Investment Q&A

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

Q: CPX accounts for 2.31% and AQN represents 4.63% of my unregistered portfolio. I was thinking of switching AQN into CPX or rebalancing so that each would be equal. Would there be another dividend producing utility that you would prefer over these two. I already own BEP(2.81%), BIP(2.23%), SPB(1.74%)and F(1.56%). Perhaps putting some of the AQN into one of the latter four mentioned? I do like the nice dividend that CPX provides. I am retired and have a decent pension and my portfolio is geared to dividend income.

Q: I have the impression that among the large Canadian banks you still favour BNS. Looking at a 1-year chart comparison, I see that even the usual laggards, CIBC and Laurentian Bank, have been doing better than BNS. By sticking with BNS, do you anticipate better performance going forward? (I own it and have not been overly impressed - what is the rationale for hanging on to it?)

Q: I looked at the archived Q+A on MRS and see it's on a "short leash" in the growth fund.
Looking at the high level numbers, revenue is 141m but market cap is 44m? Seems like every other growth stock is the inverse of this. Would this not be a great take out candidate assuming someone does not own majority of shares? Even so, would seem to be a great take private candidate? What am I missing with this picture?

I am considering a small position as a flyer but wanted to hear your take one more time.

Many thanks.

Q: Expectations of sooner-than-expected rate increases have pushed short-term yields higher in recent days. If so, interest rates could be headed up faster than thought, with dismal consequences for stock prices and real estate speculators. Can you suggest a Canadian Bond EFT that would be suitable during this period of inflation? Cheers.

Q: I was recently employed by Tesla and have the option of RSU's or stock options with a 4 year vest - 1 year cliff. Options to RSU's are 3 to 1 multiple. Tesla is a bit different in that the number of shares/options are calculated near my hire date, thus my gains rely heavily on the stock going after my hire date.

Do you think after 4 years this stock will be up significantly (above $1600)? What do you think will happen over the next year? Thanks

Q: QFOR: Hard to get info (market cap, etc.) on Q4 Inc. I guess because it was just listed. Interesting niche focus with big name customers (Square, Netflix, Spotify, Mastercard, etc.). Please provide your take on this newly listed company and it's investability at this point with 21Q3 results to be released shortly [2021-11-10]. Thx!
