Investment Q&A

Q: If you held CNR shares, would you continue to hold considering the recent weakness?

Q: Hello,

Can you comment on CAE earning? Also, what is your opinion on HIVE?

Thank you very much!

Q: Currently own CNR and am concerned about the KCS merger. Do you think the share price can recover IF the merger is approved? What if its not approved? Some major share holders think that CNR is taking a large risk and are over-paying/ My understanding is this decision could take up to a year to be decided. Would you SELL CNR and move to CP while this sorts out (no impact tax wise) or continue to HOLD until things get a little clearer to shareholders.
Thanks for your thoughts

Q: Lumber futures are in a bear market now. Would you think the lumber trade is over? is something worse going on with WEF then compared with other lumber companies?

Q: Hi group why do you continue to recommend LUN I bought it 3 mths ago for the copper play and so far is is not performing well as copper continues to rise. looks like a sell to me

Also can you shed any light on lumber prices it has been dropping like a stone is the sector consolidating or is the drop the real deal. WEF has been hit particularly hard any idea why Thanks for your guidance

Q: I just took a position in NTR because of the recent high prices for crops (corn and such) under the thought that this should drive demand as the farmers should have more cash and a reason to increase acreage planted. Is this a reasonable thought process. If you look at NTR as a trading stock what are the things to look out for to realize the ballgame is almost over and how early (what inning) is it now.

Q: YTD, CNR is down about 8 % yet CP is up 9 %. They are both in bidding war. Why such a discrepancy in YTD performance? What is the market seeing?

Q: In a growth orientated TFSA I hold Real that I am tempted to sell and replace with Nuevi is this a good idea? (Oddly Real is up today and Nuevi is down)

Q: Both (pho) Photon Control & (ish) Inner Spirit have recently become companies of merger. MKSI to buy all shares of PHO & SNDL to buy all shares of ISH.

Would you suggest continue holding these shares of PHO & ISH to become shares of the new companies. Or would it be better to sell now at the higher share value before the mergers are complete?

Thank You

Q: interfor is putting out a special 2.00 dividend. Do you think it would be a good time to buy this stock and what is the outlook for the future.

Q: As I write this, Friday mid afternoon, all of the markets are sharply higher. Gains seem to be pretty much across the board. I like to look at outliers that are bucking the trend. There are a few stocks that you have been optimistic about that are actually down today. Wondering if any of these are not as favoured by the market, given their performance today. Perhaps issues with recent results. Understanding that you can't read too much into one day's trading, but several of these have dropped quite a bit lately, and I'm wondering what your current feelings would be on buying these today for a long term hold in a diversified portfolio. Would you give each a rating from 1 to 10 as to how strongly you would want each of these in a portfolio? BYD, CSU, CTS, DOO, DND, ENGH, LNF, PBH, REAL, STC.

Q: On May 6 BIP released great earnings results (in my opinion). There has since been heavy selling pressure. Why does a stock sell off after releasing good earnings results and will BIP rebound?

Thanks

Q: I have very significant losses on these stocks, 45-55%. Are any worth holding for recovery? Your assessment of the potential and problems for each, please.

Q: All these CAD stocks have been severely hurt today, do you know the reasons why? True that some have had worst than expected earnings releases but it looks like there has been a wholesale seller out there

Q: Hi team, I have a couple of questions.

First, looking into an unseen future, what are the odds of DOL and ECN being acquired? And which companies would be interested in acquiring them?

Second, I am looking to buy MG but I don't have any free cash available. Would need to sell one of my tech holdings.(CSU, SHOP, KXS, LSPD) My gut tells me to sell KXS.
Would like to get a second opinion.

Thank you.
