Investment Q&A

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

Q: Incredible how you leave investors behind and telling them to sell win at rock bottom.if this was the only company that your advise would be wrong on.it would not be bad.
Scr,avo,win,gxi,bin,sgy....and many more.
Sure after they are out of your portfolio,everything looks fine again
Your track record is getting very lousy the least.
I am very disapointed in your advise

Q: I was surprised that you dropped coverage of this company. I have a position and also feel the pain but how low can it go ... With regard to management, i suppose they did a few good moves in the past if you were confortable with them before the recent events. Are they other factors outside lack of visibility and dividend cut that makes this a sell. It can be a mistake but i don t see the point of selling at these level if the company s balance sheet is still strong with a few years ahead to better position themselves. You general comments are always appreciated. Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter,
The results out today from GRC look quite spectacular, at least on the surface. I have a small position, and added some more today. I wanted to get your thoughts on 2 things: the sustainability of the 10% dividend, and method(s) to estimate fair value for the shares, given that revenue and earnings will likely be quite volatile and unpredictable over the next months/years.
Thanks for your excellent service!

Q: Big moves in Badger, is this some short covering, or is the market reacting to the earnings report. Your comments are greatly appreciated.

Q: In reference to another members comment regarding portfolio performance, I agree that it would be important to show both the "losers" and the winning trades. The inclusion of date position was opened and the date closed would be beneficial for all of us.
Please share and consider this request for the portfolios.
Regards,

Q: I hold CN in my unregistered account and it has gone up considerably. I plan to donate half my holding to charity and buy it back either using my & my spouse's TFSA for 2016 or in my unregistered account. Have you a suggestion as to which is the better spot for it? I assume it will probably not repeat the spectacular rise it has had since I bought it years ago.

Q: I own this deb. coming due June 30, 2017 and paying 6.5%. The broker has informed me that it is being delisted from the TSX in early Dec. Do you think I will still be paid the 6.5% and the principal in 2017? I have not received any correspondence from Parallel.

Q: In your recent article on covered call writing for income you used CALM as an example. The stock is apparently heavily shorted and I am wondering was this a consideration when you chose the stock. It seems to have excellent fundamentals. Could you explain the short thesis?
Many thanks

Q: I bought shares in the above in an DIY investment account forgetting I had
holdings in both elsewhere.Is it reasonable to sell both at a loss to free up some cash for investment elsewhere to achieve more balance in my portfolio and to use losses as a tax loss(both are in a nonregistered account)?
Thanks so much for your help.

Q: Hi team.
With the news out last night that Kirkland gold is to acquire all shares of SAS,after the boards of both companies have agreed to the merger,would it be advantageous for myself a SAS shareholder to agree and tender my shares or stay for the long term? The value of SAS shares are calculated to be worth.47 and this morning are trading at .43!!! Your thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated as I am just not sure what to do in this case!!!
Many thanks,
Jean

Q: Do you think it is getting expensive.Hate selling stocks at new highs.if sold where would you go
Read Answer Asked by andrew on November 17, 2015
Q: I have to preface this by saying I`m not a buy and hold investor, but it makes me wonder when people complain about a stock`s poor performance. If a stock has dropped 50% why are you still holding. At what point does it become obvious this is not a good investment at this time. That`s not to say it won`t be a good investment in the future, but it now has to double for you to break even.
Sorry for the rant, and I would like to thank 5I for helping me to retire early and continue to live a reasonable lifestyle.
