Investment Q&A

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

Q: Thanks for this great service. In your answer to Jeff on November 30 you indicate that "6 shares of CSU would probably be the best 'small' amount of shares, to get 11 Topicus shares" which I guess is true for a conversion of 1.8598 and no partial shares. Would it not be better to have 7 CSU and get an extra 2 Topicus? I calculate you would get the following: 6=11, 7=13, 14=26, 21=39 .etc. Sorry if I have missed something but I went away thinking of multiples of 6 but 7 may be better.

Q: I hold the above companies in my TFSA and they represent my Tech holdings. I am getting a little overweight in my tech sector and am wondering if any of my holdings are in essence duplications. If so could you recommend which ones to sell.
I have a list of buys, including CAE, TFII, XBC, GOOS, and would redeploy the capital plus some of my cash to these positions. Of my potential buys in what order would you see as the best opportunities.

Q: I need to raise some cash. Could you recommend which 6 of the above list you would sell first. Keeping in mind that I would be rebuying some of those as cash again becomes available.
Thanks for your advice.

Q: Could you rank these companies in order of preference for future performance? Investing a lump sum gradually over the next 6 to 12 months and I have zero tech exposure right now.

Thanks,
Jason

Q: Hi. My daughter is looking to add a US tech stock to a portfolio that follows your balanced portfolio with some added US stocks and International ETFs. She currently owns 4 tech stocks; CSU, LSPD, KXS and NVDA. She is 21 yo and looking for long term growth. We are wondering if U is a better addition than TEAM (I am already following TEAM as I own it, but would consider selling it for a better company as I like to limit myself to following about 35 stocks). Any better suggestions? TTD? We both already own VEEV (under healthcare).

Q: Could you please rank above Tech stocks in order of preference that you would purchase or hold right now. I have all except CRWD and U, but they seem to be coming up in your lists more frequently.

Q: You have, in the past, listed about ten companies (including CSU, X, KXS, CAE, BYD, ENB, ADW) that you felt had a unique opportunity to flourish under these special circumstances.
Asking the same question today, what would your updated list look like?

Q: Have some money in a RRSP to invest and committed to continue investing in Constellation Software.

With the upcoming spin-off, Topicus, should I buy Constellation after the dividend/spinoff, or are we better off buying more of Topicus because it's essentially an earlier and smaller version of Constellation which means it's more likely to grow faster on a percentage basis.

Also are there any concerns with it being primarily in Europe versus Constellation which is much more diversified between geographies?
