Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hello Peter and team,
Would you consider Galaxy Digital in the speculative category? The stock has been surging lately but takes a hit at times; however, their numbers look reasonable. Any idea why Trisura is starting to surge? Is it going along with other insurance companies given rise in rates.

Q: Everyone, a year or so ago I asked about investing a small amount of money ($500) in a long shot. You suggested Martello - well I sold out after a 50% loss. Do you have another idea to invest $500, with the thought that I could lose 100% of my investment. Clayton

Q: Thanks for the recent report on FSV. I am attracted to this name, but could never persuade myself to buy because of valuation. I am hopeful that one day I'll pull the trigger.

However, two risks that you mention - somewhat slim margins and low barriers to entry - make me hesitate a bit. In a prolonged bear-market / struggling economy, how would you see FSV perform compared to the competition? Would margins compress even more in that situation, and maybe risk losing major contracts? Or are their competitors weaker in that environment, and perhaps this would provide FSV with an advantage ? Any thoughts on this ?
