Investment Q&A

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

Q: I'm interested in taking a position in Photon Controls. Can you confirm my calculations that they have 30 cents per share in cash?

Also, is there anything in the earnings report that raises any red flags for you?

And do you have the same level of confidence in the company, after reading their earnings report that you had 24 hours ago?

Q: In your reply to Jeff you said that TOY did not quantify exposure to Toy R Us,& yet it said no carryover impact into 2019.In my humble opinion,Toy must know the potential loss.I wonder what is the impact on its share price,which has already dropped from $61.76(new high) to current $54.34.When is a good entry point? Thanks for u usual great services & views.

Q: Hi 5iR, This is not a question just a comment on TOY. 5iR I think you need to adjust your thinking on TOY. An increasing number of kids today do not play with toys. They play with their devices. As a grandparent I watch my grandchildren spend hours on their devices, not toys....it drives me nuts...... Since TOY is not in the software business, I would be a seller of TOY not a buyer. Cheers, Chris

Q: What are your thoughts on selling WSP Global for Savaria?
Looking for more dividend growth (revenue and earnings as well).
WSP's earnings didn't look as good as Savaria's did.
Thank you,
Adam

Q: Good morning Peter, Ryan & Team,

I am looking at my international and american exposure. Can you give me a rough idea about what percentage of companies in the balanced portfolio have american and international exposure and how significant it is? Does that typically play to your portfolio country allocation? For example, I have 20% american equities, but X percentage of Canadian equities from the balanced portfolio get the majority of their revenue from the US, would you consider that a (20 + x) american exposure?

Thanks for your time,

Wes

Q: Do you take downgrades with a grain of salt. There are constantly companies being downgraded. Does that mean if I hold a downgraded stock get rid of it because it isn't going to do much or when it goes down buy more? I hold TOY a recent downgrade and it has dropped off some - buy more, sell? Thank you very much Dennis
