Investment Q&A

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

Q: I own these shares in my portfolio for some growth and income. FTS has dropped sharply in the past couple days, instead gaining because of the deals they have done. I like to have your opinion as to how safe they are? Would I be better of trading them for ETFs like ZUT and ZWU as they seem less volatile. Perhaps you can suggest alternatives. I would also like your view weather to buy ENB or ENF or another pipeline stock. I like the new format, my apologies for my previous comment of finding confusing.
Many thanks, J.A.P, Burlington

Q: Not a question on a stock but a comment on the recent changes.

In having the option to receive "email updates daily", I'm assuming you mean that questions are filtered to your watchlist, and are not actually sent to one's inbox email. Is that correct?

When I click on my Watchlist, I see all the recent questions related to those I've marked -- but I'm not actually receiving any updates via e-mail.

Please clarify how this for me. Thank you.

Q: Hello Peter
I have ATD.b in my portfolio,and after reading today article in The Globe And Mail http://www.theglobeandmail.com//report-on-business/couche-tard-chairman-says-bay-street-investors-blocking-founders-control/article29699072/ I would appreciate your opinion. Is this situation posing any serious danger to ATD.B (sell of) or is this opportunity to buy more of this stock, or do nothing is better option?
Thanks Andrew

Q: This might be a tough question but I am pretty sure you would have seen it before. I need strategic help. I can’t seem to sell a losing stock. I am paralyzed by the fear that by selling I lock in the loss. Or that at the current price it is actually the time to buy the stock.
Surprisingly even with this list of losers my portfolio is actually up. Much to the credit of 5i. So I don’t need to sell but can’t help thinking that the money could be put to better use. I am also pretty sure that there could be different advice for each stock. But anyway here is my list. What do you think? Sell or hold?
Please take as many question points as you feel is appropriate.
TMA -21%
GH -20%
GS -30%
HLF -33%
PM -25%
WEF -20%
AYA – 45%
CXR -34%
PHM – 79%

Q: I sold all my energy and pipeline positions in early 2015 and currently have no such holdings. I am considering slowly re-entering this space. Do you think it is a good entry point for Ala, ppl and ipl? Any addition, deletions and modification would be appreciated. I am not adverse to risk. Thanks for all the good advice past, present and future.

Q: Hello Peter and Ryan
CGI has done very well for me and I am considering trimming it and applying the funds to FLIR, a company you have frequently recommended. Could I have your opinion on this move?
Thanks for everything. ( Really like the changes! Between you and your clients I am learning daily. Also reading Market Masters. Great read.)
