Investment Q&A

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

Q: Could you please outline the main risks to Dream Industrial REIT. I am also confused because over 2.5 years their P/E has gone from 4 to 24, yet their stock price has dropped (~$16 to $13) and their earnings have increased (as I understand it). Please correct me if I am wrong. Also, do I have it right that their NAV is ~$17? Do you know their average interest costs and if/when that might increase significantly? Other than those debt questions, and the sector, I'm wondering what I'm missing with this stock continuing to drop. Thank you.

Q: Not sure if I understand correctly the transactions by insiders during the last few months. The corporation has bought and sold large amounts of shares. Individuals have bought and sold some as well. Looking at the overall number of shares traded I am not so sure that the result is positive. A second question is about the forcasts for next year (02/25) profit more than double. Is that realistic in your opinion and if so the stock is currently selling at 13 X next year's PE. I'm underwater in a registered account so no tax selling benefit. Buy more ? Wait for the next earnings release?

Thank you for your great advise.

Q: KXS has been a slow mover the past while. At its current rate, its slowly moving towards its yearly low. I see then ast report dates back to Nov 2022. Can you provide a quick assessment as to strengths, weaknesses and what you see going forward 1, 2 and farther out? Are there any threats/risks that might arise? Is it still one of your top picks?

Q: How would you rank these three companies as to best value, moat, and revenue growth over the next 3 -5 years? I'm leaning toward Descartes Systems but their P/E is fairly high compared to peers and the industry. Thanks.

Q: Thx for the heads up on CLS in early May. Looking at insider buying by CEOs and CFOs do you see anything of interest at present? Anything of interest from the growth porfolio with significant insider buying?

Thx

Q: Over close to ten years the balanced portfolio on 5i has generally outperformed the growth portfolio. The five year rate of return as of September 2023 is better. Can you comment on the numbers please.

Q: What are your thoughts on BIR? It has lagged for the year and more so over
the past month. The dividend is in question, I recall $70 oil and $3 gas covers it. Is there any rationale to it being in question?

The other news I see is a new CEO coming in Jan, any thoughts on this?

Would you buy in here or would it be safe to wait for tax loss selling later in the year?

Q: Hi Team,
I am down 20% with BCE and 19% with ENB. Would this be a good time to crystallise my capital loss?
Do you see a short term rebound?
If I sell, would you be re-entering these two after the 30 days or move to something else?
Thanks
