Investment Q&A

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

Q: I'm looking to add a healthcare stock. I sold CRH to lock in the loss and have watched it climb daily while I cannot buy it due to the 30 day CRA loss rule. I have have another 3 weeks before I could buy it. Should I look at other stocks in this sector that are better or wait and buy CRH? I have an 8% weighting in healthcare.

Q: Reading the press release regarding SIS increasing its dividend, the president stated "Considering the aging population and its desire to age at home, we expect continued growth of over 10% in our lift division over the next five years and we maintain our objective to generate revenue of some $500 million by the end of 2021," concluded Mr. Bourassa.
With 2016-12 revenue at 120 million, that is a 4x revenue increase in 5 years. Very promising. How would you calculate the market cap and share price in 5 years based on his 5 year objective?

Q: hello 5i:
I am normally a fairly risk averse investor. Butttttt, knowing that the key person is probably the most important ingredient in a company, and assuming the company has a product that is still relevant (we'll rule out typewriters and horse drawn buggies), I am more than willing to have a small part of our portfolio in a growth company with good earnings potential. ie, we are invested in GUD, primarily because of Jonathan Goodman.
Recently, I've read about a company called Synergy CHC, run by a man called Jack Ross. Mr Ross is a very major shareholder in SNYR. And Knight (GUD) has invested in SNYR, something I see as a vote of confidence from Mr Goodman.
Knowing its not your forte, but trying to do my due diligence, can I ask you to comment on this company? I would try to establish a position at $XXX as it seems to be a thin trader, and fairly volatile. But I can't access this name on Stockcharts, so am a little constrained with TA. And there is not much information, in general, available.
Any advice you can give is beneficial
note that you can publish all of this question, EXCEPT FOR the part about my (hopeful) offer price.

Q: Hello team,

Would you buy this company at this time? Is its massive/nonstop share price growth really justified? Isn't there any competition out there for it? What are the pitfalls in your opinion? What do you think about its mid-/long-term prospects?

Thanks for your exemplary insights as always!
