Investment Q&A

Q: These are in my TFSA at red ATZ AEM, BNS, CCL.B, GSY SIS, and these are at green BYD, CSU, LMN, SHOP, WSP, and TFII. Very close to my cost are BN, ENB, MG, DSG. Would you suggest anything for cleaning up or any new addition(s). Please deduct as many points as required.
Thank you

Q: Market caps in the US surpass 1 Trillion. What companies do you see in Canada getting close to 250B or 500B market cap? Is that possible or is the market too small and these mega caps will only be found in the US.

Q: My daughter is just getting her start investing after setting up a TFSA. What is recommended for the initial $7000? ETF’s? Stocks like CSU, BRK.B?

Q: Hello, what is your opinion of RTX, their Q4 earnings, their future growth given the problems with Pratt engines? Is this a good time to invest, with wars popping up here and there? Thanks.

Q: In my US TFSA, I currently hold Costco Microsoft Berkshire Hathaway and Intuitive Surgical at equal weighting. I’m making my annual maximum contribution. Which one would you recommend at this time?

Q: Peter; I just received the TVK info re upcoming shareholders meeting. I wasn’t aware that two directors/ shareholders held such large positions. Obviously they could never sell into the market that trades maybe 10,000+- a day. It’s close to $50.00 this am - THANK YOU- my question is do you think there may be a secondary issue of shares by these two ? It would also provide more liquidity- which may attract institutional interest- and help estate planning for the two.? Thanks.

Q: For someone looking to make a first time entry into the sector, which one of the two would you recommend and why? Are there any others to consider that would rank above these?

Thank you.

Q: What is your view on NOC's recent earnings. Would you continue to hold or are there other companies in the sector that you believe are signicficantly better investments. Thanks as always for you expertise.

Q: Would you give me 5 of your TOP picks CANADA and USA Thank you RAK

Q: I need clarification on Norbert's Gambit which my brokerage appears to dislike.

I would like to convert a quantity of $US in my $US Account to my $C Brokerage Account without paying the brokerage spread. Would you please correct any errors in my thinking and answer my questions as I try to use Norbert’s Gambit. I asked the brokerage for assistance and I was told that the agent was not permitted to provide assistance for the Gambit. All he could do was to follow my instructions.
Do I:
1. Buy Horizon’s DLR.U in the Canadian side. How do I do this when my $US are located on the US side? Can I journal the $US into my $C Account and retain them as US currency?
2. Sell DLR, not DLR.U in $C on the Canadian side. What do I have to do, if anything, to change DLR.U to DLR?
With great appreciation,
Ed

Q: Please give me the dividend payout ratio based on Non-GAAP earning per share, operating cash flow per share and free cash flow per share. Thanks.

Q: We seemed to be cursed with "Living in interesting times". Do you think Lockheed Martin is a possibly, smart buy after their quarter/2023 report and resulting pull back?

Q: Yet another question about WELL. Insiders have bought shares actively in the end of December. Most likely with end of the year options or is it? Do we know if their purchases were made at market price?
