Investment Q&A

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

Q: I have been following CVS for several years now, and currently hold a half position. During the past Q they were able to top analyst estimates for both revenue and EPS. They are also paying down their debt due to the purchase of Aetna. What do you think of their future prospects as a dividend income investment with some stock price appreciation?

Q: Hi 5i,

What are your thoughts on both Corning and retractable technologies?
The thought would be to invest in companies that have to deliver the vaccine. Would you consider these a buy and if so, what would be your target price for each.

Q: Hello Peter, many individual investors (certainly I) have terrible timing on their transactions. For example, if one has been following Becton Dickinson, looking to buy, one might be happy to see this morning's 8% drop and immediately place their order. How do you handle this type of situation? Wait and see where the dust settles? Jump on the 'new lower price'? Or wait some days or weeks to see a base and an upturn? Would you be comfortable buying BDX today, for the long term?

Q: Hi there,

Can I please have your opinion on the results of these 3 companies? I know you are a big fan of them - particularly AYX and TTD.

Thanks

Q: Hello 5i,
What did AYX report that was so bad? Is a 20% price adjustment, in after hour session, in the normal range for a $11 b market cap? Should folks adjust growth expectations on this one? And finally, would you still see it as a hold for a growth pick in a tfsa after this report?
Many thanks,

Q: Hi 5i,

I am Canadian and I have purchased BRK.B around few months ago around US$180. However, it doesn't move up much and seem like underperform.
Do you think BRK.B is undervalued stock and it will catch up better performance in 2020 since APPL just released an outstanding report. The reason I asked because I am thinking to sell some of them to buy APPL. However, I don't want to change back to Canadian dollar, the Canadian dollar was lowest ever during the time I purchased BRK.B. Now I am facing the currency risk and slow moving up price for BRK.B. In your opinion, should I keep it and wait for long time until it offset the currency risk, or any suggestion. Would you please kindly advise.
