Investment Q&A

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

Q: As a pensioner, I just came into $150K of "extra" money that I would like to invest in the 5 year and more time frame. (I'm optimistic). I would like 6 names you can recommend within the following framework.
1. Must be TSE listed company.
2. Much of the income must be from outside of Canada.
3. Must be in the top tier of stable companies.
4. Should be growth rather than dividend focused.
Three "ideal" investments I have in mind is TD, MG, and BAM.A. So along this line, what can you recommend? Thank You.

Q: Hi there, can you please comment or provide analysis on how CXR, IT, AYA and others within the portfolios would be affected due to the Brexit vote coming up soon, considering revenues from European region and due to FX? I believe Brexit vote may be causing stock price weakness for CXR, maybe? Also, would anyone want to take out CXR before the Brexit vote knowing how volatile Europe would be if England exited? Thanks!

Q: Any thoughts on why BAM.A is down so much lately (especially today). BAM.A seems more volatile than it's holdings (BIP, BPY, etc.). Am I correct on this, and if so, can you explain why it is more volatile. Thanks.

Q: Where do you see the greatest risk to equity and bond investments?
1. High inflation caused by economic growth finally putting to work all the money that was printed by central bank quantitive easing around the world; or,
2. Deflation caused by slow growth due to unfavourable demographics and financial deleveraging by consumers.

What would you recommend as the best defense in each of these scenarios?
Thanks,
