Investment Q&A

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

Q: Do you do a detailed competitive analysis when you research a company? If so, can you provide such for NFI. My specific concerns are the new plants being added to the US that will compete with NFI, 2 that will be online by next year:
- Novabus' new North American assembly plant
- Gillig is in the process of building a new plant in California
An additional 3 new entrants have announced their intention to enter the NA market

Thanks

Q: Using low end of guidance @ $2.18 the shares are trading at below 11x P/E. Globeinvestor chart is showing RSI in oversold territory (unless I am reading wrong or using incorrect data - which could be a possibility :)).
The long term debt is still pretty high but if we are to believe mgmt.'s story the shares are cheap. I've been picking away and I'm at half a position with an ACB of around $30. Would you suggest buying the other half position with the share price currently at $23.01 as I am writing this question? Or continue to average in during the tax loss selling season?

Q: I own shares of KXS. It’s been a bit of a wild ride. Today the stock is around $68, a price it last reached about 12 months ago. With this reset on the price the mkt seems to be saying its future potential as an investment is equal to or worse than it was a year ago; that despite a year of operations, the company is not stronger today than it was a year ago. While I would be hesitant to buy more until the share price decline stops, the risk/reward for KXS for a longer term investment is becoming more compelling. Your views?

Q: I have taken a loss on shares which I own of the Stars Group (TSG) in my US investment account. If I sell these shares, and then immediately buy the Stars Group (TSGI) shares for my Canadian investment account, am I still allowed to deduct my tax loss from my US account? In other words, are the US shares (TSG) and the Canadian shares (TSGI) considered unique for the purpose of tax deduction on a loss? Thank you.
