Q: Hello Peter & Ryan,

After 2 incredibly gut wrenching months on the markets and the so-called repricing of equities, today the markets were cheering and have pushed indexes on both sides of the border into what appears like a 'relief' rally>
My question is a 2 part question:.

1. I would really like your insights into what were market participants betting on today and perhaps going forward. Is this possibly a "head fake" setting the market up for another wild journey or do you think that the market believes that concerns around: (a) interest rates (do not have much further to go) and, (b) that the US and China might be able to agree on a truth of sorts this weekend.

2. If the above concerns (question 1) become reality in the next month or so, what is your advice to members? What should investors chip away at in order to perhaps recover losses and defend their positions. I realize this a very broad question, but would appreciate your top 6 defensive picks, regardless of asset classes, that will boost our portfolios in the next 3 to 5 years.

Thank you very and much appreciate your opinion,
Joseph

Q: Do you know this company and do you have any idea when it will go public?

Q: Good morning Peter & Team,
Part of GM's rationale (so they say) for closing the Oshawa plant and others is to focus on 'autonomous' vehicles that, according to a GM spokesperson, "don't hit each other". How will this affect the core business of Boyd in the medium and long term? Thanks to 5i, I have some fabulous gains on this stock and am wondering if and when I should take some profits. (BYD.UN is 2.55% of our overall portfolio).
Thanks as always for your guidance.

Q: Do you think it is likely that there will be a cut or do you think that the dividend is safe?
Thanks,
Philip

Q: Hi there, which of the 2 names would you prefer in the financial space? Which would do you consider to be less risky of the 2? Thanks!

Q: Which would you prefer? I'm looking for stability and growth over yield and if BX, is it best held in an RSP for tax treatment? Thank you.

Q: Appreciate it's a very volatile equity & time. Any news that would account for > 5% hike yesterday?

Q: May I have your opinions on this company please

Q: I'm considering tax loss for FB and returning to it in a month.

It looks like its price is stabilizing now, but I imagine my crystal ball is working as well as anyone elses.

I'm a big fan of the stock but can't see how it can overcome such steady bad press.

Your thoughts please.

Thanks for all your support.

Update; I no longer have a loss on it.

Mark

Q: Which stocks are undervalue or cheap as of today?.

Q: Your outlook on this stock please

Q: I have a Tax Free Saving Account government regulation question. In January 2019, I contribute $6,000.00 dollars, the new possible limit per year. Then, in January 2019, I transfer in-kind from regular account to my TFSA a stock worth $6,000.00 dollars. Now, can I buy another stock in the TFSA with the $6,000.00 dollars in cash in the account?

Q: Your comment on earnings would be appreciated.

Q: Which ETF ex North America, would you recommend for global exposure?

Q: I bought BCE two or three years ago and watched its value peak about 3 times before settling back down now to levels pretty much where I bought it. In the meantime, I've had the benefit of a good dividend.

When I look at the 3 year chart, it is beginning to look encouraging again. so I was thinking that maybe some folks are buying into the telecoms because they like the stability offered in an economic downturn. I was about ready to sell and look for something with a bit more growth. Maybe I should hang on?

Would you recommend anything else with a similar dividend and stability in this economic environment?

Q: Analysts have recently become quite positive about AEZS. Morningstars sees 38 per cent upside to fair value; Thomson Reuters rates is a 10/10 with a trailing P/E of 5.7 with a net margin of 34 per cent. Has your opinion changed since your last reply?

Thank you.

Q: SIS and Toy are continuously going down is there any other reason than tax sell,Are they good buys today?. Or something wrong with them?.
