Investment Q&A

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

Q: I sold dol recently. I'm down 8% on ccl and 5% on pbh. Both have been week lately which is driving crazy while the US markets grow. I'm tempted to sell these 2 and replace with ba, ita, grub.

Your thoughts please.

Q: So what do we do with Linamar. Do we hold it or sell? I had assumed with the agreement on trade between USA and Canada that the stock would be a good company to own. Not so it seems. Any idea why? Is it a concern that we are nearing the end of the automobile cycle and earnings will start to trend down? There is a thought that we are in the last inning for companies such as Magna and Linamar . Do you concur? Anyway the stock seems to be unloved, not sure why . Perhaps you can shed some light on this. How do you see earnings over the next 2 years?

Q: I am interested in the cyclicality of this sector, not necessarily seasonal issues, and curious as to the reasons for the pullback in these and I gather other US issues. Can you comment please and provide the names of four or five other major gaming companies. Is there an ETF which represents the sector? Thank you

Q: Hi Guys,

I mentioned to a friend of mine about your great service as he complained how his mutual funds have gone nowhere in the last 5 years with all the fees. He has signed up for your service and was wondering how would be the best way to utilize your service, he is 50 year old business owner and busy being a soccer Dad, should he divide his money in your 3 portfolios or simply look to go for a 60/40 split with 60 in your balanced portfolio and 40 in bonds. He did mention he had an interest in ETF, any thoughts how he can put his money to work over the next year. Thanks Anthony
