Investment Q&A

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

Q: A recent article by Thane Stenner in ROB suggests private equity as a natural hedge to swings in public equity and that the "smart money" which he implies is High Net Worth individuals are shifting more assets to private from public. For someone who is presently an aspiring member to the HNW club what would you suggest to participate in this area? I am currently holding both OCX and BAM, and looked at CVG (too illiquid), all of which have some fingers in this pie. Thanks, J.

Q: What do you think of the earnings? They seem to never be consistant!?
They reiterated 2016 guidance of $1.31 FCFPS, that's a 16% FCF yield, pretty rare, no? They bought 11M shares last yr and are planning to buy another 11M in 2016. The market is obviously currently valuing it as a value trap, could it be wrong? Thanks

Q: Hi there

I have held Shawcor through the downturn and have a long term view on my investments - I can wait a few years for recovery. Just wondering given the poor outlook from the company for the next year and the poor outlook on the sector whether its valuation reflects this. Would it be a hold here or would you move on. I do think they have a bit of a unique boring business - a bit like Stella which I also hold.

Thanks

Stuart
