Investment Q&A

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

Q: I am a long time holder of FC and it has been fine for income but the stock is down this year and virtually hasn't moved in seven years. I was considering a switch to Atrium for a similar dividend and a slow but steadily increasing share price. Your thoughts?

Thanks!

Kim

Q: Currently, I am down over 50% on PEY. I don't really want to sell at the bottom but am concerned about the sustainability of the dividend. I don't necessarily need the dividend, so would it be a good move right now to replace PEY with BIR?

Q: What do you think of an investment in Volkswagen? It seems to be recovering nicely since it's emission scandal. I'm interested in it because of their research into self-driving cars, battery technology and interest in cryptocurrency (IOTA). It seems like a forward looking company with growth potential.

Q: I would appreciate your opinion of the value, or lack thereof, that the shares of Atlassian Corporation (TEAM) might currently offer? I'm seeking investments that might reasonably be able to provide me with a 10% or better, total return over the next 12 months.

Regardless of your opinion of Atlassian; any suggestions you might have for other firms which one might reasonably be able to expect a 10% total return or better from, over the coming year, would also be welcome.

Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas! Cheers and thank you!

Q: What do you make of the take-up on the ALC tender offer? I recognize that there were severe tax disadvantages involved but in a TFSA, RESP, RRIF, RRSP one would not care. 25% take up was even less than I expected. During 2017 there have been 2 dividend increases and the tender offer. Do you think they might be signaling improved operating performance?
Also, with respect to Bob Rose's question regarding the strategic review of ADN, it came to naught. Please refer to the Q1 2016 report of May 9, 2016.

Q: Hi Team,

My U.S account is extremely heavy in the Tech sector and it’s time to scale back a couple of names to properly diversify. After making significant money on the listed names what do you suggest me dropping?

Thx

Q: Good morning Peter and company,

In his will, for his wife's benefits, Warren Buffett has instructed the trustee to put 10% of the money in short-term government bonds and 90% in a very low-cost S&P 500 index fund such as Vanguard’s.

Would that be a good practice for all retired individuals living off their stock portfolios by withdrawing 4% annually, if they are prepared to live with the market's fluctuations?

Bond values have nowhere to go but down as central banks raise interest rates. Would 10% cash be better than 10% bonds today?

Thank you for your considerate answers to my questions.
