Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hello,

VNP has pulled back from its high of $36. Results are expected on May 6th after the close. Given the solid fundamentals, the critical minerals theme, and the tailwinds from AI and defence, for an investor with a 3 to 5 year horizon, would you initiate a full position today ahead of results, or would you wait for post-earnings confirmation?

Thanks

Q: Given that even with yesterday's loss in BEPC a substantial premium still remains for the BEPC vs BEP.un, do you advise selling BEPC while the premium still exists?

Are either BIP.un or BEP.un buys at current prices and if not what would you recommend as entry prices?

Do you think the selloff in CPX was overdone and if so, what price would you consider to buy?

Thank you

Q: Reviewing the earnings today and the most obvious impact to reported NI was the dramatic increase in 'energy purchases and fuel'.
Given that I assume that means nat gas and what not that their power stations need to create electricity, pls comment on their ability to adjust their pricing on the assumption that fuel costs will stay higher longer and if not, would one continue to hold cpx?

Q: I purchased FSV at $17 and have held it since 2015 in a registered account. I missed selling it at the recent high as I consider it to be a well run company. I notice it has declined even though the latest earnings were ok.
What has been the cause of the decline over the recent months and what is your advice about holding or selling at this time.

Q: I own Wallmart Costco and Dollarama in the Consumer defensive sector. They each comprise about 2% of my portfolio holdings for a total of 6%. Would it make sense to just own the big two compounders Wallmart and Costco and sell Dollarama?

Q: I’m looking at starting a position in Celestica. Aggressive growth in my TFSA is the goal. One concern I have come across is the potential fraud case about Google switching suppliers. I realize these potential cases are a dime a dozen but after my recent GSY experience I am extra vigilant about potential malfeasance on the part of management, either real or imagined, as either scenario is bad for the company. Could you please offer any insight into this situation. I’m fine with short-term noise but if there’s potential for lingering issues I’d rather put the money elsewhere. Thanks for your insight.
