Investment Q&A

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

Q: CXR has lots of headwinds (brexit, pricing environment, debt levels, questions about their business model, etc). if debt level is one of the biggest headwinds the company faces, and current cash flow will take years to pay down debt, is it possible the company issues shares, even at this really reduced price, to pay down debt?

Q: i read every question and answer everyday and 3 of your favorite companies and 3 companies you continually recommend are shopify, knight and kinaxis.i am overweight all 3. and all 3 are in your model portfolios.
we know knight is protected by its huge cash balance and once it is gone the parameters would change hopefully for the better depending how goodman spends it.
you keep making reference to shopify and kinaxis being expensive, earnings for both aug.3 and aug 4. my question is anything that i should be aware of before earnings. dave

Q: Hope this falls within the scope of your Q & A:

Retired couple, defined pension plan providing coverage for living expenses. Also good real estate assets, including rental property.

Looking for additional income to "indulge" .... possibly even buy that little sports car that I wish I had bought 40 years ago :) ...

Have $500K in RIF. Own most of all your portfolios and a number of other stocks.
Objective to re-structure my portfolio so that it reflects: 50% Income, 30% Balanced and 20% Growth.
I would appreciate your top suggestions from each of your portfolios to achieve this target. The intention is to then review and edit our overall portfolios based on this input.

Thanks so much for your help.

Q: Hello Peter
I am currently down about 30% on MG which is 5% of my portfolio.
I hold 60% of MG in unregistered account & 40% of MG in my TFSA acct.
My concern is would it be wise to sell it now and buy instead NFI or SIS and if so which one would you prefer first NFI or SIS, which one has more "growth" left.

Thanks for great service!

Q: Hi Peter
Don't publish this if you don't think it is appropriate.

Last night I went to the Cineplex and bought tickets for the new Tarzan movie. It was in 3-D and had the new D-Box technology. The two tickets cost $43.00 without food or drink.
I found the seat jerking up and down and sideways very annoying. Probably just me, but if anyone is thinking of investing in the technology they should go try it out first. Luckily I could turn it off. Good, fun movie otherwise.

Q: I realize these two companies are very different, but both have had a nice share price reduction recently (well, nice if you're a potential buyer!). Straight-up question: Which would you choose for a better TOTAL return over a 5 - 10 year time frame?
And do you see a material difference in net risk between the two over such a time frame? Thanks!
