Investment Q&A

Q: Everyone, the three have been under pressure for three to six months. Lower highs and lower lows. Also, volumes have been higher than average. The three companies are cut from the same cloth but AI has crept into the equation and raised some doubt going forward. Good companies, with good staff, with good processes will always win out in the end. The weak shares are changing hands, that’s great, and the rest of us will wait this short term trend and buy more sometime soon. Nothing really has changed except market sentiment. Just wait till after their next reports for real facts. Take care. My thoughts. Clayton

Q: We have a full position in CSU after dollar cost averaging down, unfortunately at higher prices. Just wondering with the current downtrend if we should cut our losses. Even though we're recently retired, we have a longer term perspective when investing. Just wondering though if there's other names in the same sector with greater potential?
Thanks once again for your great investment service... Tom

Q: I have all three of these with large unrealized gains and I understand the reason for the significant stock adjustment over the past few months, is it time to move on? What has to happen to get the companies back in favour?

Q: I see Longpoint has started a 2X leveraged EFT specific to CSU. Can you explain how this ETF works, and where it might be appropriate in ones portfolio.
Also being a new Etf will significant conributiona / withdrawals have any effect on the price of CSU regular shares.
Thanks John

Q: Good afternoon 5i
You just replied to a a question regarding lmn or csu, saying that you thought buyers would be rewarded at the current price. I want to put pretty reliable but also growth stocks in my tfsa. Today would you have a preference amongst these three for buying today? Just for context, i have a full position in csu and half in the otjer two

Q: Good Day,

With the end of the year approaching and the US poking the tarriff bear again (pun... intended?), do you see more selling/profit taking coming in the end of the year?

It seems many names have either been hit by these latest developments, have unsubstantiated short report attacks, or have no news declines. What are some of your favourite names right now that have solid outlooks/execution and some real potential for strong recovery? Say 10 names, mix of Canada and US with attractive entry prices?

Secondly, what would be your main buy targets likely to see tax loss selling? What would be an attractive entry price for them?

No need for megacap names, I'm well represented there.

Thanks!

James

Q: Good morning Peter and Team,

Even with its recent decline, but as long-term holders, CSU is our top allocation with 11.53%. I also note that National Bank has revised its rating to “Sector Perform” from “Sector Outperform”.

If this was YOUR account, would you trim CSU? (Portfolio Analytics suggests that our Technology allocation should be 15%, but it’s presently at 18.08%).

Thanks as always for your assistance.

Q: Is recent question I asked was only partially answered. The question was asked by Tim on Oct 8. Here is your response:
Our top five for a growth investor with a long-term timeframe would be: SHOP ($220 if possible), BN ($91-$93), TRI ($190 to $200), CSU ($3800), TD ($105 to $110) /BNS ($85).

The part of the question not answered was whether these large cap stocks would be suitable for a tfsa. I have been using small caps mostly, but now am wanting to get more conservative. Thanks very much

Q: I noticed that in a recent question about the five best large cap stocks, CSU is in the lineup. Does that mean that all of your concerns about this company have been eased? Also, as I am growing more conservative in my tfsa I am wondering whether you would see all or some of these companies, despite being large cap, therefore less growth, as good candidates for a tfsa?
Thanks for the great service

Q: Hi Team,
I'm considering selling CSU and TRI for capital loss. Do you see these two moving up significantly in the 30 day waiting period? Would you re-buy both after 30 days or move the funds elsewhere?
Thanks

Q: You mentioned CSU year end tax selling as probable. Do you feel the same on TOI & LMN? How do you like these as a current discounted purchase? Especially if you were to leave as a 10 year hold.

Q: My daughter has the above investments in her regular account. She has now opened a TFSA and plans to contribute regularly. The horizon is long (money not needed for 10-20 years). Her portfolio is not very well balanced. Could you offer advice on 5-8 best stocks (Canadian or available on the NEO exchange) that would be promising investments whilst improving sectorial balance?
