Investment Q&A

Q: I am starting an RESP fund for my new son (initial investment maxed at $5000). I would like to begin with a somewhat aggressive growth-seeking small portfolio, and to then gradually add one or two stocks each year for diversification up to about 8 or 10 stocks in total. For my opening purchase, I am considering three stocks -- Kinaxis (KXS), Constellation (CSU), and Knight Therapeutics (GUD). Two questions: This seems to be a decent time to buy these particular stocks, would you agree? And would you replace any these stocks with any others? (I'm open to anything growthy, but have been considering Shopify (SHOP), Photon Control (PHO), Enghouse (ENGH).) Thanks, and great job.
PS: Should I wait to buy until a few days after the BoC rate decision, or has the market reaction more or less already played out?

Q: I own FGD and I have made money by selling this stock quite a few times at different prices as high as 90 cents. I currently own 14000 shares which is about 3.5% of my portfolio and I am down 25%. When the price was higher the stock dod not make much revenue and the income was very low. The sales have been growing rapidly and the company is net income positive. Why would the stock tank when the news are actually more positive than before. The last time they issued stock was at 70 cents and the stock is trading at 44 cents. What are your views on this investment. Do you think it has potential like TNC. Thanks

Q: Stocks in your model portfolios. TNC - when is this takeover going to be completed? It seems like it is taking a long time.
ITC - this stock is the majority of the time under $2.00 and for the short period of time that it goes above $2.00, everyone hits the sell button and it goes back below $2.00. Should I be hitting the sell button the next time it gets over $2.00 because it is the worst performing stock in my portfolio. PEO - also has over the last two months been another under-performer and so should I get out of it? Thank you for your good service Dennis.
