Investment Q&A

Q: Could you suggest 6 or 7 Canadian equities (irrespective of sector) that would be suitable as GIC/Bond proxies? Secure dividend and slighlty positive growth potential?
Thank you for all you do.

Q: What do you think is the primary reason why EIF is having such trouble getting any kind of traction? Their recent earnings were solid and well received by investment firms, many of whom raised their targets (eg. TD, RBC, Canaccord, Raymond James, ATB). And yet within a couple of days, the stock price has reversed itself and is now back down below $48.00.

Thanks as always.

Q: With the up coming US election in November and the pressure on the fed to cut rates. What are your thoughts on where the TLT will be in the latter part of this year and would that likely be the high for the TLT for the next 12 months?

Thanks.

Q: Could i please have your current thoughts on GCT for a long-term investment, and the expectations for its earnings on March 15. If its earnings do not meet market expectations and the stock sells off, would you see the sell-off as an opportunity to add to one's position. Thank you.

Q: Good Day,

I picked up CELH and CROX based on the answer to my last question, and added in POWL to boot. Based on my portfolio in my previous question, was POWL something you would consider redundant in my account, or would you be fine with that type of addition in your portfolio.

I have been holding SNPS and CDNS for a minute now, and it just seems to bounce back and forth between +5% and -5%. Are these mostly growers on news and earnings? What are their respective Expected growth rates over the next 1 and 2 years?

This brings me to almost "fully deployed". I have noticed in the last couple weeks that the volatility in the market seems to have increased, and the average of that volatility seems to be sort of flat over this time. I have seen some videos and articles calling for the "AI Bubble" to burst, etc. Do you think there will be a cooling in that space coming? and if that occurs will the market follow it? I've seen many replies where you state that NVDA has a clear 18 month runway for growth, and thus I imagine the companies that support it as well, does that still hold true in your view? If said cooling could be coming, would it be worth the fees to say, shrink/cut some positions? Or is that too much like timing the market and thus better to stay in?

Thanks for everything,

Q: Hi, Your comments on awful results last Friday? In the past, analysts seem to like the stock. Looks very cheap. Is it worth owning these stocks so thinly traded (not a single trade on Friday) ? Thanks a lot.

Q: I am going to add to at least one of my under weight companies. In what order would you add? Please provide a few notes as to why.
Thanks. ram

Q: ATD has had a very nice run over the past year. Having said that, do you view it as more of a defensive play that will not do as well relative to other positions if the Canadian economy starts to grow more rapidly or do you think it is the type of company that will do well relative to others in any economy? I am trying to figure out whether it is starting to look like a good time to trim it back any take some profits. Thanks as always.

Q: I want to buy the above 6 stocks at a full position of each in a balanced portfolio for a long time hold. Are there any you wouldn't buy at this time and continue to watch, or any you would buy a half position and watch? Thanks!
