Investment Q&A

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

Q: Good morning,

As a newbie to wealthsimple. Just trying it out. I see they do private equity and private credit.

Is this something worth looking at as a portfolio grows for added diversification?

Do you know much about their capital partner and it's history. Looking for some quality direction here from the pros.

Thank you.

Q: If you owned BEP and BN, do you think it's worth selling BEP to buy BN as a replacement? I understand is that BEP pays BN a lot in fees, and that would be the smarter play in the longer run. What would you think of that? What are people saying about the cagr growth over the next few years? For example, if BEP is expected to grow up to 12%, but BN is expected to grow at 18%, BN would probably be the better choice. Is that logical thinking at all? Thank you!

Q: Good morning 5i
You recently published an excellent report on which companies to buy in view of upcoming interest rate cuts. Most of them were companies with dividends and struggling with debt.

If you were to buy a no dividend or low divident Canadian company today, what would it be? Or, perhaps three, ordered from first choice to last?
Thanks

Q: Hi Team,
Two part question. Firstly, like a fool I sold out of crwd at the worst possible time during the selloff in anticipation of more bad news and to raise cash in the overall sell off. Ever since it seems to be on a steady rise back up. Is it time to buy back the shares or should I wait until after earnings?
Second; do you see any compelling buys out there today to put new cash to work? If so what are some of your favourite names to purchase today Canadian and US. I was looking at adding to propel possibly …it boggles me it had such strong results and a muted share price ; not sure why but it seems undervalued. Same with go easy but I am already over weight in that one.

Thanks ,
Shane

Q: I have been a shareholder of Brookfield for 14 years and have gotten into the habit of reading CEO (Bruce Flatt) message to shareholders each quarter. I found the sections on in this quarter's letter interesting Share Repurchases and The AI Revolution is Increasingly a Renewable Story that your members may find worth wild reading. He also states that the share price is about 50% of the value of the company. Over the short term I could almost careless about the stock price of the company as the value of the company grows by 20% or so per year. Does this seem out of sorts the way I look at Brookfield.
