Investment Q&A

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

Q: How would you rank these four? Do you see any reason not to invest in any of them (aside from general aversion to small cap)? NYX and FAN are smaller and have been crushed. Is there another gaming stock I should be watching? I like this sector and think now is a good time to invest.

Q: Hi Team
on Aug 17 Tio Networks announced a non-brokered private placement of up to 2 million of common shares priced at $1.08.
This placement has been subscribed to only certain members of Tio's management tream. Proceeds will be used for general working capital purposes.
Can I get your valued opinion on this placement. It it good or bad and as a shareholder would you be concerned?

Q: Suggestion for Pierre.
You need Cdn. a/c & a US a/c.
Purchase a large cap. Cdn interlisted stock such as RY, TD, SU & so on in your Cdn. a/c.
Ask your broker to tfr. the purchased security to your US a/c.
Sell the security in the US a/c. You now have US funds.
There is some mkt. risk but is worth it considering the huge fees saved.
You can also do it gradually to lessen mkt. risk.
Cost is 2 commissions plus mkt. risk.
If you happen to already own an interlited, tfr. to US a/c & sell.

Q: Is the drop in price of CFX sector related or is there more going on here? As you know, there have been plenty of Pulp Mills closed in the last 10-15 years.

Q: Hello team,

I'm interested in your take on the continued sell-off on ATA. The disappointing quarter aside, do you think the softness now speaks to concern about the currency move in China and the ripple effects that would have on North American manufacturing? Is their exposure in Asia and beyond not diversified enough to insulate them for any softness in North America.

Thanks for your insights.

Q: Peter, it was interesting to watch the CEOs of both companies on BNN recently. Both seem like very bright young men although it was far easier to warm to the TCN boss yesterday vs the AVO boss a week or so ago (based upon their demeanours). Is that just them ? or a reflection of how their companies have been performing ?

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

Referencing your last comment on Intertain. Looking at the daily historical data for the past month on the Stockhouse site I would not consider 1.06M as low volume. The reported numbers are the highest daily level in a month. Is there something other than Friday summer trading going on here?

Q: Good Morning Peter, Ryan, and Team,
I purchased shares in Jean Coutu when they got knocked back to under $20. The company has had a decent history of dividend growth and could be considered somewhat safe for an income account. I noticed very recently that you added Andrew Peller to the Income Portfolio and they just reported a pretty good quarter. If you had to choose between the two would you own PJC.A or ADW.A for an income account ??? Thank you very much for your sage advice. DL

Q: I am interested in the lesser followed companies and I think this one would qualify. Could you please give a "mini report" on it. It seems like a nice profitable company. Could this be a way to participate in the US housing recovery? Is it cyclical? Does it have good prospects for growth?
Keep up the good work!!!
