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 owned the GOOG class "C" shares for many years and it trades with a minor discount to the class A GOOGL shares. On Market Call today the guest indicated "you should always buy the GOOGL shares. What is your opinion and if you agree should I sell to then acquire the GOOGL shares? That said, is this a reasonable time to bring this from a 3.4% weighting up to a 5%? Appreciate your insight.

Q: Tenneco (TEN.us)
Would you please update your mid-2016 opinion on Tenneco. Is it worth holding given the challenges faced by auto part makers and auto manufacturers. (GM for example has the lowest P/E in the S&P 500, I think--- not sure). I am a value-growth investor who also looks for dividend growth. Does TEN.us have good prospects? Is the company growing and are the fundamentals good?

Incidentally a member last year in a question on Tenneco referred to “the 5i-Scratch-Test”. What is that please?

Q: LaSalle Hotel Properties (LHO
Please evaluate LHO’s prospects for the next few years. Is LHO a dividend growth company. Is it well managed; does it have good fundamentals.

Do you believe it might be more interest-sensitive than its peers?

I have enough Canadian REITs which I have held for 4 or 5 years. I have been generally disappointed.Nevertheless, if you still recommend a Canadian company in lieu of LHO.us, I would welcome your opinion and your reasoning.

Q: Hi Peter &Ryan
I am currently sitting on about 30% cash as I just had a pref called on the US side .
Would you sit on cash right now or jump back into the market and if so could I have some names of Can. domiciled companies that trade in US $.
The balance of my porfoilo is reasonably balanced so I could add to any sector.
I am looking for div stocks and capital preservation over growth.
Kind Regards
Stan

Q: Hi Peter and team,
Impinj Inc has a very nice run up lately, it dropped 13% today along with the other tech stock.

What is your thought of this company. Do you see strong future growth?

Would you think it is buyable at this level or is it still too expensive?

Thanks as always. Pui

Q: Can you recommend a handful of your preferred US tech names? Also can you suggest anything in your coverage universe in tech that you would be wary of right now? For the latter I am curious about Canadian tech companies that you like but that for one reason or another may be best to avoid in the shorter term. Thanks.

Q: Hi,
I currently don't hold any tech. With the drop last week almost sector wide would you think this is a good entry point? I'm long term (at least 3-5 years), fairly comfortable with risk. What would you recommend? Any drips available will be utilized as well.

THanks!
