Q: Hello Your A rating and recent report on Cineplex using the word "Monopoly" got me interested in the Sector. Would purchasing shares in AMC Entertainment be worse, equal to, or better than buying Cineplex given the lower valuation of AMC and scale that AMC has? ceteris paribus on the dividends and exchange risk aside. Thanks very much

Q: Hello guru's,

I currently hold equal weight in ATD.B and L. Both are off a bit, but no concerns. Question- is there any point in consolidating to one security or it is it preferable to remain diversified.

Bonus question, I have ZCL, OTEX and GSY and are all down 10%. I am underweight in KXS,NFI and SJ. Do you see any point in moving into the underweight stocks, at the cost of the trading fees, in the hope that there is any upside.

I have no problem waiting out an upturn in the market, how ever long that takes.

Thanks as always.

KC

Q: Although Mullen share prices are weak currently and the PE ratio is about 34 it seems that the Mullen Group (MTL) is optimistic about its own future with recent acquisitions and substantial stock purchases by the president and a director in Mid-May. It seems that the company has diversified to some degree away from the oil and gas sector although still quite dependent on performance of the sector.
I value very much your opinion of the future for this company over both the short term (1 year or so) and long term (5+ years) as represented by its stock price and dividend growth.
Thank you very much, Ed

Q: Hello 5i, I'm a growth oriented investor with a broad diversified portfolio.
I have a full position in Transforce (TFII). I'm currently down 15% and thinking what I can currently do to increase my overall rate of return. In your professional opinion, would you suggest myself to sell TFII, take the loss and redeploy and invest in a similar company such as CNR? and or, invest in something in a different sector that would possibly produce more growth such as AMZN, BABA, GOOGL, for and within an investment time frame of 2 years. Please feel free and suggest any companies that you would recommend now for growth. Thank you for your excellent service.

Q: Hi
I try to assess companies by their earnings and have a decent position in BAM.A
Why do you think the share price has gone up 15% YTD given poor earnings the last two quarters along with declining ROE and ROIC?
Do you think the share price will subsequently fall?

Q: Good morning gents,

Please forgive me if this question is out of bounds.

Currently started my investment career in April. I have all stocks in the Beport covered to a T. I also hold a large holding in CNR form employee share plan which is double the Beport holding, 400K. I am looking at the growth portfolio and don't know if I am extending myself to thin.

I was interested in a 50k start and was wondering if this is appropriate given the amount I have in equities.

I have a 5 yr timeline to retirement with a decent pension plan. Thanks for the terrific insight to a formerly very cautious, see bank account investor. Risk level has gone from scared sh-tlless to moderately confident.

If this is two cumbersome or difficult. a question please disregard.
