Investment Q&A

Q: Hi, you had a comment on AT&T late July and I was wondering, with recent weakness, what the fundamentals look like for this company now. Do you see long term value here? If you think this is a stock with limited prospects going forward, do you have another US income stock (any sector) that might make for a better replacement? Many thanks. Michael

Q: what is the trading symbol for the spin-off co. from altars

Q: I bought PATK not very long ago because I like the mgmt, they have a good history of compounding capital, and they have made some nice acquisitions, Also good fundamentals. However my timing was pretty bad and its dropped 25% since then due to trade war concerns, US economy concerns and the motorhome/rv sector getting beaten up since people don't buy recreational vehicles if the economy struggles. I planned on holding through at least this quarter to see if good earnings could set it above the sector headwinds. It reported great earnings and beat on many metrics, popped 6% this morning, now oddly is down 3%. That concerns me. Should I get out of PATK, do you think the head winds will be too much for this sector? So far its looking like no matter how positive things are with the company, the sector will just beat PATK down with the rest of the RV stocks.

Q: Dear 5i,

Is it time to move on or this dog has real potential? Don't mind keeping it for another 2-3 years if it is actually going to deliver. It is a small position but I don't want to lose more than what I have already (down 72%) with the 14% decline today.

Thank You for the help!

Q: LLG along with NMX and ECS have been dropping like a rock for the last few months. What is you take on these mining stocks? My understanding is that lithium ion batteries require graphite, lithium and cobalt. Demand should be increasing, put prices for the commodities seem to be weak. Any insights would be appreciated.

Q: Would now be a good time to buy bank preferred shares?

Q: After a correction like we’ve seen the last week, where do you see as the best place to put money? I didn’t sell anything during the pullback. I have a long time to wait, and am ok with risk. Would you recommend long term value stocks (such as dividend aristocrats, banks, utilities etc.) or more fluctuating stocks (such as tech, pot, faang etc)? Where do you see the better bounce back? I use all available drips.

Q: can you comment on the result of NVCR is it a good buy on this level

Q: I have held Goldcorp for several years. After the recent quarter is there a reason to continue holding or just throw n the towel. Thanks as always , Frank

Q: TMX Group looks pretty attractive on a few valuation metrics and its balance sheet looks pretty strong as well. How quickly can a poor market influence TMX's eps expectations? Are its earnings pretty much insulated from a poor market, or can a poor market knock down its earnings expectations, 10%, 20%, 30%??

Thanks.

Q: Hi, wrt Q&A on 'Asked by Wes on October 25, 2018', can you pls add this stock to your db/coverage. I did a 'Company' search and it was not in the db. I'd like to see/review their 'key ratios' that you provide.
Further, they had continued good growth in their 3rd quarter results ie Record Revenue and Net Income, can you comment further on this please? Similar results were seen for the 1st and 2nd quarters as well but the stock has lost a bit of ground in the last 1-3 months. ...though still up on the year. Could just be profit taking?
Would it be ideal to take an initial 1/3 position in this stock at this time? Or does it just warrant a watch during the current (market) downtrend?

Thanks,
Steve

Q: I sold Trevali mining and other speculative companies in my TFSA like . Blackbird energy. Sold some of my Gold cos as well.

I am looking for non- dividend paying, growth oriented, momentum driven (yes, even in this awful stock melt down climate!) Canadian companies which are not expensive to buy. 5 to 10 bucks? Willing to accept risk and can hold on to them for 3 years at least. I have GUD, ECN.
Thank you.

Q: Seems to have blown the numbers out big time and the stock was halted. They were offered a buy out around $20.00 which the government blocked. Do you see aecon as a $30.00 stock long term. Thanks.

Q: What is the reason for the large drop in this stock? Is this a buying opportunity?

Q: your view on the quarterly results thanks

Q: Hi team,
What do you think about their earnings results? Would you put any weight on Ackerman buying today 696M worth of stock. Also any comments on GRUB would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Q: Mullen Group reported results today and they are what they are. I watched the CEO on BNN today and did not find his interview “warm and fuzzy”. Actually I found he was bitter and he blamed the government and economic influences beyond his control for the company results. I came away thinking if the CEO doesn’t think positively of the future then it’s time to exit my holdings and move on.
Am I way off the mark? Would appreciate your advice.
Thanks John
