Q: Since this company's IPO the share price has continuously decreased. It's company had already fulfilled it's stock buying program and announced another $200M USD program.

It's growth prospects seem strong, it's branding and connection with younger customers seems in tact and it is targeting a segment of the market with actual banking solutions that are missing in the market. On top of this, the fastest growing segments seem to be middle income consumers which will boast the credit profile and reducing some risks.

Anything to like or dislike about this company aside from the profitability profile which is weak but improving?

Q: My question is abit more general on the big 6 banks but I own RY primarily.
What is the historical PE multiple range for the banks and RY specifically. I feel like they are getting a bit expensive compared to historical ranges and the yield is now below 3%. If I had more confidence in the Canadian economy I wouldn’t feel so complex to take some profits off the table and maybe rotate into a few non-bank financials. What do you think? Thanks

Q: Need to add financial stock within my portfolio in the next week or two. For a TFSA, not needed for at least 5 years. Based on exchanges in this platform, I am considering HOOD and BN. I am very much a crypto skeptics. Assuming that I put a value near 0 to HOOD's business, would this still be a buy? Would you recommend another stock instead of these two? Which ones?

Q: Good morning,

Yesterday GameStop made an unsolicited, non-binding offer to acquire eBay for $125/share in cash and stock, valuing the company at roughly $55.5 billion. GameStop’s market capitalization is a little less than $12 billion.

The proposal is a steep premium to recent trading levels, but also raises questions about financing. Apparently TD has committed ~ $20bn to the financing of this proposed transaction.

Shares of GameStop fell about 10% Monday following the announcement, reflecting investor skepticism around the feasibility of the deal and the potential strain on the company’s balance sheet.

I have read that the more likely outcome at the proposed valuation would push leverage to roughly 7.7x debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization — a level bordering on distressed.

As a TD shareholder, should I be worried?

Thanks as always.
