Investment Q&A

Q: Could you explain why, you would or would not, add to a partial position in Revolve, now, as a reopening play?

Q: Hello Peter and team,
I hold TSLA in my TFSA. The company has announced that it will do another stock split via stock dividend. Do most companies issues splits via stock dividends? I was wondering if the stock split via stock dividends has any impact on TFSAs other than having additional shares. Thanks very much.

Q: I am considering purchasing this stock. Do you like it? Any comments that you have on this security would be appreciated or is there another stock in this sector you would prefer. Thank You.

Q: It has been a couple of years since you commented on this company. It seems to hit all the right notes with high ROE, decent dividend growth, low debt although revenue growth isn't high and analysts don't seem to be enamoured with it currently.

Comments?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: Based on current valuations, irregardless of sector weightings, what are your favourite top 5 US growth stocks for a 10 year timeline.

Thanks,

Q: Questions about Disney appear fairly regularly. The answers in the last few months remain fairly positive, but I thought to check in on your current thoughts.

I can't understand the P/E, your company report shows it at 81.9. Can you verify that and offer any suggestion why it is so high?

I wonder about some potential headwinds, including continued Covid (less travel); a recession (less holiday spending); inflation (price hikes for their theme parks + cruises); recent labour / political issues (Florida); being ahead of their sales. And who knows what else?

I am down a fair bit after buying 8 months ago and am getting impatient. I am thinking of selling my position in DIS and moving to TT, one of your long time favourites. If it were you, would you make this move or hang on to DIS. And why, either way.

Thanks much for your excellent service.

Q: After today's announcement (Mitek purchases HooYu) I am considering bringing my holding up to a full position. Could you speak to this acquisition, also update on the progress Mitek is making in market advantages and profitability? Is it a buy currently?

Q: Good morning, what is your view on the reported security breach? Would you add to an existing position, sit tight and hold, or sell?

Q: What are your thoughts on buying OKTA? The recent hack seems like it could be a short term problem but Yahoo Finance shows their earning estimates dropping quite a lot over the last 90 days, which concerns me. Thanks.

Q: Hi gang, my question has to do with Costco's valuation. Can you please give me your quick and dirty evaluation for a long term hold? Also I'm seeing different p/e numbers, your page shows 27 while G&M shows 44. As for dividend, they seem to do a special dividend every few years, what is your view of a pending one soon.

Thx.

Q: As an addendum to my question re ZIM with holding tax, what is your opinion of this stock?
Is it a decent investment?

Q: I had taken an initial position with BRK.B during the March 2020 market drop at a purchase price of $188. The stock has continued to appreciate. Is it too late add another third to my position?

What is the teams opinion of ESLT compare to the other majors in this field. Also please include thoughts on LMT, GD,RTX, and the TSX traded MAL.

Q: I own 18 US Stocks and have losses in the following 6:

1) D.R. HORTON is down 13%
2) ULTRA CLEAN HOLDINGS is down 23%
3) CROCS is down 43%
4) QUIDEL is down 47%
5) CO-DIAGNOSTICS is down 59%
6) FULGENT GENETICS is down 11%

My Portfolio is 20% in cash so I can take advantage when a particular stock is down for no good reason.

All the above are small holdings, and therefore I am able to easily lower the % loss by adding to my holdings, and hoping that once the market recovers, I can sell them for a smaller loss.

Which of the above would you add, and your reasons why ?

Which of the above would you sell, and the reasons why ?

Thank You.

Thank you as always.
