Investment Q&A

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

Q: I own GIB and have for several years. I'm thinking of selling some or all my position in GIB and purchasing OPTEX.
My reasoning is that although GIB may not be fully valued, its had a good run, OPTEX on the other hand may have more upside longer term.
Appreciate your feedback

Q: I am curious about the parameters of "cyclicality" when it comes to different sectors. For example, the chip stocks (including AMAT) are apparently down because of a cyclical decline across them all. In this industry, how long does such a cycle typically run? In comparison, for example, to the commodities cyclicality, which can be many years (I have heard 10-15). Your answer will help me decide whether to take a tax loss on AMAT or hold on for a year or two. Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i,

FTG has had 2 good quarterly releases in a row now. Your last reply to a question re FTG (Oct 9) was just before they released Q3 numbers (Oct 10) (normally a quiet quarter).
Is there anything in their Q3 results to get excited about?
It looks like their transition activities for their last acquisition(s) is finally starting to contribute nicely.
Given the caveat that it is small cap, should one continue to watch this company (in this volatile market) or could one step in for a 1/3 position over the next 30-60 days (considering tax loss seasonality) given the lows of the stock price (down 38% YTD)?
There didn't seem to be much market reaction to the Q3 numbers but that could have been due to the market volatility ....or it simply went unnoticed.

Cheers,
Steve
