Investment Q&A

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

Q: Two part question, deduct as necessary. Canadian Portfolio slightly tilted towards growth and not needing funds for long time. Looking to add one Industrial name to compliment WSP and PEO (if considered an industrial). Was thinking maybe NFI but would be interested in any other suggestions.

Also looking to add a tech name to compliment KXS, and OTEX. Having a hard time finding something different that could be a core holding for long term, only criteria would be that i am not interested in PHO.

Q: Is it a good time to buy WSP. It seems to me that if SNC ends up being convicted, and then banned from Federal government contracts, that WSP (also HQ in Montreal) could be a big beneficiary with lots of new business. Why does the media only mention possible job losses for SNC, wouldn't WSP just hire many of those people anyway?

Q: Hi 5i, I own CSU,COV,KXS, PLC (-3%), and PHO (-12%), however overall I'm 30% up (thank you), I have an extra 11K to add to my TFSA, would you recommend 1 or 2 stocks to complement my tfsa holdings. I'm 3 years away from retirement, medium risk. Would you get rid of any of my holdings?
thank you

Q: In my portfolio I have following Canadian equities: AQN (4.9%), BCE (4.78%), BNS (4.64%), WXM (4.5%), SIS (3.8%), BEP (2.68%), MG (2.29%), KXS (2.03%), PBH (1.94%), MX (1.92%), COV (1.87%), TSGI (1.76%).

I have a full positions worth of cash I would like to add to my Canadian content and was wondering on your thoughts as to adding to one new stock (ATD.B, WSP, CCL.B, other suggestion), 2 half positions, or adding to my existing positions.

I have a 20 year time frame and comfortable with some risk.
Thank you.

Q: I mainly follow the balanced portfolio I'm looking to add a industrial and a healthcare stock. I have a full position in NFI, CAE and MG. I have full positions in SIS(I have considered it a healthcare company rather than a industrial) and UNH(in the US). I also have a tiny position in COV and a small 2% position in GUD. Would you have more confidence in WSP or TFII? What other healthcare stock would you add? I'm not a high risk investor but understand all stocks have a risk. I have 10+ years. Thank you for your advice I have gained many investment insights.

Q: I recently added a 1/2 position of InterRent to my TFSA. In your opinion could I expect more growth from WSP? For industrials I also hold a 4% position in SIS in the same account. I like to hold for 3+ years barring unfavorable fundamental changes. Looking forward to your thoughts.

Q: Over the past 2 years I have slowly adjusted my portfolio to be more growth (overall return) focused as opposed to heavily dividend focused. I am considering selling EIF and purchasing WSP. WSP is a larger company with a higher valuation which I'd be okay with as long as I'm paying for a better company with higher growth prospects. Your thoughts, please.
