Investment Q&A

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

Q: What do you think of this company which is a supplier of powertrain systems to most car companies. It seems to be a very stable company with a decent moat.

The only 2 things I can see is the vehicle market is slowing and their dept more than doubled over the past year (I think they issued notes recently).

Thank You,
Andrew

Q: Stamp.com, NASDAQ:STMP

I appreciate your opinion on this company. It seems to me that it has good earning growth, and many analyst have strong buy recommendation but shares have not been doing well recently. If I sell this company at a loss would you recommend any similar company with a better risk reward prospect? Thanks

Q: I currently hold BPY (up 50% over cost) and H&R in my portfolio 4% and 3% respectively.
I am considering swapping BPY for BEP for the additional income. Your thoughts?

I also plan to crystallize my capital losses and purchase the following ETFs:
Non registered:
ZPW – US Put Write
ZWE – Europe Covered Call hedged to CAD.
ZWH – US covered call
CPD – CAD preferred
XRE – Capped REIT

Registered (RRIF):
PGX:US – Preferred.

Each would constitute 2% - 3% of my portfolio. Diversification is my intention, but risk and surety of income is the primary consideration in all of the above noted.

Again, your thoughts.

Thank you for considering my questions

Q: PHILLIPS 66 (PSX:NYSE)... I am looking for a combination of refiners for a pullback. The movement in the oil/gasoline is indicating that prices will retract again from current levels. I would like your thoughts on Phillips 66 and one other to hold for the next 12-18 moths. Consensus is looking at mid 2017 before the market really starts to get a hold of the supply side. Do you see this company able to grow revenues and possibly increase profitability?

Thank you

Q: I know you do not follow this company in depth but I was hoping you might do some digging. I have held this company for a while trading around it. Do you see any issues with growth or profit. Recent announcements seem to be positive going forward. I am looking to reload at current levels as winter months seem to be the time to lighten up.
