Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

This is somewhat of an abstract question but is important for my analysis nonetheless. Can you name a couple Canadian companies that you think would have a strong competitive advantage if they were to expand into the US or a similar country (i.e. Australia)?

Stantec (multinational consultant status advantage for companies in Australia, yet similar legal system) and Cineplex ('purchasing power?') come to mind, but I end up banging my head on the desk when trying to come up with others. Does anything stand out to you guys?

Further to Russell's question on DHX and the proposed share proposal and it's negative impact on small shareholders and detrimental impact on possible buy out opportunity, what is the benefit to DHX to go down this road?

Thanks,

Q: Hi Peter,
Regarding the question on the potential DHX media share structure, is it best to put a stop loss on the stock if it is a structure that limits its upside (potential take over )? The official announcement(after earnings ) alone could bring pressure to the stock

Thanks so much.

Q: AFN - Ag Growth seems to be struggling here and I am wondering why. I thought their last report was good and they seem to be bulking up internationally. Any thoughts?

Q: Hi Peter,
Awesome job on your cycling journey. I enjoy reading your blogs and have financially supported this cause.
Do you have any insight as to why Horizons North Logistics is losing ground today?
Also, do you think this is a good time/price to pick it up to include in a balance portfolio?
Thanks!

Q: I am a new sudscriber.
Re your model portfolio: I don't see the initial amount of money invested in each stock, the number of shares bought and the total at the start of the portfolio.
Given that the portfolio has had an 8.7% performance rate to date, how would one emulate this portfolio without coming in at a high level?
I look forward to being a subscriber to your excellent site that I have been aware of for some time now.
