Thanks

Q: I assumed, along with some of your earlier comments, that the NAFTA resolution would provide some relief for stocks like NFI. It's concerning when a stock should be behaving better, but doesn't. . Any idea why the continued downward pressure? I know you will advocate continuing to hold, however, do you have a very strong conviction with NFI? Thanks

Q: Hi Peter/Ryan,

I was holding off buying MG and NFI because of NAFTA disagreements. Now that it is a done deal is it a good time to buy these stocks or future recession may have a bigger impact on the auto sector. They are trading close to 52 week low. Magna has dropped by almost $10 since July.
Appreciate your advice.

Thanks

All are relatively volatile compared to the rest (84%) of my holdings
Do you consider these holdings and their weights to represent excessive risk to a portfolio?
Which of these stocks would you keep and which would you sell to reduce the risk?

Q: Just a comment to add to your comments about NFI in a previous question.
While the 40 electric busses ordered by Montreal & Laval may not be significant as compared to the 4,000 they have sold in the last 12 months,
the more important thing is breaking into the Quebec market (probably the
2nd largest market in Canada next to Toronto/Ontario). Lets face it Quebec is notorious for paying whatever price to support Quebec companies. Should these buses perform well it could be very beneficial to NFI.

Q: I have listed a few comapnies that I believe are in the, let's call it "Tariff Penalty Box". My thinking is as follows:
1) They have already been hurt by the threat of tariffs.
2) If the tariffs do not come, they will 'pop'.
3) If the tariffs do come, they will also move up as the clarity of actual tariffs should ease concerns compared to the threat of nebullous, potential tariffs.

Does this seem reasonable to you? And do you agree that these four should all be on this list and are there others you would add to it?

Thank-you very much.

Q: Prices are down quite a bit from their highs.
Do you think one of the reasons for the decline is a switch by some investors from growth to value?
If so and faced with higher interest rates in the future it might time for you to consider starting a value equity model portfolio
Please comment
