Q: Greetings, I have not asked a question for a while now (2 years?); here it goes. This seems like a good time to deploy some of my cash held in my TFSA. Can you suggest a stock similar to KXS in potential? Maybe GUD, PHO? Thanks as ever.

Q: Hello Peter,

First off, great job on BNN yesterday! Your comments helped reinforce on focusing on the long term and not quarterly results. Just to recap your theme, I have listed the companies with let's say "quarterly miss" , however, with a market over reaction to the downside. Can you add or delete other companies that fit in this category?

Thank-you for being in our investment corner.

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan,

We have a few dogs with the downturn but we also cashed in all of our high runners in early October. Your insight is invaluable in our portfolio management strategy and we understand the decision to buy or sell is in our control. On that note, we have been buyers the past two weeks when a stock drops 25%-40% (i.e. KXS today at $67.99). Can you comment on the following opportunities (BYD.UN, WSP, NFI, CCL.B, PBH, SHOP, ENHG) to purchase now with a 3-5 year hold inside RRSP's.
1. Please rank (based on your expertise) the above stocks from best to worst as of today to add to an RRSP.
2. Which of the above, if any, are considered "prime" to purchase today.

Thank you
Jerry and Debbie

Q: You have already responded about the earnings - my questions is more about strategy. Both these stocks broke their intermediate trends (using 200 MA) sometime ago (I think you called it a technical breakdown) . But both price and now earnings momentum are horrible why hold? I realize in the long term maybe okay but when things get this ugly (down more than 20% from their high) would it not it be better to allocate capital some where else - rather than have dead money? Thanks

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan,

For a long-term hold, is today a good entry point for PBH and CCL.B? If so, would you purchase a full or 1/2 position? If only one was to be purchased which has the best value and upside? One last question, are they best held in a TFSA or RRSP?
Please take the appropriate credits for our inquiry.
Cheers,
Jerry and Debbie

Q: Earnings 52 Week Low
Yield (%) Price % Diff
Badger Daylighting 6.7 22.37 15.90
CCL Industries 5.3 52.01 5.59
Methanex 8.7 62.30 28.27
I'm looking at buying one of the above companies. Based on today's stock price, I am torn between what is a more useful metric, Earning's Yield (MX) or 52 week low (CCL.B) or a combo approach (BAD) for an entry point. In your view which metric is more relevant for a 5 year investment horizon?

Q: Good morning,

Q: I have a question about CCL.B - I know you have answered questions on this one but given the current price action (looks like strong support here in the $54 - $55) can you elaborate on who is there competition is in the space and they losing or taking market share given packing labels are moving to more self-less cashier stores? Thank you
