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 disappointed in the lower returns of Canadian apartment reits, and can't bring myself to buy Pure Multifamily (RUF.UN) because of the high payout ratio. Are there any US apartment reits that you might suggest I have a look at? I am targeting a dividend of 5% or more.
Thanks!

Q: Hi. I own 2 US stocks, Pfizer and J&J. Have become overweight in J&J so will have some US funds to deploy. I am retired and am a dividend investor with minimum risk. I read with interest your answer to Keith that Verizon and Telus about the same and JPM and Royal Bank similar. You indicated best to invest in areas in the US like Industrials, Tech or large consumer stocks. Appreciate what stocks you recommend in these areas as well as your thoughts on Verizon.

Q: Hello team,

What is wrong with FDA wanting to review CorMedix's "full data set including secondary endpoints from the LOCK-IT-100 study to facilitate FDA's consideration of CorMedix's request to file the New Drug Application (NDA) for Neutrolin on the basis of the LOCK-IT-100 study results."

Why the 27% drop after the meeting with FDA and willingness of the company to provide the data and fully cooperate?

Hold, Sell, or Average down on CRMD?

Thanks as always.

Q: Hi Team,
I have been averaging up on Google since 2013 and I am currently up 90% and it now accounts for about 8% (in C dollar) of my total portfolio. I am just wondering if I should take some money of the table (my risk tolerance level is above average). Your thoughts on this would be much appreciated.
Cheers,

Q: I have held pho for about a year and thinking of selling pho and buying nvda as they are down the same thus increasing the quality of my semi conductor exposure. Also I have made a lot of money from csu and kxs and have sold them and bought a small exposure to msft for the same reason. Does this make sense to you....thanks for the great service

Q: WINA Can you help me understand Winmark Corp. Its a US company but its franchises are in Canada and the US. One if its franchises is PlayitAgainSports which im familiar with. Its got impressive chart performance over all time periods. Rev growth is slow but pretty steady, crazy high gross margin (im guessing due to it being a franchise and receiving fees), low div but raised yearly, nice EPS, and extremely low share count which has only gone down since inception. The performance is impressive but its very hard to value due to it having weird fundamentals from what I can see in Morningstar, hoping you can explain. Here's what I don't get. Negative book value the last 5 years, no free cash flow for 2017, and for the last 3 years its showing nothing for ROE and ROIC. Thoughts on Winmark as an investment?
