Investment Q&A

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

Q: It appears that Transcontinental published pretty bad numbers for its Q1FY2023 and the market has reacted quite negatively and the drop has been brutal. In your opinion, how bad are these results? In their press release for the quarter they mentioned the printing segment drop considerably. Do you see other problems showing up? They also mentioned they are continuing paying the dividend but in your educated opinion, given these results, is it realistic for them to keep doing so or is it more an eventuality they will cutting it, akin to what happened with AQN. Is it a SELL or HOLD? -- My guess is, it's not a BUY.

Q: I hold all three companies , all bought when share prices were higher. Comments and rankings on these three please. All have shown some gains recently. Are they worth holding for improved macro conditions and eventual recovery? All three are in a taxable account, so should any be sold for tax loss?

Q: hi, can you please advise (if not already asked) analysis on these companies most recent 1/4 and FY results.
AT seems to have had increased revenues but profits are lacking vs comparable results, IMO.
PXT looks like it is firing on all cylinders (political risk aside) and the increased dividend seems to reflects that.
TOY seems to have mixed results again.

Any released forward looking statements concern you?

Are any of these adds/buys in today's market? I own about 2% each of all 3 in a diversified account.

Cheers,
Steve

Q: Would appreciate your view on Aritzia and its trajectory relative to LULU. Are we in early innings with ATZ with Lulu more mature. Possible in 5 years to have atleast 50% of Lulu market cap? The growth strategy seems sound and their stores are always jammed.

Q: I am interested in establishing a 2% position in the Consumer Defensive space, and I am debating between Loblaws and Premium Brands. This position is meant to be held for an extended time period of several years. Which company would be better positioned to provide me a substantial return, and if asked to choose, towards which one might you lean? If there is another opportunity in this space that you feel would better fit the aims I have described, I would be happy to read your thoughts. Thanks so much, and I look forward to reading your feedback.

Q: Morning Peter & Team,

I've done very well lately, large part thanks to you. Now I am preparing to take some off the table. Plan on investing part into a 1 yr term @ 5.65% which I figure is pretty good. I am also looking for names (stocks or ETFs) which generate good cash flow and support high sustainable dividends. Can you give me 3 names (Canada & US) that you think deserve consideration? Preferably minimal debt if possible please.

Thanks for all you do

Q: Hello 5i
Please explain if the sale or exchange of the 2 million shares is dilutive to shareholders- I don’t think so, please confirm.?. Who or what is HL1 17 LP ? The offering closes March 2. The closing date for this “event” is March 16: Are there two class of shares of RBI? If one is building a position is this a good entry point? Are shares likely to drift much lower than $63.99 (the price BoA is purchasing the shares for) in the face of this event? Would you see $63.99 as the floor? If not, can you guess how much lower?

Q: My TFSA has relatively small positions in these equities for some modest income. Most of my TFSA is positioned for growth. With Sylogist's recent dividend slash and resulting price tumble, I am thinking of taking my lumps on SYZ and redeploying the cash to buy more AX.UN that is value-priced.
What is your opinion?

Q: I've owned shares in Brookfield companies for a very long time, not having sold a share. I'm now very overweight in my overall portfolio 15%, BN & BIP.un being the lions share with smaller positions in BAM & BEPC.
I need to reduce the size of the overall position, can you share thoughts on similar types of companies that I could buy with that type of shareholder alignment in the management team
