Investment Q&A

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

Q: I am interested in buying Cummins for a long term (5-10 year) hold, or a comparable industrial in USF. Honeywell is my only other USF industrial. Could you please give me your opinion on purchasing it on the fall, or recommend other industrials, with a at least a small dividend.
Your advise is always appreciated!

Q: I have 2 questions.
I am looking to buy a few / up to 3 high dividend yielding US stocks for an income portfolio. What could you recommend ?
Looking to hold these US dividend stocks for at least 5 years, does the exchange rate and the premium to buy a US stock matter ? Or is that a long enough time horizon to migitate most of the exchange risk . Thank you

Q: MMM has fallen from grace, I presume from reduced guidance. However, I see increasing and steady dividends, a well managed business, good margins, major buy backs continuing, etc., etc.

Is the decline in price simply b/c investors are wanting more growth? Would you consider MMM a good buy today?

Best,

Cam

Q: Edwards, a US company that you likely do not follow, has developed an minimally invasive medical device and procedure for replacing faulty valves in humans. This procedure has many advantages, includinding cost and recovery time, over the open heart procedure. While there is competition in this market Edwards appears to be growing the stock has not performed well recently and I am down about 8%. I am considering selling if my loss reaches 10%.
Would you please give me you opinion of this company if you follow it t all?
With appreciation,
Ed

Q: Well I was lucky enough to hold shares of ANDV and it was taken over by MPC this a.m.

Combination of shares and cash.

If you were holder of ANDV what would you do at this point? Sell or hold? Partial or total?

Thanks

Q: I am a shareholder in Andeavor which announced this morning that it was being acquired in a friendly deal by Marathon Petroleum Corporation. I previously held shares in Western Refining that was in turn acquired by Tesoro, Andeavor's prior name, in a share deal. Marathon is offering $152 a share, payable in cash or shares. I am inclined to take the cash and run (assuming the deal clears antitrust review - note there is a large deal completion discount with Andeavor shares closing at $138 today). Do you have any thoughts on what a prudent course of action would be/would you be more inclined to take the shares or cash? (I hold the shares in a TFSA so no tax payable)
