Q: Everyone, there is a lot of noise of a stock market decline. The stock market will decline, maybe more or less than anticipated, in the short term - it always does. What should you do if the market goes down 5%, or 10% or 20% or more. I have good stocks and don’t plan to sell - just watch and wait. Clayton
Q: Hi,
Warren B steps down at year-end and it should be a non-event in the markets, as the succession plan has been well planned out and fully disclosed. But any thoughts on the new direction coming from CEO Greg Abel in the new year?
Maybe a new dividend, or spend some of the 381B sitting in cash?
Thanks.
Q: The above firms I've been following on a watchlist for possible additions to my U.S.account.
My themes are bricks & mortar U.S.Nuclear, Renewable Energy, Space Launch / Satellite Services, Quantum Computing, Residential Real Estate recovery and Industrial Robotics.
My questions:
The momentum is solid for most of these,
I have no problem buying positions in BXWT or BE. The others are like investing in OKLO....the financials are dubious at best. Which 2 of the other themes would you consider investible today and why?
Thanks in advance. David
Q: Good Day,
I just trimmed back my position in GOOG and would like to start a new position in one of the following: CECO; GLXY; ISRG; URI. Please indicate what your order of preference would be if buying today?
Secondly, would you start a position now, or would you wait until tax loss selling is in full swing within the next few weeks?
Thanks for the great service.
Cheers
Q: Hi 5i,
I've owned MDA long enough to have done well by it. Now, however, since its vulnerability to events beyond its control has twice been demonstrated I have concluded that I'll sell and take my money and run, unless there is reasonable possibility that it too will be sold to a buyer in the space biz.
Knowing what you know about MDA and the universe it operates in, can I have your opinion as to whether or not MDA is or may be an attractive takeover target?
Thanks 5i,
Peter
Q: General question here. Many folks often ask for stock ranking and entry prices. However, as I am typically a long term holder of equities can you put into perspective how we should interpret this info? If we are going to buy something long term (10yrs or more) isn't it rather immaterial if we end up "overpaying" somewhat. This becomes even more true with growthier type stocks that have great upside but can only go to 0 as worse case scenario, when considering position sizing. So, that being said, can you help clarify how we should navigate "good buying" and what main criteria should we consider that may be more important overall than just entry price? Thanks!
I am looking to add one name to my income portfolio and the names mentioned above come to mind.
I own TD, ENB and FTS, so have a representation in the sectors. I would like a high dividend (who doesn't) and a dividend grower too.
Would you have a favorite amongst these or would prefer another name?
Regards
Rajiv
Q: Considering the uncertainty about its major customer, but taking into account the crucial nature of its products and expertise, does the stock present a buying opportunity at $27.5-$28, present levels, after a drop of 20% over two days, for someone to start a new position ?
We are aware that BMO and Scotia analysts have brought their price targets down to $36 and $40 ( Outperform ratings ) respectively, lowering their P/E multiple to discount possible impact of this news.
Q: 1) is there a dividend
2) they do an "annual net capital gains distribution"? what does that mean?
3) is there a better choice in this field?
4) Better to wait or purchase now?
