Investment Q&A

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

Q: I have a question about Shopify US. Due to price drop in Shopify shares, I sold off 100 shares yesterday morning to maintain profits. I am still holding 50 Shares that I purchased the end of August for 394.00. With yesterday's offering which looks like it will reduce price further, would you advise to sell and buy back at what would hopefully be lesser price or just ride it out.? Thank you.

Q: As the SOXX, iShares PHLX Semiconductor ETF is approaching it's all time high, PHO is bouncing along close to it's 52 week low. I understand the lag in spending from the semi companies showing up in PHO earnings, though it seems to me investors are paying up for forward earnings in semi companies but not PHO? Are similar companies to PHO experiencing the same fate or is this company specific? Do you have examples of similar companies to share?

Q: could you give me more details about how these debentures work?
with a price around 129 $, what is the current yield?
Are they trading is US or CAD ?
I understand that at the end of march of each year the company can announce that they redeem them in a 5 year period. Hypothetically, lets say I buy them today at 129$ and on March 31th 2020 they announce the will rebuy them (at par, so @100$ ) in march 2025. What would be the reaction of the market on the next day. Would the price slowly goes down on a 5 year period ?
What influence the debenture price ? (how CSU is going, interest rate, something else)?
I also have 5 % in my portfolio in CSU, if I had debentures up to 5 %, would you see that as a concentration risk ?
Would you have a few similar products to suggest in other quality companies ?

Q: Hello Team,
Made money with many recommendations but couple of tsunami like COV and TSGI wipe off most of the gain. How could I have managed better in terms of adhering to 5i advise and holding on to these losers longer than should have been? now these two stocks off the charts from the portfolios.
hope this will help many other members who are in the same boat as I am.
Thanks
