Investment Q&A

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

Q: Lots happening here today. I understood from all the different sources that there was an auction and identified bidders were Blackstone, Carlisle and Apollo Global and maybe others. Blackstone and Carlisle are out for now because their bids were not competitive. There is a deadline on this auction.

Who knows what is true here but is this a real process. Wouldn't there have to be something more formal that would require a news release?

Thanks for you input.

Q: Well, that was a wild turn of events.

Buy more? Sell or hold for better days ahead?

If the private equity firms have indeed walked away, does that make the business less valuable or should it still recover into the $40-50 range once the hysteria dies down? Put another way, was it at $45 because it was worth that or is it a $35 stock with hype and upside priced in on the deal.

Thanks

Q: I am thinking about parking some cash in one or both of these ETF's (perhaps a 50/50 split) for the next 12 months. I understand that rate increases could adversely impact the unit price but given that rates are not expected to increase in Canada anytime soon and these are Canadian corporate bond funds not American would there be any impact from a US rate hike? If so, why? Secondly, what do you think of the downside risk and is there a better option you would suggest.
Thank you

Q: I have notice there is 2 to 3 times volume last week. Is there any news or is it because of interest rate. Will there be any impact if interest rate goes up. Do you think it is time to sell and move to SIA. I am holding both - Csh.un - 5% and Sia - 1%

Thanks a lot
