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. I am at a 47% loss in a registered account. It now is only a small percentage. Might it be a good idea to sell and circle back in about a year. What could be a better replacement?
Also January often tells us what kind of an investing year we will have as does the 2nd year of a presidency. What are your thoughts? It appears to be setting up for a tough year.
Thank you for your guidance as always

Q: Looking to take advantage of the pullback in growth names. The names above are standing out to me as companies that have been beaten up and 'may' offer a good short term bounce as well as long term potential. Is this a buying opportunity for those listed above? Are there other names you would suggest and could you rank them please? I am a fairly aggressive long term investor with an otherwise diversified portfolio.

Q: Which consumer staple / defensive stocks would you recommend and why. (I already hold Alimentation-Couche Tard and will continue to hold this one.)

Also own Proctor & Gamble and OK to trade this one in an RRSP.
Really want something for 10 years and not to worry about ups and downs of market but happy to look at something of good value currently.
Please choose any of the above or another choice. Safety and sleep at night are priorities. Please Rank for me excluding ATD.

Thank you 5i.

Q: CSTL has doubled their sales force, advanced commercialization of its flagship DecisionDx-Melanoma test, and they acquired Cernostics - an early-stage diagnostic company, plus they have $300 mil in cash. The stock price is off 70% on a company that looks to have sold fundamentals. Could I have your assessment of this being a buy scenario?

I am a value investor with some growth positions LSPD, LNS). Having learned from LSPD I trimmed some Leon's. The yield of ZIM seems excessive but the company has been improving over the years, dept is improving and it is showing a profit. Is the yield sustainable? Does it fir a profile as a value investor with 10 year outlook in need of industrials and global invesment?
Thank you
