Investment Q&A

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

Q: I am deciding which one to buy. There is a $2.00 premium for BAMR which is one to one exchangeable with BAM. But my thinking is that BAMR might have more growth as a new company trying to reach a certain scale. I like the (Re) insurance business. There are other considerations such as valuation, stock correlation, market float etc which I appreciate your comments on. Which would you buy? Thanks Derek

Q: Good Morning Peter & Team,

Morgan Stanley called MG an auto supplier standout. MG reports first week November. Are you able to give us an idea what to expect? Positive or Negative???? ... considering the supply chain concerns (now [hopefully] waning) and of course the ongoing chip shortage.

Thanks for all you do

Q: According to gsy news release gsy owns 1123570 shares of afrm. At 141 per afrm share that’s 158 million USD
Questions
1- how is that accounted for in the financial statement
2- I assume the forfeiture part means if paybright does not hit targets then gsy forfeits the 468k shares
3- is the market even reflecting this in gsy share price





ii) 655,416 common shares of Affirm, and iii) 468,154 common shares of Affirm held in escrow and subject to forfeiture if certain PayBright revenue milestones are not met

Q: Hi 5i,
Looking through the last 5 years, it appears that the typical dividend from LNF bounces between $0.12 and $0.16.

How do you feel about their recent special dividend of $1.41? I would've expected them to reinvest most of this to help grow further or slightly increase their dividend going forward.

I would have also assumed that this special dividend would have sent their stock price higher as a reflection of their current strength but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Q: Hi Peter,
I have been holding onto DND. After the news on the decision to remain a public company, I was glad indeed at the decision made.
If management was willing to take the company private at $50.50 and now the committee that was formed decided that there is more value over and above the $50.50, I am surprised that the stock is selling off . It’s actually now on sale as far as I am concerned and I have been happily adding to my position.
Could I get your thoughts?
Thanks

Q: Thank you for your very appreciated service.

My question is, how can an investment in financial services like SLF be bullish when bond rates go up. My understanding is that the value of the bonds held will decline in such a scenario so SLF's balance sheet will be negatively impacted as well. Enlighten me, how does SLF benefit from a rising interest rate environment?

Q: The stock price for AT has been falling. Do you have any reasons for it? I own a small position at much higher price. Could you please share your opinion whether this stock is sell, hold or buy? Thanks for you input.
