Investment Q&A

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

Q: When I look at the last 10 years of Cineplex data, I see a plodding yearly price increase without any particularly exciting price swings, a continuous series of modest quarterly profits with few exceptions, a series of fairly regular dividend increases - in a word DULL!

Do you think that they'll continue to be similarly dull? Can you point me to 4 or 5 companies that might be similarly dull over the next 3 to 5 years? I could use some dull (other than financials, where I'm a bit over-weight) to add to my portfolio.

Thanks.

Q: I have both CGX and DIS in the consumer space, and although I have done well on both I am concerned these may be too reliant on the same movie-going public. My other consumer names are CTC.A and CCL.B. Do you agree I am too concentrated, would you recommend selling CGX and diversifying into a different part of the consumer space, and if so, what do you suggest?

Q: I just saw Star Wars on its 3rd weekend . I paid $19.00 each for 4 IMAX tickets , plus concessions and there was barely an empty seat in the house . Given that, I find the almost 10% decline from $52 baffling. Is this a case of the hype baked in well in advance? Hits are never guaranteed so is it possible we will still see a Star Wars bump for CGX?

Q: I am helping my mom invest for her TFSA. Currently she holds equal weights of a perpetual Brookfield preferred, Altagas (ALA), ZEB, and WSP. She has enough cash to invest in 3-4 more positions. I want to add relatively conservative dividend stocks with some growth potential. I was thinking of CGX as one of them but am not sure if it is overvalued. what would you suggest for 3-4 stocks?
