Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi folks, analysis of Q results for Western Forest. After lengthy strike, 5 year contract in place for labour peace, dividend cut to help balance sheet, etc. Would wef/t now be buy/hold/sell at .80sh. I was lucky & bought/own Wft/t during its selloff so looking at wef/t to compliment wft; lumber/forest stocks all seem to be bouncing off the lows, Merci beaucoup, jb Piedmont QC

Q: Hello team,

Is BUS even worth keeping. Some 14000$ after, I am down 87%. The problem is that it is in an RRSP account and I can wait, but I don't want another CXR. I can still stop another 2K loss on this dog. My real question is about their investability. Who would want this dog? How much debt they have and can they service it until this period is over in the market? What is their backlog like and can they get manage well and stay solvent? The stock was around 0.60$ prior to the recent events, can they make it back there once small caps are back in favour, or something else is fundamentally wrong with them? I can average down a bit from my 1.98$ which I am sure you would reject, but I thought I would ask anyway.

As I said, BUS is in my RRSP and I can wait, but I want to hear your non-emotional assessment and be a forward looking investor instead of clinging to where I was before.

More than two thousands thanks!

Q: Good morning,
Just looking over the real dogs I own and Freshii stands out as one of the baddest dogs of all (I bought it at around $9.00 a few years ago immediately after the investment arm of a certain bank had touted it as an outperformer destined for twice that - within a week it fell 50% and it's just kept right on falling) which leads me to ask: based on the available information what do you see for Freshii over the next 3 years or so? Has it got any future prospects worth waiting for at all, do you think? (My holding is in a reg'd account and is now worth very little so selling doesn't help with taxes and won't free up much cash to put elsewhere - I'm asking more out of interest than out of thinking I can actually accomplish anything with this cur.)
Thanks!
Peter

Please tell me what you can about this small(tiny) US company.
It has had an impressive run and their technology sounds like it has great potential.
Thanks

Q: Hello,

it has been a year since you last commented on Fluor. At the time, it was trading around $30 and had a healthy dividend yield but going through a transition that dropped its share price. Much more has changed recently, including suspension of the dividend May 1. It's now trading under $10.

I'd appreciate hearing your thoughts on it now as a possible recovery play.

Appreciate your insights as always.

Q: Thank you for May 5th report. # 3 states that this may be an opportunity to trim some names that have rallied significantly to reposition into a more conservative large cap portfolio. Could you give some examples of companies that would fall into those categories?
