Q: Hello,

There hasn't been a question on this company since 2021 - can I get your updated opinion of it? They just reported earnings this week and beat EPS estimates.

For a portfolio light on industrials, would you recommend it? If not, can you list a few industrials that you consider better - US or CDN.

Thank you,

Q: Hello,

As a whole, I own too many positions and am looking to concentrate my portfolio. I own positions in both TFII and CJT that are in the same industrial transportation sector. I have a larger position in TFII, which has done well while my smaller position in CJT has slumped.

If you had to sell one of these, which would you choose? Or are they different enough to keep both? What do you think of CJT, down about 30% in the past year?

Thanks,

Q: Retired investor with a long term view. I will need to take some money from that account for living expenses. Holding both stocks sitting at a 4% weighting in a taxable account with 180-300% profit. Industrials are my largest holdings. I would like to take one down to 3% and reap some profit on the way. Which would you sell first or would you scrape a little bit of both?
Thank you for your invaluable service.

Q: Good morning,

A follow-up question to Angus’ question from yesterday about the P/E and PEG of these three companies…

As I understand the PEG ratio, a PEG under 1 suggests the stock is undervalued for its expected level of growth and over 1 suggests overvalued. So would you interpret these three PEG ratios that WSP is currently overvalued? If you were adding to these three, all other things being equal, would you be least likely to add to WSP, adding to the other two first as they have a a better current value?

Thank you for your insights in these early learning days of my investing journey…

Doris

Q: I hold the listed equities/ ETF in my 14 year old grandson's RESP account. Given thee current environment what changes would you make in preparation for the next 4 years? I consider HFR is cash available.

Woule you consider adding some US listings for diversification? Given some current thinking regarding the US dollar would it be wiser to add Cdn listed ETFs of US companies? . What would be the tax implications of adding US listed companies that do not pay a dividend? Any paperwork?

Thanks very much. Take whatever credits are needed.

are there any stocks in the account that you would replace?,

Q: I liked the answer you gave to one of the members today on how to deal with volatility. Buy good companies run by good people at attractive valuations and hold for the long term. My question is:
What Canadian companies would you consider best fit the bill today? If you can give me 10 companies that would be super helpful.

Q: Can you recommend 5 top value Canadian and 5 USA companies that have solid long-term businesses, with great management, a good P/E and have no debt or very low debt. Would really like to find a solid core of buy and hold names in any sector. It would appear to me that SLF would be one good choice.
Thanks!
