Investment Q&A

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

Q: picCould you please put into context the recent earnings from PIC.A. The operating profit of 14.9M and the increase in net assets attributable to class A shareholders of 10.1M does not give me any feel for whether the company has done a good job over the past six months or not or whether that performance is consistent with or better or worse than previous periods in relation, perhaps, to their underlying investments. Thank you.

Q: Pason Systems has been currently trading below $18 mark and its close to hitting its year low. Do you think it is a good value buying opportunity?
What are the risks you foresee for this company?
I recently read form company website and that they are also exploring new sectors (non-oil) such as power, etc. Whats your view on that and how significant are they or how capital intensive are they. Will these new business lines change the revenue mix (away from oil) significantly ? If you can throw more light on these new initiatives it would be helpful. Thanks.

Q: Considering only the dividends and disregarding the other differences, what is more likely, that a strong covered call etf such as ZWH would stop paying a dividend, or that an annuity purchased from a major bank would stop making payments? Or are both extremely unlikely events regardless of the economic scenario?

Q: I manage a TFSA for a 26 year old relative, with the following stocks:
GSY, CSU, PHO, KWH-UN, COV, GOOG

With the cash coming from KWH, we are looking to buy. So two questions:
1. Is there any obvious "hole" in terms of sector that we should try to fill?
2. She has indicated a desire for a renewable energy stock. We are considering BEP.UN, AQN, NPI, RNW - which you you choose, or is there another you would suggest instead?

Thanks for your excellent service!
