Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi Guys, my above holdings got wacked lately and was wondering if there is anything going on, from the above list should I sell anything besides WEED, are the institutions selling these companies because they think there is more to the downside? These are long term holdings are all up except for COV and KXS which I just bought before the tumble, not one of my best moves.

Thanks

Q: Hi,

SHOP has held it's own very well wondering if it would be a good idea to reduce SHOP to small position from full position. And buy SIS, BNS, NFI or PBH..for safety and growth when the markets decide to rebound...Your thoughts and sage advice welcome.
Also I am surprised at SIS sharp drop for a small miss...Should I be taking advantage of this?

Thanks. Shyam

Q: I’d like to invest in companies with excellent balance sheets, a clear catalyst for growth, and which are trading at a discount to their historic valuation. I’m hoping you can provide a list of stocks, both domestic & foreign, that meet these criteria. Are there any sectors or countries with an abundance of such companies right now? If so, please suggest some appropriate ETFs. Thanks very much.

Q: HI Peter
The numbers for the quarter were good from revenue but not profit, but the longer term numbers were good. Also, i would think for an emerging company, the revenues should be the focus, but I am assuming the market will bring it down like the rest of the cannibis stocks. What do you think of the numbers and do you think Canntrust looks good in comparison to others? Thanks

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan,

We have a few dogs with the downturn but we also cashed in all of our high runners in early October. Your insight is invaluable in our portfolio management strategy and we understand the decision to buy or sell is in our control. On that note, we have been buyers the past two weeks when a stock drops 25%-40% (i.e. KXS today at $67.99). Can you comment on the following opportunities (BYD.UN, WSP, NFI, CCL.B, PBH, SHOP, ENHG) to purchase now with a 3-5 year hold inside RRSP's.
1. Please rank (based on your expertise) the above stocks from best to worst as of today to add to an RRSP.
2. Which of the above, if any, are considered "prime" to purchase today.

Thank you
Jerry and Debbie

Q: I have been accumulating cash in accounts for my 4 grandchildren, ages 2 - 10, and would now like to invest these proceeds. So, for long term holds, with some growth and some stability, what would be your stock recommendations. I have been considering investments such as BAM, SIS, AQN. Am I on the right track with these selections and/or are there others I should consider, such as TD and RY?
Many thanks........Jim

Q: Hi,

Self storage companies in the US and companies in Canada such as SVI appear to trade at very high multiples (i.e. P/FFO and P/AFFO). Why is this? I've wanted to invest for some time but am uncomfortable about the valuation . Is there something I'm missing about the self storage space that warrants these apparent premiums?

Thanks for your response.
