Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hello,
I am looking at the equipment manufacturers and auto industry as possible directions for new investments. The above names are ones I have been considering but am interested in knowing what you think about heavy equipment versus automotive and within those categories, what you think might be the better choices.

Many thanks,
V

Q: Bionano Genomics has been giving mixed messages. Their field looks promising, yet the stock price keeps falling. Street consensus shows a strong buy. Should I hold or sell. Thanks for the excellent service and a ton of good advice.

Q: I currently have a 4% (total portfolio) position in ARKK in my TFSA. Down some 4.5%. Considering replacing it with equal positions in two other US techs, possibly PINS and NVDA. I already hold GOOG, CROWD, ADOBE, MSFT and AMZN.
1) Would you hold the course with ARKK?
2) If not, which two US techs would you replace it with today?

And on an unrelated topic, I own (and am exceedingly happy with) EGLX. Like GOOG, it is considered to be in the Communications sector. For my portfolio purposes, I would like to assign all or part of EGLX to consumer cyclical. Does this make sense?
Thanks.

Q: I have a considerable position in AQN and a small position in BEP.UN. In examing the one-year performance of the three companies I calculate that AQN's stock price is flat, BEP.UN is up about 40% and NPI is up about 45%. Would you recommend selling the laggard, AQN, and investing the proceeds into one or both of NPI and BEP.UN. Also is there a company in this sector that you would prefer over these three?
With appreciation,
Ed

Q: K92 Mining has a very successful gold mine in Papau New Guinea ! They expect to issue a detailed expansion of their next project in the second half of 2021 and hope to achieve ASC of less than $400 per ounce by 2024 with a doubling of production.
ABX just settled a dispute with the country and K92 responded positively. The company has no Debt and more than $60,000,000 in cash. The CEO has a successful history of buying out other miners in the past and is surveying the market for opportunities in other countries such as nearby Australia. Meanwhile the expansion is fully funded out of cash flow.
This stock has gone up on average at least 100% each year over the last five years.
My investment is for estate purposes and is a high percentage of my portfolio.
Comment?

Q: I have never been a fan of timing the commodity cycle. However, I am looking at taking positions in one or more of LUN, LIF and TECK.B. While TECK has been higher the other two are at new or near their all time highs. In your estimation, do these stocks (all company specific issues aside) just keep going higher while the global environment is positive? Can you please rank them on overall gains on the one hand and relative safety on the other? But do you think they will all just be pummeled (as per usual) during the next global recession and/or first signs of overcapacity? Thank-you.

Q: Is there a set/portfolio of ETFs you would recommend for a medium risk investor to ”set and forget” forever? What % allocation would you attribute to each? Timeframe would be for 25+ years.
