Investment Q&A

Q: Do you know of a Canadian company that is manufacturing Electric cars similar to Tesla. Thanks. Ernie

Q: I owned DAN:US (Dana Inc) . I bought in Oct/Nov for approx $15. I put in a stop loss and got stopped out at around $19 in late Dec. Shortly after getting stopped out the stock continued to rise. Now currently at around $25+
- I was intrigued by the company initially to get in. I am still interested in the company, but a little cautious to get back in at these levels...
- What are your thoughts on Dana Inc ?
- What are your thoughts on Dana Inc Vs. Magna ?
- I know different companies, but would you consider Buying Both, Or One over the other?

Thanks in advance!

Q: Non-registered account with goal of primarily dividend income has done quite well, with all of the noted holdings nicely in positive territory. In hind sight MG and SYZ would have been in a registered account. SYZ is up 63%, MG 24%.
Overall account yield is currently 3.8%. Would prefer it closer to 5%
Need some help with this "good problem". Take capital gain now and move into yieldier positions, or let running stocks run and deal with bigger gain in future?
If I move out of some of the growthier stocks, which div payers minimum 3% yield to move into?
Overall portfolio diversification is pretty decent, and diversification within this account does not have to be perfect - dividend security within this account is more important.

Thanks,
Jim

Q: Hello 5i team,

According to portfolio analytics, I am underweight in Consumer Staples and Consumer Discretionary as well as US exposure. I am a growth investor with a long-term horizon. This is for a TFSA.

In Consumer Staples I hold ATD.B and PBH and was thinking of adding COST.US.

In Consumer Discretionary I have ATZ, BOYD, DOO, LULU.US and was thinking of adding MG and possibly LNF.

Could you suggest some Canadian and US names for both Staples and Discretionary that would compliment my existing holdings?

Thanks for your advice.

Q: Would you buy a full position of MG-T today? or buy a half LNR and half MG-T.Thanks keep up good work

Q: whats dropping this today?

Q: What do you think of this twenty stock dividend portfolio for a taxable account? I am focusing on high quality and it yields about 3.8% . Any changes you would make?

Q: While I have no issue buying and selling stocks in my registered accounts, I find I am tremendously reluctant to sell stocks in my non-registered accounts when there's a capital gain. By way of example, I've held onto MSI for a couple of years and am up 45%. The stock seems to be stalling...and I'm tempted to replace it with MG. Two questions/asks:
1) Please discuss your strategy for selling profitable stocks in a non-registered account.
2) In my case, would you replace MSI with MG...and why? (In terms of industrials, I also own TFII, WSP and J.)
Thank you.

Q: Do you believe Magna is a buy at today's price?

Q: Based on your experience and the resources you have access to, do you care to give your educated and thoughtful guess on the following: IF Apple were to proceed with building smart cars, would you agree Apple is far more likely to contract with MGA than with any legacy automakers? In this context , let us define “far more likely” as a greater than sixty percent chance. If you place the chances significantly lower than that, would you not agree that MGA is now fully valued? Come now, perhaps even modestly over valued?

Q: Hey Team,

Thoughts on industries or specific companies to target after the federal budget announcement?

Q: Which do you see having better upside and safety for the next 2 to 3 years and why? Thank you.

Q: I want to buy positions in these companies in my unregistered account. Could you put them in order to purchase based on market economy timing, if possible. And in my TFSA I'd like to purchase ECN, LGO, ATS--any thoughts on sequence and timing of purchase? Thank you.

Q: Further to my question of March 19, I have received the funds which represent 15% of my non registered account ( and 7.5 % of total portfolios).
I have added the hedged ZQQ to the list as I have no tech exposure in any portfolio and have a US property being 20% of my total assets, thus providing adequate currency diversification.
I used one third of the new funds to purchase BAM and am now looking for the next 2. Your suggestion and reasons are appreciated. Derek

Q: Magna has doubled in the last year and is at an all time high. I keep reading on this site that Mg is cheap with good upside. I am waiting for a pull back, but the stock keeps steadily climbing. Do you think another double is doable within the next 5 years and if so could you provide some data points to support this contention. Thank you

Q: Can you list a few companies you think are undervalued today?

Q: looking at to buy a stock in auto industry.

Q: For a stock price to double in 5 years requires an average gain of about 15% compounded, annually. Would you please rank these 12 stocks in order for the likelihood, in your opinion, they will double in price in the next 5 years. Roughly how many of these 12 would you expect to achieve that target? Assuming no major long term market melt down which would preclude good stock performance over this period. CTS, DCBO, DND, DOO, ECN, GOOS, GSY, KXS, MG, NVEI, PHO, TIXT.

Q: I currently hold 3% positions in FTT, TCL.A, ARE in the Industrial; as well as MG and NFI in Consumer Discretionary (I realize that these are in a different sectors but are also semi-industrial). I am thinking of adding MAL as a long term recovery play. FTT, & ARE had been added last year for these reasons. I'm quite bullish in NFI and see it as having the most upside in the short term.

Do you see this as being a good addition/strategy?

To fund a 1.5% position MAL is there one company that you see as not having as much "upside" that you would trim by half, or a combination that you would suggest trimming from?

Thanks!
Cory
