Investment Q&A

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

Q: In July 2018 you had a b+ rating, hoping for growth in AUM, and possible acquisitions, can you provide current scorecard on these points please? Opinion on sale of Mutual Fund business to Canoe and how that will effect previous points? Your report was accurate forecasting slow and steady and enjoy the dividend, suppose I'm bored and looking for a reason to not bail and look for more capital appreciation when markets are flying.

Q: A couple of recent question have referred to portfolio allocations. In particular, the reduction for SIS from 4.2% to half that amount causes me some concern as that is a fairly serious adjustment. I tend to follow your BE Portfolio and with 25 holdings, my average weight (full position?) is 4%. So with that in mind, my question is should I adjust my allocations to match those in your portfolio and secondly, are there any positions you would be comfortable either underweighting or underweighting at this time?

Q: Guys - if you had to pick one of these for an RSP which is your favorite for capital appreciation over a 10 year timeline? Would you hold a 5% weighting? If not, what percentage? I have a good tolerance to risk.

Thanks,
Greg.

Q: Doo ---- a darling growth company (great fundamentals, innovation, marketing, worldwide distribution etc. Until August.

In August major owners did something with a big bunch of shares and on no further news I see the stock price on increased volume slowly to slide continuously over the next half year I was expecting some tax loss selling in Dec but do not see any bounce. Can you speculate who is likely doing the extra selling?

Do fundamentals look good enough to raise to 5% ?

Q: Vince Martin, in an article on Seeing Alpha, wrote an extensive article on TSGI as "Cheap for a reason". One main point is they think Stars overpaid for Sky. That acquisition delivered a huge profit about the time of the purchase, and the acquisition would have been profitable if that were normal profit. However government is increasing their take and according to the report, ongoing profits will be challenged to repeat. Have you seen this report, and what do you think? Vince also said that the PE of competitors is also low right now, so they don't compare favorably with the competition.
