Q: What do you think of investing in this company at the current time? The national post ran an article today about the weight loss benefits of Ozempic. And to maintain the weight loss, one needs to take it for life. Do you think this opportunity has already been priced into the stock? Appreciate your thoughts. Thanks

Q: I have been sorting my portfolio now I have transitioned from an advisor managed portfolio to one I manage myself. This stock is less than 1% of my portfolio. I bought it, sold not long into the pandemic and purchased some last year. The decision I have is do I add to this near these levels or drop it and focus on growing a position in another industrial stock in the portfolio (CN (thinking of switching to CP), CJT, EFN, WTE, WSP, XYL). For me geographic diversity is currently 90/10 Canadian in this sector.

Q: What is the correct symbol to trade the Mercedes ADR in the US.
I get DMLRY when I search it in my service provider. I have also seen MBGYY and MGBAF but can’t trade those apparently. Also no recent trade history comes up. Why is that, can’t believe it’s not trading?
Thanks,
Len

Q: What do you think of Fresnillo (FNLPF) as an option for Canadian investors? The volume of shares being traded seems very low, but just today (Feb 16th) the Globe & Mail ranked it number one on a list of “silver producers with sustainable dividends”.

Q: I have been looking at both Stellantis and Mercedes Benz (via ADR) as potential investments. Both pay above a 6% dividend and both have performed well on a year-to-date basis. It seems as though the dividend for each is paid yearly: is this accurate? Also, would either investment be sensible for someone looking for stable dividend yield with some growth of the underlying investment? Any insights will be much appreciated. Thanks so much, and I look forward to your commentary.

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I have owned this bank for several years and am aware of all their problems. I know they are in transition and restructuring. I realize they are at risk but am wondering if at this point it could be viewed as a possible contrarian play. It seems so cheap to what I paid in the past that I am thinking that maybe I have nothing to loose in buying more and at least recovering some of my money back. Of course that means that they will survive and not go bankrupt...even a take over might lift the value. Or do you think I am just in dream land? Thanks for your opinion as usual.

Thank you,

3)Finally if you do agree what options would you reccomend investors consider.
