Investment Q&A

Q: Hello Peter,
Greenland Renewables results did not seem to be that bad, but during the rally, the stock either stayed the same or declined. Can you comment please? During market call, the manager indicated BEP does not provide good value and feels taking dividends out of cash flow (instead of net income) does not make sense (unless i misunderstood). Also, i plan to hold AQN for dividend for long term and was wondering if that makes sense given your posted comments. Finally, is knight an example of company where one should not rely on past performance of a CEO? Thanks very much

Q: Thoughts on the quarterly report and dividend announcements? Market seems to like the dvidends I supect, but I'm not impressed by the quarterly results.

Q: I found 5i 's recent report on the subject of BoC 2022 Rate Hikes,pause period and pivoting informative. I am assisting our daughter with a mortgage renewal and she has the opportunity of renewing her mortgage at 5.4%,fixed for a 4 year period at this time versus waiting until July 2023. I would appreciate your feedback on this plan.

Q: Morning 5iTeam,
Although David Rosenberg has always been a nay sayer, his recent comments on the economy and equity markets in 2023 were gloomier than usual. What is your take on this? Is there any credence to what he's saying? Maybe he is shorting the markets????
Cheers,

Q: Can you please give me two top picks for the materials sector in both Canada and the US. Also a few thoughts on the reasons for your choices. Thank you.

Q: Hi,
Best tax loss proxies for these four names? Also is there a $ limit to what you should sell for tax loss purposes because its a guarantee. For example, I'm down 15% on KEL but its only a small position. The $ value is only down $2k. So whether the $ loss value is small or not ($2k vs $10k), is it still better off to sell it for the tax loss every year end and move into a proxy name such as TVE? Or is it better just to hold? Thanks!

Q: Goood morning. Thank you for reading my email. I’m looking for Industrial stock suggestions on both the US and Canadian exchanges.

Q: Can you comment on their latest earnings, and why the selloff?

Q: Peter; Minister Joly has basically warned Canadian companies to expect upcoming government positions on China and to be “ clear eyed” when doing business there. Are there any companies, already doing business there, that might be affected? Thanks

Q: Hello,

I need to sell approximately $100,000 from my Unregistered account. I am trying to hold off as long as possible. Looking for your suggestions on which of the listed ETF's I should sell or should I sell a certain percentage from each one given where the market is now and where it might be going? If Industrials or Health care, etc. are projected to go higher then I obviously want to sell out from some other sectors.

Thanks for your great service. It was much easier to stay the course with my diversified portfolio and Portfolio Analytics keeping me on track.

Q: I have capital gains from early in 2022 that can be offset by capital losses. I have losses in the following stocks. Of these pairs which would you sell to offset the gains? UCTT or ASML; CRWD or MAGT; SLF or BNS or POW.

Q: I have held TOY for a number of years. It has been a frustrating ride. They have lots of cash, a great balance sheet and a seeminly strong presence in the toy industry ..... but it never seems to get the same multiples as its peers. Every once in a while it reports a decent quarter or offers encouraging guidance and a twinkle of its potential is shown, but it just never seems to build on the momentum. I hate to be selling TOY "at the bottom" if the pendulum is about to swing back hard, but I am considering selling TOY and increasing my small holding in ECN. ECN seems to be a much more shareholder friendly company with strong management who are seeing their sp under pressure as well. Which do you think has more potential for relatively safe, oversized returns over the next 5 years ? If you have concerns about both, and think there are better alternatives, where would you put your money instead?
Many Thanks

Scott

Q: Hello

Beside Nutrien 3 % in my investments I don't have any stocks in the food Industry. What's your outlook on Premium Brands today, is it a good buy at 80 $ with a 3.6 % dividend. Simply wall st reported today an intrinsic value up to 44 %. If Not do you have better ideas, Loblaws, Restaurant Brands, etc
Thank You so much.

Q: I have significant losses in these companies. I don't need tax losses.
