Investment Q&A

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

Q: I have received my cash payment for the shares in AW.UN. I would like to reinvest the funds and was thinking of investing in either the Keg or Boston Pizza fund. Can you please compare the two funds and advise which would be more stable and have some potential for growth.. Any other suggestion in the food services industry would be welcomed. Thank you for your great service.

Q: My husband is 8 years away from retirement and wants to buy dividend stocks to leave mostly alone (not checking daily like me!) - he'll check in on it now and then. This is the list he's come up with - slightly higher positions in BCE, BPF.UN and slightly lower in AW.UN, CAR.UN and OLY, otherwise fairly evenly split. Do you see this a good list for his purposes, and is there anything you would leave off, or add? Any other alarm bells? Thanks!

Q: These stocks are owned in an income portfolio and while their yields are good the continued downward trend is worrisome. Which would you replace, and with what, and if you could provide a reasoning for the change. REAL is my "real" worry, if truth be told, but I also feel slightly off my pizza these days ...

Q: Can you provide a 'buy' list for a person wanting to deploy $200,000 (inside RRSP) with the goal of creating 5% or more sustained cash flow - as well as growing the original capital to keep up with inflatiion? We do not have company pensions - this would serve to supplement our government pensions.
Thinking, 20 stocks across all sectors @ $10,000 each (or 5%)
Also could you include 10 growth stocks (inside TFSA) for a total of $250,000 - gotta have some fun ;)
Many Thanks

Q: I would like to buy shares in a restaurant company that stands to profit from the removal or reduction in Covid restrictions. I intend to buy this in a TFSA and hold it for a year or longer. How would you rank these companies in terms of expected overall return? Or could you recommend another company that might do better than any of these?

Q: This is a follow up question regarding Boston Pizza, as I too bought shares in bpf.un many years ago for income, and at a much much higher Avg cost than where it is today. As the dividend has been suspended, and the business has not been growing as highlighted in your most recent report on the company, I am considering selling and taking my loss. My only question is if there might be a buyout of this company by a stronger competitor? Cara for example? Or does Jim Treliving have the resources to take the company private?
