Investment Q&A

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

Q: If we expect a trend towards more internet/online shopping (eg. Amazon), is there an investing opportunity in companies that provide packaging for this type of service? Personally, as I've used more online shopping, I've used Canada Post/UPS/FedEx significantly more, and I've been recycling a lot of cardboard boxes. Would CCL.B or WPK have any positive exposure to this type of trend? Any other companies that would?

Q: Hi Peter and Team,
For this year's RRIF payment, I need to sell approximately 14K of stocks as I've been almost fully invested over the last year, in large measure due to 5i's superb recommendations. The stocks listed above are in sectors where I am overweight. I have several questions, so please deduct credits as you see fit:
(1) If I sold CGX outright, I'd obtain roughly 14K and would reduce my total number of holdings and lower my overweight consumer discretionary stocks. Even though CGX has fallen from its lofty heights, I'm still up, especially when factoring in the accumulated dividends. Also, there would be only one sell transaction. Are you OK with this plan?
(2) Are there any others in the list that could/should be an outright sell?
(3) Or, would a better plan be to reduce holdings in each stock by taking profits?
Of course, this would mean more sell transaction fees.

As always, I defer to your recommendations, and have been rewarded for doing so. Thanks in advance.

Q: The laggards in my portfolio are currently NFI, CCL, GTE (only oil & gas exposure) and CBL. Would you suggest dumping any of these names/replacing them with other names or would you suggest holding them for now? Thanks for the great service.

Q: Hi guys, I'm looking at your response to 'who's likely to suffer when NAFTA gets torn up' (which seems increasingly likely)... I have held these for a long time and been VERY happy with all of them, but is it time to trim them down? Do you think the NAFTA threat is sufficiently priced in? I'd love to get your thoughts on each one. Thanks! PS -- you can ding me for 5 questions :-)

Q: Hi

Based on Ryan's reply to the questions asked on the 3 companies mentioned above today on BNN.
Would it be wise to sell them now or reduce my position?
If yes, what would you suggest to replace them with?
Looking for growth first and a dividend is always nice.
Thank you
Mike
