Q: Hi, Enghouse shares shot up 3% on Tuesday, with large volume. Do you think that shares are being rerated after staying quiet for a long period? I have read your views on the company and it appears that it's one of your longtime favorites (also included in your list of Top 10 companies to own for next 10 years). Is it reasonable to start a new position 1-2%, at current levels ? We also own CSU as a large holding (10%). How does ENGH valuation compare with CSU ? Thank You

Q: Hi Peter and Ryan,
The US stocks are at an all time high and the airstrike occurred. We may see some volatility in the stock market. How do you think about investing in Aerospace and Defense stocks or ETFs? Any specific recommendations?
Thanks,

Q: XIT: We have a very large portfolio made up in RRSP, TFSA, & Non -Registered Accounts (biggest holdings). My investment style over many , many years has been to buy large cap "dividend growing" stocks which have served us incredibly well. Because technology stocks usually trade a high P.E. multiples, most are not dividend growers; but, most of all, the arena can change on a dime - just look at all the tech stocks that have gone bust over the last 20 years or so. In any case, I was thinking of buying XIT to add to our "dividend growers". I already own a small holding in my USD account of IGM.

Q: I have read that investing in AMD seasonally ,from October to April generally results in great returns . I own NVDA which has finally come back to my purchase price due to the Trump/China war. The best performing names are semis that I haven’t heard of . Are Semiconductors best as investments or swing trades ? Do you feel that AMD, INTC will perform better than NVDA .

Q: We have a small 1% weighting in both MU and KEYS and we are thinking of selling MU and buying more KEYS with the proceeds. We already have a 4.2% weighting in NVDA plus substantial positions in CSU, ENGH and SYZ to a lesser degree.
While MU is showing good momentum now it seems to be more cyclical than KEYS. NVDA also seems to be somewhat cyclical, charting similar to MU, at least looking back over 2019. I realize KEYS is much smaller than MU so by switching to KEYS we could be taking on more risk however with a 2% weighting it is maybe not too dangerous.
The other option would be to sell SYZ and use the proceeds to bump up both MU and KEYS. This would reduce our dividend income of course but I think we could manage with less dividend.
Any recommendations?
Your website lists a KEYSW:US without any questions on the stock. Has KEYS sold warrants? I can't find a listing on RBC direct investing.
Thanks,
Jim

Q: I took a 1/2 position in ROKU a couple of weeks ago intending to hold for the long term. I am well represented in the sector already, but it was more of a growth move with some US cash I had sitting there. I'm now down 10% and the CFO has just stepped down, so I'm wondering if I should just cut my loss and wait to see what it does in the next few months, or if you think there is still good reason to hold. Thak-you!
