Investment Q&A

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

Q: As I watch the growth stocks in my portfolio get crushed I can't help but also feel excited at the buying opportunities that are being created for others I thought I had missed. With the Nasdaq only 1200 points off its high and companies like TWST (down 57%), LMND (down to 60%) or BOMN (down 50%) or NVTA (down 55%) it is undeniable that many of these stocks have been revalued.

My question pertains both to these specific companies and smaller caps in general. Do you think companies like these are close to finding a floor meaning that it is time to start buying in tranches as they inch down or do you consider it more likely that we need a major sell off and full capitulation?

With these specific companies, what would be an entry price that makes sense for each for the first 1/2 and then a full position. (ie buy a 1/2 of LMND at 75 and then full at 60 if it gets there).

Q: AVEO Oncology share price jumped after it got FDA approval for
FOTIVDA® (tivozanib) around 2 months ago. It ramped up for this by securing capital, and issued new equity, @ $ 8.00 which was fully subscribed, including all offered additional shares. New Director appointed who seems to be quite an authority on cancer research.

Unfortunately. the Share price dropped after the spike on approval, and has fallen back to old levels. what seems to be the problem ? When do you think, if at all, the price will reach the lofty levels recommended by the Analysts covering it.

Thanks and Appreciate all the advise and guidance you and your team provides.

Q: I am looking to expand my portfolio in the area of shipping/tankers. I like ATCO due to it's connection with Seaspan and my understanding that containers will be in demand once the economy picks up. I believe they have also recently finalized a contract to build an ice breaker. It also provides a dividend. DAC is the largest of the four and is container based as well and the most expensive of the four. SBLK is mostly dry goods like grains and coal with ties to South America and China and has seen some decent gains recently. HMLP is an LNG carrier and also provides a dividend. I can see advantages to all four but wondering if you could provide any insight or preferences to ranking and how you arrived at those rankings. Thanks very much. Enjoy the service and your insights.

Cheers,
Kevin

Q: Hi,
I understand PRTS had earnings and judging by the market reaction, would assume the results were very good, but I am not well versed in parsing out fundamentals, so am concerned that today's jump in price may be just a bit of buying caused by short covering? If you can add any comments that would help to shine a realistic light on PRTS and its longer term potential, I would appreciate it!
Thanks!

Q: Good day, I’m thinking with the better exchange rate of late, it would be a good time to buy more US shares inside a tfsa. We are very diversified across all accounts. Looking for some ideas. What are some growth names you would buy today? Already own most big tech, but would have no problem adding to them. Thanks so much as always

Q: Hi,
I am aware these companies are mentioned, often in a positive light, fairly often in your Q&A section. To be honest, I struggle with what you might be seeing that apparently investors don't seem to be aware of, as these have all sold off quite a bit recently. I am interested in whether or not you still feel as positive on these companies now, as you may have in the past. U gapped down in Feb by about 15% and has since dropped about 40% more. VEEV is probably down about 23% from its Feb high, and ROKU about 37% during the same period. I understand there has been a rotation away from tech but these strike me as having a very long way to crawl back up, even though I understand earnings haven't been all that bleak. Am I missing something here? I would be very interested in your thoughts and these and any others you feel might be really under priced lately!
Thanks!
Dawn
