Investment Q&A

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

Q: Patrick Horan was on BNN yesterday morning. He indicated that he had done considerable DD when deciding whether or not to participate in the IPO. Recognizing that the retail sector is tough these days, his conclusion was that $12 was too expensive, however, if it subsequently dropped to $10, he would be much more interested as there certainly is value at this price. Your thoughts?

Q: Could you give me your assessment on ETI (Enviroleach Tech) and JBL (Jabil Inc). I just watched a segment on BNN Commodities today and found the discussion on E-waste enviromental processing very interesting. JBL is currently building a new processing plant for ETI in Memphis. And E-waste is becoming a major problem for the world.

Thank you.

Q: I sold yesterday half our position which was in a rsp, now we have an amount equal in a cash account representing 1.5 % of our portfolio. I see the stock is up today another 3% on low volume, no news except this marijuana growing joint venture a couple month ago. Do you know if there is insider buying?
I am tempted to cash out. your advice is always precious.
Thank you.

Q: Hi,
I have a fairly balanced long term outlook portfolio. Many of the stocks are safe(r) growth stocks with all drips being used. I am looking to deploy a few thousand $$ for a cheaper, riskier, high growth stock. What would your few (3-5) favorites be for this? Please rank them in order of preference and likely potential growth.

Thanks

Q: I am for the most part a conservative investor. The captioned equities form part of my high risk and in this case, high loss casino money portion of my portfolio.

Individually, none are material holdings and being in my TFSA provides no tax selling benefits. I periodically check similar high risk positions I sold and in some cases, more patience would have yielded high returns! Benj Gallander is a rather unique investor; his patience is what catches my attention and his results are not shabby!

Assuming I am willing to be very patient with no time horizon, is there any reason to believe any of these stocks are worth keeping for high returns? It is not a question of getting my capital back, rather should I hold them or move on to other high spec ideas? If time to move on, any bottom fishing ideas especially as we move into tax loss trolling in this segment of the market?

I appreciate the insight you provide to the more macro aspects that often are the prime focus of my questions. Your responses to all questions are very educational and informative. They make us all far better investors.

Thank you

Mike
