Investment Q&A

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

Q: Peter, these are stocks that I believe you have recently suggested for growth. Some have had decent pullbacks in price. Can you please rank these, based on today's prices, for purposes of long-term capital and income gains in a TFSA. And, if you have an alternative current favourite to add, please add it to the rankings. Thank you!

Q: I'm 78 and interested in income with security of capital and I'm wondering about changing the percentage allocation of various sectors. For example, rather than hold 5% in each of healthcare, materials and energy, I'm considering holding 15% in healthcare. NWH.un, SIA, DR and SIS are broadly diversified within the sector, provide an excellent average income and have been generally approved by 5i. What do you think, and feel free to make suggestions.

Thanks for all the steady, interesting and profitable suggestions daily.

Q: I plan to build a small aggressive high growth portfolio within my TFSA. This will represent a very small part of my overall investments.

Can you give me 5 or 6 names of companies that could have great growth potential over the next year or so that I could buy today? Risk is not really a factor as this is a small part of my overall plan and I am quite prepared for volatility and even loss.

Q: Pls. provide a synopsis of their recent quarterly results along with answers to the following questions.

Your analyses of this company usually reference high debt levels. Is not most of this debt for new aircraft purchases that are secured by their CPA with Air Canada? i.e. isn't debt servicing a pass through cost?

My concern in their quarterly and subsequent news is their entry into the equipment leasing business. This seems a strange endeavor for a company seen to have high debt levels. Do you see this as adding significant risk?

Thanks, Hugh

Q: Google is said to have a very wide moat with it being a leader in search. But we all know what happens in tech -- when people reach the top there is no more room to grow or something disrupts that moat and it comes crashing down. How secure is Google and CSU and Shopify of them not being disrupted by new, nimble startups?

Q: After reasonably positive financial results the shares made a new low on large volume. The only negative I could find was the low cash position triggering higher interest rate on the debentures. Would you suggest to continue holding or accept that the market is saying that there is something wrong with the company.
Thanks for the great service. Peter
