Investment Q&A

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

Q: I own a small percentage of ECN (no gain/loss) and EFN (at a loss currently). I'm thinking of consolidating my stocks by selling one or both. I'm wondering whether I should sell both ECN and EFN and consolidate in a stock such as GSY, or whether I should sell the EFN and consolidate in ECN. What do you think? Do you have any suggestions or recommendations in other similar stocks that I could consolidate in? Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

Q: I know you are high on this co.,and i agree it is maybe cheap, but it is now off close to 30% of it's high and sinking fast to where it was 3 years ago, i know it is still up for the year, but what is it that the market does not like about this stock?. I find that many low p/e stocks are not the stocks that you want to hold,they are cheap for some reason.
Thanks again so much.

Q: Hi 5i,

As of today, which stocks would you purchase with a full position in an RRSP to hold for 3-5 years?

Which stocks would you consider value stocks to purchase today for 1/2 to a full position in an RRSP?

Thank you for your excellent service and advice.

Cheers,

Jerry & Debbie

Q: I am looking for 3 or 4 Canadian dividend paying stocks to add to my portfolio. What are today's picks for safe, rising dividends, and fairly priced stocks of solid companies? My portfolio is well balanced, so sector is not important.

Q: Hello Peter, Given the good growth data for Canada recently, it appears interest rates may increase more than originally anticipated. Would this have a positive or negative impact on GSY? With increased growth in Canada, people are more likely to have more money to spend because of jobs etc., but increased rates would make borrowing more expensive. What are your thoughts? Thank you for your great advice always.

Q: Good morning,
I recently (last 2 weeks) added BCE, Enbridge and Goeasy to my kids' accounts with a 2-3 years investment horizon. Last night's guest on Market Call had nothing but bad things to say about these three companies as long term investments. I rely a lot on what I hear on market call is that a mistake and do you think my entry points were ok?
Thank you,
Chantal

Q: Hi, my only financial exposure is bns. With rising rates I know you recommend insurance companies such as sun life. I have a long time to invest as I'm only 31. What would you recommend for best upside potential to get some more financial exposure? I worry that the big insurance companies might be more for security and income providing less total return than some smaller growth oriented names. Could you recommend a few names and give my your thoughts on my ideas?

Thanks
