed for US stocks or US based foreign depository? Is PFOF permitted in US stock exchanges.
Thanks. Miroslaw

Q: Can you explain to me how Option 2 is supposed to work for the IPL takeover. Option 2 is 0.25 shares of BIPC subject to proration. In the Aug. 20 group, 90% of the IPL shares were converted to BIPC for those who chose Option 2. What happens to the remaining 10%? Are they paid the equivalent of 0.25 of a BIPC, or $20/share or ?? Since I received only $18.68 for my 10% I am thinking that I did not get 0.25 BIPC equivalent. Thanks. Feel free to answer privately if you prefer.
