Investment Q&A

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

Q: Any idea why Telus shares can’t be owned by non-residents of Canada? My broker informed me that my T.TO shares will be converted to “Non-Canadian” shares which don’t trade. I can switch back to regular shares only when I want to sell them. I’ve never run into this before and have been non-resident >10 years.
I prefer Telus over BCE but should I just switch over to BCE?

Q: What are 5i’s thoughts and analysis on $CAD vs $USD?

The Financial Post article below highlights forecasts of 5% upside (loonie towards .80c usd). What do you expect? Time-frame, certainty in closing the gap, etc.

https://financialpost.com/executive/executive-summary/posthaste-why-the-canadian-dollar-isnt-done-yet

Would now/months from now be a good time to convert some $USD to $CAD (i.e. moving over US equity index/stocks in USD to the same holdings in $CAD).

Q: BNN's Lightspeed earnings headline featured the $100M loss without mentioning the adjusted loss is $15.6M and better than expected.. Not impressed with their negative recap.
The stock is down 13% at one pm - is this short selling or anxiety about the headlines? They doubled their sales and have a billion in the bank! I'm a buyer!

Q: I'm liking Information Services Corp. dividend and it seems their earnings look pretty good as well. I'm guessing not a huge growth potential, but wondering about thoughts of company in possible recession and dividend security.
VCM seems to be on a positive trend, thoughts on this company as a potential addition at this time.
Thanks

Q: I have held S&P Global for about a year and of course like the recent market this stock is lagging. I would like to hold on but I understand the recent earnings were not stellar. Your comments on the recent quarter as well as your overall thoughts on this holding would be much appreciated. I would like to hold for the long term. Thank You.
