Investment Q&A

Q: Comments on just released CCL.B earnings please.

thank you

Q: Hi,

I see on your coverage summary that you have CCL listed as basic materials, however TSX lists it as consumer cyclical. Can you confirm which category it falls into? Could it be somewhat industrial as well?

Thanks!

Q: Hi, can you please provide the street estimates for Q4, 2016 for Revenue, Adj. EPS and EBITDA. Thanks

Q: Hi,

Are any of these companies likely to be affected by Trumps border tax? Also, could you rate your favourites of the above companies. I'm a medium risk investor.

Q: Following your balanced equity portfolio. I have read some questions you answered recently. Besides SIS, Premium Brands and KXS which other 2 or 3 equities do you expect higher returns in the next couple years. Thank you as always for your advice. Steve

Q: I think CCL.B, RPI.UN, WPK and ITP are sort of i the packaging/labelling business so somewhat related. How would you rate these companies based on earnings potential and management competence & ability to do what they promise over 5 yr period? Also separately rate each relative to their balance sheet please.
Thank you.

Q: Is CCL in danger of being penalized by the possible US import tax that may loom in Canada's future?

Q: Which of CCL and WPK is the better investment ?

Q: Hi There,
I am currently considering adding a position in my kids RESP account of one of the three companies, CCL.B, MX or OTC.
I currently hold BNS,FFH, MG and REI.UN in this account. I am looking at a 7 year plus time frame before the funds are needed.
Please advise which of the three you think would be the best fit, or any other suggestions that you might recommend.
Thank you for your help.

Q: Good afternoon,

I am new to 5iresearch, and have been spending the last few weeks researching your Balanced Portfolio.

I am struggling a little with both CXI and CCL. I would like to include them in my own portfolio construction, but am concerned with their recent (significant) price appreciation.

Notwithstanding the various explanations for the recent price performance of both companies, I am simply wondering if you would add to your exposure of both CXI and CCL at current levels?

Q: I have the listed companies in my TFSA($60k). I haven't been too concerned with portfolio weightings due to the portfolio size and have let the winners run. As a result close to 50% of the portfolio is held in just 2 stocks (CCL.B and CRH) I have nice gains in the others except DBOX and SYLOGIST which are both flat and I have considered switching out. Two questions I have are 1. Do you think it is a prudent strategy to stay this course or would you rebalance keeping in mind these weightings are not that out of whack when you consider my other portfolios? 2. What name(s) would you consider adding to this mix for my 2017 contribution of $5500.

Thank you and Merry Christmas to the entire 5i staff for your outstanding service.

Q: Hello and Merry Christmas. I have been doing some reading in regards to RFID and the multiple uses it has in everyday life. With Amazon looking to change the grocer business would you have any suggestion on companies in this field to look into, that would be listing in Canada or the USA? I have found zbra, gpic, rop listed in the states already. Thank you for your time have a great day

Q: I've both CCL.B and ITP and over the years, they have grown quite a bit. I am thinking to trim back to lower their %. Please let me know if both are in about the same business. Which has a better balance sheet (less debt) and more future growth? Which of the two should I trim back or should I sell equal portion of both? Thanks and a merry Xmas to the entire 5i team.

Q: CCL.B is up 18% today on news that it bought Innovia. Thoughts?

Q: Usually when a company makes a big purchase it's stock takes a hit, but CCL is up over 18% on the news of its purchase. Is this overdone? If you own should you sell now in expectation of a pullback, or contrarily if you didn't own now would you buy it here?

Q: CCLindustries hasten up ~18% this AM. Is it purely to the purchase of Innovia or is there another reason? Is this acquisition that benificial? Thanks for your insights.

Q: can you give me your opinion of the CCL purchase of Innovia
CCL market cap is about 9B. This purchase is more then 10% of its
MC.A big bite. My read is very positive, but what do I know.
CCl is a large % of my portfolio since about $89.00

Q: I have a question about 929
Hello, I've noticed that CCL is not participating in the recent rally. Just wondering whether there are any apparent reasons for it being left out? Anything to do with negative headwinds on trade, a la TRUMP, or with the USD rallying? Many thanks!

Q: One third of my non sheltered account consists of shares in ATD.B, CCL.B, CSU, and SJ. In the last month the TSX is up about 3+%. In the same period these stocks are all down (13%, 5%, 6% and 8%). The only common thread I can see is that I own them. Do you have any insights that explains the not inconsiderable under performance of the share prices of these stocks in the last month?

Q: Please rank these four stocks in order of preference for buying today. Thank you, Barrie
