Investment Q&A

Q: I have been holding HPQ for years. The company does not seem to go anywhwere. What are your thoughts on this company?

Q: Hi,

Thank you for all the responses.
With the drop in price on HP. Does HP have good growth perspective and is it a good entry point?

Best regards,
Ed

Q: Hello:

Doing a little cleanup and wondering if NA, BCE, SJR.B or HPQ are worth holding. For sure I have plenty of Canadian financial exposure without NA. I also hold Telus but wondering about dropping Shaw and/or BCE. HP seems to be on the upswing with COVID but is it a long-term keeper?

And then, if you think some can go, what might I substitute? NVDA for HPQ? Would US telcom companies be attractive?

These are held in RRSP, 20 year horizon.

Thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Looks like Xerox is attempting a takeover of HP. Is this what is referred to as a hostile take-over? I get lots of air mail telling me the Xerox position and other from HP saying its a bad deal. How does a person evaluate such an offer? Are you familiar? I hold HPQ currently.

Thanks.

Q: HPQ was slowly working its way higher until it was hit by a ten percent fall last week. the fall occurred, apparently, because of a new director coming in and the decision to cut a number of jobs. I was a bit puzzled by this and wondered about your thoughts on the company. It seems to me that investors often like cuts, as they are meant to produce more money. Yet, here it is a reason for a drop. Perhaps the people don't like the new president? but, you would think that he would have been well known by this time. Perhaps they think that the new policy of cuts from a new president may be reckless and its efficacy is uncertain? I have been thinking of opening a position in the hope it will soon recover that ten percent it lost. I don't want to have this stock as part of my permanent portfolio but simpy as a trade. are there any cautionary remarks you might make on this strategy?
thanks

Q: Hello, what do you think of HPE as an investment in the US technology sector? What is the company's debt / cash flow ratio? Is the ratio good? If you had to select just one between HPE and HPQ, which one would that be? Thanks, Gervais

Q: Can I get your thoughts on HPQ:US please and the over all impact of 3D printers. I bought DDD:US 9 months ago and have done very well - maybe time to take profit and put it into another 3D printer company.

Thank You As Always
