Investment Q&A

Q: Could you rank your order of preference today as I would like to add one of these 4 stocks, irrespective of sector? I am looking for total return for long term hold. Thank you.

Q: If you were to decide between these two stocks straight up for a time horizon of three to five years, which would you choose, thanks?

Q: 23 year-old slowly building out his TFSA. GSY (23%), KXS (19%) and LSPD (29%) now dominate weightings with PHO, PBH, REAL, BAM.A and CNR being between 5%-7% each. Going to trim GSY/KXS/LSPD back to 10% each and use the funds to purchase four new positions. Given this is a long-term hold could you suggest your favourite 5 or 6 (Canadian or US) growth stocks or those with potential to be the next SHOP in order of preference and why? Many thanks for your always astute insights.

Q: Hi guys,

Two questions so please deduct the appropriate credits:

1 - Is the energy sector now purely a trade going forward? Are the days or steady production growth gone given how volatile the price of energy can be? It seems like there are ample opportunities for trades, but buy and hold, unless its a pipelines seems to be finished for now at least. Agree or Disagree?

2 - Looking to add some consumer discretionary to my portfolio for a recovery. Deciding between QSR and ATZ. I like the size of QSR and the dividend, but ATZ has lots of growth potential in the U.S. and Internationally and my wife likes their clothes!! ;) If you had to choose one, which would it be?

Thank you,
Jason

Q: Is it too late to buy ATZ? Are there others in the sector you like better?

Q: Hi group now that a vaccine is close I would like to start to build a portfolio based on good solid cheap value stocks . Can you recommend along with brief comments a couple of stocks in each of the key sectors that will start to move as the vaccine comes on line. Your expertise is appreciated

Q: Hello Folks:
As the Covid situation has hastened the move to online shopping, some brick and mortar stores are going to have a much brighter future than others. Businesses such as Walmart and Best Buy appear to be having more success than others. I would appreciate your suggestions on choosing companies which have the brightest future integrating these two systems.
Thank you again for your great service!

Q: It is hard to imagine that this pandemic will one day be a distant memory but eventually life will return to a pre pandemic normal. Can you name 4 or 5 Canadian traded stocks that suffered during the pandemic that you believe will have growth potential in this future?

Q: If you could see into the future and knew COVID, people's fear of COVID, the economic effects of COVID were all gone ( basically a complete return to normal scenario was 100% for sure in 2021/2022) what basket of Canadian stocks would you purchase now for longer term hold (5-8 years).

Q: Good Morning Peter & team,

so... As per your comments couple of days ago referring to a positive outlook for ATZ being dependent on the Oct 14 earnings call, I am assuming??? the very positive move today (up over 8%) is a result of a good report yesterday?

If you could please provide your opinion of the recent ATZ Earnings Call and any forward looking opinions you may have.

Also, in consideration for the very negative a brick & mortar report (malls primarily) which I saw yesterday along with the very positive on-line shopping results reported, are there any other companies which are related to on-line shopping you think we should consider moving forward in 2021come as we/if we come out the other end of Covid? Also, please confirm ATZ & LSPD are considered Industrials.

ps... presently my portfolio has a 5% position ATZ & 4.8% LSPD

Thanks for all you do

Q: Your thoughts on their 1/4ly release please.

Q: I do not own these 8 companies from the balanced portfolio and I do have some money to invest. I already have a reasonably well balanced portfolio (except overweight in tech). Dividends are nice but not that important. Is there one you would consider a particularly interesting buy with a timeline of 5 years? Could you rank the top3?

Q: I am underweight consumer discretionary stocks (also underweight US stocks). I only own AMZN and REAL in this space. Considering ATZ or GRMN. Are there any others I should consider. What would be your suggestion to add? My portfolio has a mix of about 25 US and Canadian stocks based on reading your question section daily. Thanks for all you do for the independent investor!

Q: What do you think it will take for this stock to get to pre-Covid levels and what type of time frame as stock has not moved

Q: I'm looking for a few suggestions of economy re-opening stocks, US and CAD that you would consider 'investable' with a recovery taking place over the next year or so.

Q: What are the prospects for badger daylighting in the next year? What companies in your balanced equity portfolio do you predict will have solid growth over the next Couple years?
Also your outlook for pho over the next year?

Q: Do you believe the cyclic trade is back for real and if so, can you recommend 3 stocks Each in the US and Canada? Thanks!
