Investment Q&A

Q: Hello Peter,
I've held FNV shares as my gold allocation since Q4/2018. Currently, I have a "reasonable" return of 8% per annum including dividends. With all the legal drama FNV is realizing in Panama, is it wise to sell FNV and buy another streamer or hold FNV for the long run?

Sitting with a taxable cap gain of 28%. Seems like the impact of FM is going to be significant for future earnings. Please advise your wisdom. Thank you.

Q: I would like to add to my existing positions and I am asking myself about timing. Both are close to their Highs but there is momentum. It would be a long term Investment. Your opinion is valuable.
Thank You!
Albert

Q: Quick turn around in this stock, from a Private Placement to potentially tripling the Bitcoin rewards in the purchase of new machines. Volume seems incredible. Normally 8M shares on NasDaq, today 46M. Normally 1.5M shares on TSX, today 6.5M. I assume when high volume and a positive day is almost always a good thing? Maybe a hedge fund or ETF building a position?

Q: Hi, I noticed that in Wednesday's trading, around noon, someone placed two large BUY orders at $75.80, for 30k and 18k shares (Total trade value $3.6 mln ). Stock later traded down to $75.51. Within an hour, after the orders were filled, Someone placed exactly the same two SELL orders at $76.20, for 30k and 18k shares. The stock bounced back up and both Sell orders were filled just before market close. These were not Block Trades, as there were multiple sellers/buyers for all four orders. CIBC World Market was the broker, both for initial buy orders and later sell orders.

Assuming (safely), that both buy/sell orders originated from the same party, the trades resulted in a net profit of $19k, on a trade value of $3.6 mln. Are these, Day Traders ( using Margin or not ), making money on a small arbitrage? Is this type of activity not uncommon during volatile trading of a stock, like today ? Does it have a relevance to large interest in ATD stock, Or, there is just not much to read here ? I am just curious and trying to educate myself. Thank You

Q: Hello 5i

My TFSA needs some torque - can you recommend three US growth stocks and three Canadian growth stocks that you find compelling to buy today for a 3-5 year hold?

They do not need to be sector or risk specific.

Thanks so much - very appreciated!

Q: Hi,
I don’t usually care on daily stock moves. But today, in a generally positive market, BBD and CAE , in the same sector, were both down close to 5%. Any news or analyst comments I missed ?

Q: Hi 5i,
In an otherwise balanced portfolio, I'm looking for some ideas for my TFSA.
Current holdings are KXS, LULU, HPS AND ATS.

I'm open to adding to the above names but was wondering if you
could you please recommend 10 Canadian and 10 US stocks that you feel would work well in a TFSA at this time in the market.

Thanks!!

Q: Hi, Based on the quarterly results and management commentary/confidence about their 5 years Growth Plan, and considering today's market reaction/price action of the stock, would you be on board, if we look to bump up current 1.50% position to 3% around $76 level ? Thank You

Q: In a 5iR response on Wednesday about CRWD, there was mention that "its (CRWD) performance seems better than many peers (not all)". And me, wondering what these "better" peers are???.....The reason for asking this is that if they are larger in market capitalization, I might be interested in investing in one....Keen to know about these peers.......Many thanks.....Tom

Q: Hi Folks,

My RRSP portfolio consists of the above stocks all with relatively the same weighing. Can you suggest 5 names or so, (CDN and U.S) that I take a look at that would complement the above? I am looking for a company that would be a good buy today for both income and capital appreciation - total return.
Thanks

Q: i've leaned on investing.com for real time US and international stock quotes to use for my speculative plays. i like investing.com overall but i'm struggling to find a good free platform for tsx and tsx.v stock real time quotes (ECN for example today did not appear as 'trending' or a 'mover' on that platform and i have noticed that investing.com falls short on CDN stocks in that regard. i realize the team likely uses a bloomberg terminal but what good options are available for myself for CDN stocks thank you very much
