Investment Q&A

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

Q: I know that utility and pipeline companies usually have higher than normal debt levels but would any of these cause you concern? A quick comment on each company would be appreciated and whether you would buy, hold or sell. Thank you!

Q: CALF (81 %) has led IWO (50 %) and IJT (59 %) in 5-yr returns, yet has fallen behind the other 2 in 1-yr returns (about 11 % vs 30+ %). Can you please provide a reason for that and also comment on which might do better in the next few years? Thank you.

Q: I'm planning on purchasing some additional US investments in my RRSP. I already own QQQ, which represents approximately 38% of my US holdings. I was planning on dividing the remaining 62% between SPY and VTI. I'm described as a growth investor with a 5-7 time horizon before possibly beginning withdrawals. May I get your thoughts on this division? Should I consider cutting back on QQQ to redistribute to the other two? The US represents 45% of my overall RRSP holdings.

Q: Team, I have holdings in all three and although I have done great with BDX over the years, it seems to be struggling. I am thinking of selling but would like your comments on increasing my holdings in SYK and ISRG or would you provide insights another option. All three stocks are in my non registered account.
By the way, because of your insights on AMED of a few years ago, I sold the stock and purchased GOOG.............it was a great move
I have whittled down my holdings to 15 stocks and want to be careful adding more

Q: Good Morning

With the banks reporting next week, I have read it may not be so much about actual results but more about future guidance.

Do you have thoughts on which banks(s) will have results that you and/or the market view positively and which ones will be viewed negatively.

Thank you

Ian

Q: I have a very novice question. When people say the market is "overvalued" or "high" how do we know that? Do we look at the P/E Ratio?

Can you provide a bit of insight on this? Thanks.

Q: Would you happen to know about a Canadian ETF that tracks the Canadian stock market minus gold, and another that does the same but minus all mining?

Q: Hi there yesterday you were answering about buying BCE after a rate cut. You said many are “expecting” it. Are you?

You said awhile back you were not expecting it but has your stance changed?

Might be better to do a Sell for losses now in an unregistered account then wait and buy back after the cut? I’m a long time holder and believer but getting nervous!

Ok thanks
