Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi, I got in when it was supposedly cheap, at about $12.80. It's now hovering at around $8. As a non-resident, selling for tax losses doesn't apply. As you wrote recently that you're not fans of investing to break even, do you have any opinions on possible moves? Sell some at a loss to invest in better stocks, hold for a while and see what happens with tariffs, hold for a longer period of time as this is a good stock and we'll pay off over the next couple years? Thank you for your time.

Q: In my TFSA I have held WELL for 4 years and now considering selling along with DRX. Would selling these 2 and replacing with ISRG make sense for better growth.

Q: Hi 5i,

I've read through your previous comments on the company and I was wondering:

1) What do you perceive as the key drivers to this company's performance?
2) What do you think explains the rollercoaster that the share price has gone through?
3) What should I pay attention to if I want to decide whether the company will right the ship and re-establish its momentum?

Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i, I was listening to a steel analyst stating that "value added steel manufacturers" like Russel metals would be exempt from steel tarrifs. I realize the companies that actually make steel and the steel outputs for downstream manufacturing will be taxed. If this is true then aren't companies like the one mentioned or DRX or HPS also exempt? Now if anything manufactured in Canada is taxed then all bets are off.

Thx

Q: Hi 5i, I'm struggling to keep the mentioned companies in the face of pending 25% steel and aluminum tarrifs. Would appreciate a review and some comforting analysis :)

One thing not talked about is the dollar impact on these companies which have US sales, and the potential benefit of monetary policy easing faster now that this tarrif nonsense has basically put on hold any investment in our industries.

My gut is telling me that our last year recession, masked by insane immigration, will become an official recession this year.

Thx

Q: DRX continues to fall. I have been keeping it as a 3 year plus hold because of its value and possible growth due to its innovative technology. Your thoughts.

Also, are there any Canadian stocks that you were favorable on that you think investors should consider selling now that tariffs appear to be happening? Thanks Steve

Q: Hello, I am wanting to increase my TFSA Industrial sector from 12% to 15%. I presently hold ATRL CP MDA and DRX. Which would be better addition RTX or ATS? Another thought is add RTX and replace DRX (down 30%) with ATS. I do hold for longer term. Thanks for any comments.
