Investment Q&A

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

Q: These four fine companies are all RSI oversold at present. I know you like all of them, or have, and am wondering if they could be considered strong buys at these levels ( for long term holders) or whether best to wait and see what the coming weeks bring us all. What order of priority would you give them for current investment? BTW, thanks for the consistently calm and perspective-driven approach you take in your advice.

Q: Hi 5i team,
There seems to be a lot of M&A activity brewing these days, especially in U.S. tech. AMD is in the process of acquiring XLNX and this morning there are reports that MRVL is close to buying IPHI. What are some other potential candidates that likely won’t be around this time next year as they will be acquired. I know you mention DOCU regularly but what are some other likely names?
Thanks again.
Dave

Q: The market is clearly indicating the Rogers Altice bid for Cogeco is not going to be successful. That being said, share price is now only marginally above March lows, so is the stock a buy even without the bid. Good results today with a dividend increase.
Bid is more than 55% above current price with the belief that Rogers and Altice could still come to the table with a further sweetening of the bid and as you often say the chance of the bid being successful is above 0%. Seems like limited downside with the remote possibility of huge upside. Would you buy here?

Q: I own 2500 shares (~CA$136,000) of Nutrien (non-registered account) with an unrealized capital loss of approximately $19,000. To realize this loss, I am planning to sell my position in Nutrien with aim to re-buy after 30 days. In the interim, to maintain weighting in that sector, what suggestions do you have for an economically similar security (or securities)? (My holding is currently in a US$ brokerage account, so would be easiest to switch to another US$ security, although I could journal-entry my shares into the corresponding CA$ account, and sell my NTR shares in CA$, if you suggest a CA$ security[ies].)

Q: In the industrial sector I have a weighting of 19.41%. I know this is over weight, but I like the stocks I own for future growth. For colour I own CAE 3.97% up 14.22% recent addition. EIF 4.31% up 20.31%: TFII 5:47% up 105.97%: : WSP 3.75% up 4.79%:
My concern is with TFII, after reading a copy of the conference call I’m not exactly excited about the future. Seems to be tough sledding from here on.What are your thoughts?
