Investment Q&A

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

Q: I'm curious about companies that have been rather lacklustre but somehow have experienced some catalyst that has allowed them to gain their footing once again and recently started to move up in value considerably. Not worried about size of company nor what sector they are in could you suggest 5 Canadian and 5 American companies that fit the bill.

Q: Wow. Is the market rational?
I find it's certainly getting far more explosive in qtrly reaction (up or down).

I am happy with this (what I think is) wild crazy lift in 1 day as Docu has morphed into a 'normal' software company (as in, making $, having profit, high GM) vs hype of 'future $'.

But, stepping back. To me, it is now trading at a "fair" valuation based on 8-10% rev growth and now >20PE.
How do you like how this company has turned itself around ? Do you think this move is simply a catch up or do you see a fundamental re-thinking of docu and there is more room for stock price re rating?
30% in one day? wow.

Q: I’m significantly underwater on these stocks. Can you please advise which ones you’d hold, and which ones you’d sell? Can you please also give 5 growth stocks in Canada and 5 in the US that you are high on right now in place of the above?

Q: Hi there, I have EDGE and curious about XEXP. I know you don't normally go for new / low AUM ETFs but could you provide some analysis on whether you might make the switch from EDGE to the new Blackrock fund? I think hoping to get your thoughts as follows (charge multiple questions if warranted):

1. please compare the two products ignoring the differences in track record / AUM

2. If an investor likes XEXP better from a product design perspective, when might you be comfortable moving in (6 months and 100m AUM? less, more?)

Thanks!

Q: I have small positions in the above noted companies held in my TFSA. They are all underwater and so there is no tax advantage to selling these losers. I would like to sell some or all of them and either to one or more of them or move on to some small techs that have more prospects. Can you let me know which of these you would sell hold or add to. Thanks for your ongoing great advise.

Q: Was happy to see DOCU's small rebound and the relatively positive report you gave them in your answer to a previous question.

My question is whether they really have a moat with their product or whether it can be reproduced by a bigger player like Microsoft.

Your answer will help to decide whether it's better to sell during this rebound or hope for a return to the heights it once enjoyed.
