Investment Q&A

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

Q: Seems to me that the market must be offering up some strong, well run companies that, for some strange reason, are trading at much lower prices than what they deserve. These kinds companies pay a good dividend, have a strong balance sheet and their forward earnings look good and dependable. (perhaps you call these kinds of companies 'value' companies). Anway, here's my question, I would like to begin investing in them and would appreciate your opinion on a number of these value companies that I should consider adding to my portfolio. Perhaps 6 Canadian and 6 American. Thanks as always for your appreciated opinion.

Q: Hi,
Please take as many credits as you feel fit. Our portfolio is a hot mess. We’ve basically been ignoring this downturn for the past 6 months knowing we are are in for the long term. Retirement is 7-10 years out. The above holdings have fallen below a 1% weight in our portfolio. We have limited cash to deploy. Which of these would you add to? In what order? Any you would not add to and just hope that time allows for recovery? Any if these you would sell? For the ones that could be added too. Would you just buy now or put some stink bids in given the crazy volatility in markets? Any additional input is welcome.
Thanks so much,
Kerri

Q: Have any of the companies in the 5i Growth Portfolio been actively buying back stock? Have you considered sending out flash emails with this information? Don’t you think investors should be focusing in on CEO’s of companies buying back stock as the market craters?
Thanks

Q: It appears that the acquisition of Link is going to happen. Is this going to be a catalyst for the stock? Investors don't seem to be convinced of the benefits of the deal since the stock after a jump Thursday is somewhat flat Friday.
I'm deep under water on this one. I can be patient when a stock is broken but not so sure if the company is not broken in this instance. Now what?
