Investment Q&A

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

Q: I note your recent comments on the risks associated with the present contracts for NIF but my understanding from one of the noted brokerages is that the Co has a "break up" value of somewhere between 3.50 and 5.00, which of course is well ahead of the current pricing and worth a wait for this to be realized. Could you comment please. Thank you.

Q: You noted recently that CHW was sensitive to interest rates but otherwise was doing well. The share price also looks as though it could be stabilizing so in a rising rate/economic environment how much of a problem are interest rates? I would have thought that lease rates were relatively flexible and could adjust to accommodate the effects of an improving business environment resulting in an overall improvement in profitability. Would you like to revisit this issue? Thank you.

Q: Thanks for the small cap suggestions yesterday. I was also thinking of a 10I position in Cara, Mighty Foods, or Restaurant Brands International. I would appreciate your answer based on the fundamentals for a minimum 24 month hold. I also know Cara's board has had some issues re: directors as insiders and objectivity going forward.
Thanks again.

Q: Hi guys
I should have added one of these about 2 years ago but unfortunately did not. Looking at their trading price today, and as a long term hold for at least 5 years which stock would you buy today. Looking at about a 4% weight in a diversified portfolio.
