Investment Q&A

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

Q: GUD continues to go nowhere, and mostly down of late. It's been probably over 2 years that the story has been the same. Have patience and wait for Goodman to spend some of his $775m hoard. Recent earnings were underwhelming. Do you still feel the same way about GUD's prospects? Is there any thought of removing it from the portfolio due to it being a non-performer?

Q: I'm interested in taking a position in Photon Controls. Can you confirm my calculations that they have 30 cents per share in cash?

Also, is there anything in the earnings report that raises any red flags for you?

And do you have the same level of confidence in the company, after reading their earnings report that you had 24 hours ago?

Q: Hi 5iR, This is not a question just a comment on TOY. 5iR I think you need to adjust your thinking on TOY. An increasing number of kids today do not play with toys. They play with their devices. As a grandparent I watch my grandchildren spend hours on their devices, not toys....it drives me nuts...... Since TOY is not in the software business, I would be a seller of TOY not a buyer. Cheers, Chris

Q: I own ENGH in a taxable account with a 200% gain. I also own CSU, DSG, SHOP and ZQQ all 5 stocks with a 4% weighting. I have a long time frame and wondering if you would suggest selling ENGH and replace with what IT stock? To offset some of the 200% gain, I could sell ENB and AQN which are both below my cost base and repurchase them in 30 days.
