Investment Q&A

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

Q: Your recent inclusion of the stock to the growth model tweaked my interest. The company was unknown to me. A q and a search showed that you have been positive on this company for a while. I checked out the charts. A two year chart shows a nice saucer and handle (consolidation) formation (though the handle a bit extended) through 2022 and mid 2023 and then the breakout. In July/August price jumps from, in round numbers, $27 to $37. October sees a 20% sell off but then there is a quick rebound back to the 37ish level (very positive). My question is, are you aware of any fundamental reason for the price increase in July/August? I have not been able, through my limited resources, to find one.
Thank you
Neil

Q: I own a couple of banks, SLF and MA in my financial allocation. Thinking of adding GSY or BN. I know there different in size, but GSY probably offers more growth.

Would you be comfortable adding GSY with a 3-5 year time commitment, or is BN the better choice?

Q: Hi !

I am looking for an industrial stock for my TFSA. Strong growth in a short period of time is the objective.

What do you think of Target Hospitality (th-q), Vertiv (vrt-n), Preformed Line (plpc-q), MDA Ltd (mda-t), Doman Bldg (DBM-t) ?

Any other suggestion ?

Gratefully yours,

JD IDS

Q: I hold a basket of small, speculative tech stocks, each with a small investment only in my TFSA. Those listed above are down significantly in value and I wonder whether any are worth continuing to hold? I would appreciate your views.

Q: Can you please comment on ECN's recent quarter which the market does not seem to like. Are you still positive on the name, and if so why and if not, why not. Finally, on a scale of 1-10, (10 being your top picks) for small cap Cnd growth names, where in the pack would ECN fall. They treated me very well for the first few years but have struggled after the special dividend and I am now worried that my expectation that they repeat their previous performance may be ill placed.

Thanks for the objective view

Q: Hi There, regarding ECN and your recent comments, so I take it you are willing to hang on for a few more quarters then? I know you’ve always spoken highly of Steve Hudson and his abilities. Also didn’t they give notice earlier this year about a “Special Review” or has this come and gone with no results?

Ok thanks!
