Investment Q&A

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

Q: Would you consider both or either of these companies a buy? One is on the TSX, the other in NY and more concentrated in one area (rice). Might you have other preferences?
Your insights are appreciated!

Q: Nuance Communications NUAN (US)
I thought Carl Icahn’s investment in NUAN would shake things, but it is down ~20% from a year ago. Any hope for NUAN? Other technology companies are said to have looked at buying NUAN but no offers.

I do not want to shoot this dog, but... (I can't use the tax loss). Your comment would be much appreciated.
Thank you
Adam

Q: The US dollar has risen substantially lately. The S&P 500 has risen 50% in 3 years. I understand that both of these have climbed due to the foreign influx of capital seeking the haven of the reserve currency of the world. Can the U.S dollar and markets continue in this manner alone while other countries languish? Do you have any concerns regarding the strength of the U.S. dollar or the strength of the S&P 500?

Q: According to Cramer ,"Qualcomm has become a lawsuit stock. I can't take the risk."
It is down .48% again today ... After holding this for a year I am now down 5.55% with prospects of it gong down further. (???) The problems with the Chinese has been know for months ... Do you think QCOM will just erode away from here ? What would you do if you were in my shoes ? My US investments so far have been an total disaster thanks to GTAT , GSK, and RIG .
I just keep on picking bad situations .

Is it a LULL as you said in October, or is this something to be more concerned about. Thanx

Q: Hi Peter & Team,
I am thinking to invest in VGR, but with the Canadian $ is so low, does it make sense to invest in the US stock market these days, with about 14% up-charge? (maybe by the time I'll sell it, the Canadian $ will strengthen and I will lose the exchange rate - I don't think the exchang rate will be lower)
Also, I could not find any Canadian tobacco listed in Canada.
Do you know and recommend any?
Thanks,

Q: This stock has been beaten up over the last while; however, reported good Q4 results & guidance for 2015. It appears to have no debt., low payout ratio with reasonable ROE. I'd like to see a better dividends-but, was thinking of it as a position for my USD portion of my portfolio with the hopes of dividend increases and capital gains? I'd probably sell PBI which I have held for quite a while to buy this stock.

Q: Hi,

I own Walgreen and it is doing quite well. As a long term investor, I'm considering adding to it or adding CVS? What do you think of that space and those two companies, or is there another you prefer?
