Investment Q&A

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

Q: Yahoo Finance is showing an ex-dividend date for Crius on May 30, 2019. Is there another dividend due on closing the transaction with Vistra? Also, I noticed that Credit Suisse acquired over 6 million shares of Crius on April 10 and 11 at a price that appears to average about $8.58 or $0.22 below the closing price. It seems that would produce a profit of $1,320,000 on closing. Not bad for a couple of months of holding the stock. Have I got this right?

Q: Been watching this for a while and more interested now after the drop. However, the largest reason for me not buying is that they seem to be largely focused on the food courts in shopping malls and I'm concerned about mall traffic in general, but the US specifically.

Are you able to tell me:
1. How dependant they are on malls in both the US and Canada (perhaps what % of their operations or revenue come from these), and;
2. How the Papa John's acquisition diversivies them from these malls (or not), and;
3. Is my concern reasonable or am I just being silly.

Thx.

Q: Hello
What do you think about PIMCO's BOND ETF? With the bond King no longer at the helm, has this damaged the support for fund. BOND

I have some USD cash and would like to buy something a bit safer than equities.
Thank you.

Q: Hi Guys,
Pengrowth Energy -
1. Announced Strategic Review
2. Lenders extended credit to Sept 2019
3. Seymour Schulich still accumulating shares as of March 2019 (most at higher prices than current and now owns ~30% of the company)
4. Rising oil prices over the last couple months.

Can I get your thoughts on all of the above?

It seems many have come to the conclusion that bankruptcy is in the future, however, I have my doubts as I would think Mr. Schulich would be well aware of these chances and would not have continued accumulating shares.. Also, could the recent uptick in oil prices be the saving grace for this company?

Please deduct as many credits as necessary to answer.
Cheers,
Dean
