Investment Q&A

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

Q: I see you have removed SYZ from the balanced portfolio. As a thin trader, would you expect the stock to go down as some/many of your followers will 'rebalance' to match your moves? If it does move down, is this a lesson for subscribers to be careful in investing in recommendations that trade thinly? Of course, it works the other way when a thinly traded stock is first recommended.

Q: Hi 5i
I have been considering buying kbro linen as a portfolio stabilizer with 3% div income.
Your previous comments ant stock price movement indicate stability; to the point of boredom.
Would you please confirm or comment on expectations and below thoughts?

Efficiencies should be increasing with positive effect on margins
New plants will enable growth with increase in capacity
Dominant industry position should enhance contract win potential
Scotland acquisition will add to earnings
Eventually all this should show up in earnings and stock price

As a final Q, sentiment has weakened recently (small volume). Any thoughts on likelihood of negative sentiment will outweigh positive fundamentals whereby drive stock price down through 38 dollar support?

Thanks for your input.
Dave

Q: An update to my Nov 2016 comment. My now 7 year old's RESP CSU shares are comfortably 6 baggers (previously only 4 baggers in Nov 2016). Thanks again and looking forward to my first 10 bagger. Again thanks for the advice to not be afraid to buy a stock that has gone up in price. I've purchased CSU in a number of other accounts since and all are now up a minimum of 100%.

Q: Hi Peter and team - I have read the description of Photon Control's business in TD Waterhouse but am still unsure of exactly what it does. Would you be able to give an easy-to-understand summary of the company. Also could you comment on recent insider buying/selling and overall ownership, as well as provide any reasons that makes this a good buy at this time. Thanks for the excellent service.

Q: With the CEO stepping down and the sale of the Co. I feel I have been snookered. Having waited these 2 years for the turn around to higher sales I thought I finally had a multi year horizon for growth. Between the CEO leaving and the sale is it even advisable to say no to the BO offer? I could only imagine a steep sell off with CEO gone and a successful No. Would like to hear your opinion.

TIA

Q: I'm interested in GSY and I notice you've been giving it some more praise lately as a good option of a beaten up stock. When doing my own DD I find it looks very good on many metrics but it always has negative cash flow and many years has negative ROIC, both of which at first glance would deter me from this stock. I'm sure this is due to the fact they are loaning out money or something along those lines but can you help me understand this? Thanks

Q: I have sent Avigilon's Investor relations an inquiry about this, but, in general, wouldn't there be a shareholder's vote on the takeover? I don't usually stick around for these things (I take my profits and run!) but in this case I don't like the offer very much and would definitely vote against it. The only mitigating factor now however is the announcement that the CEO is retiring. Do you think this news is material to the possibility of another offer?

Thank-you.
