Investment Q&A

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

Q: I have read all of the answers regarding Namaste and it does not seem that you find it very attractive;however, given the latest announcements on the medical and the recreational side, do you now feel it has good potential from here. The company seems to be landing good agreements for distribution and their medical side seems interesting. My only concern is what stops the big players from replicating their model? Thanks

Q: There is only cash available in a LIRA, aka no cash in a non-registered account or TFSA.
At the same time, I would like to invest in three new positions - MG, TFII and WSP for a balanced portfolio. I have read in the past 5iR thought it preferable to hold MG in a non-registered account because of the cyclicality of the business but that if held in a registered account, then might want to trade around the cycles. I would like your take of holding these three companies in a LIRA that will start to be drawn down in about 2 years but will span, hopefully with good ageing, many years.....Thanks....Tom

Q: Hi
I'm a bit confused over how to assess growth companies on a valuation basis. I understand you can use a PEG ratio to factor in future growth, but a lot of the growth companies out there have PEG ratios that are far above one. How then would I know whether a company is "undervalued"? Would you compare to peers in the same sector or compare to historical values? Is there a PEG ratio that you have in mind above which you would never invest?
Thanks!

Q: Can I get your current marijuana picks (one larger cap, one mid cap, and one smaller cap), with the criteria being eps growth, revenue growth, and balance sheet strength?

I started doing a little work on Organigram and unless I am mistaken, it looks like it has a forward p/e of 40 (eps numbers obtained from Thompson Reuters), low debt and a relatively small number of shares compared to its peers. These numbers dont look too shabby to me, against the backdrop of its higher valuation peers. Is there anything specifically in OGI's profile that could pose challenges in the future?

Thanks.

John

Q: I'm currently invested in (and seem to be treading water on) SCHW. Given your confidence in GC, I'm wondering if a switch might be prudent? One concern is that I already own TSGI (Thank you!) and I am wondering if this would be a bit redundant?

Q: I'm looking to add 6 Canadian stocks to my registered accounts; stocks (and if appropriate ETFs) that display good growth potential and have a bit of a dividend. I'd appreciate your suggestions, in order of preference please. Thanks as always.
