Investment Q&A

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

Q: I hold both The stars group and cineplex and would like to continue with these type of positions to gambling and cineplex type exposure to gaming and entertainment. Is there any possibility for these companies will continue to list on the tsx. I don't want a British stock is my only option to take the buyout.
If so how would you play these buy outs : hold until the buyout or sell now. Also do I need to tell my broker I wish to tender or will it just happen? Thank you again for your insightful assistance. mike

Q: A question about the casino company Game Host. My father's sold his Cineplex position and his looking for another stock with (1) a high yield (2) a monthly dividend. His bonds are not paying enough. With oil back over 60$, do you think that Game Host properties should see better traffic soon? We don't hope for capital appreciation, but want a balance sheet that has more chance to improve than weaken. Thank you!

Q: Hi,

Having sold DRG.UN & CGX, I'm sitting on some cash.

Could you give me your top 5 relatively safe, relatively high dividend/distribution paying choices to replace these?

Sector is not important. Getting a benefit from companies whose price is depressed due to tax loss selling is a bonus but not critical.

Thanks,

Gord

Q: I am a retired, conservative, dividend-income investor. I just sold CGX and need to replace it with something else in the Consumer sector. I currently own AW, NWC, PBH and love dividends.

Can you please give me 3 replacement options in the Consumer Cyclical space as well as 3 options in the Consumer Staples space? If it is possible to filter a dividend over 3%, that would be ideal...if not 3%, then try for > 2%.

Thanks...Steve

Q: I will be coming into some cash around the middle of next summer and will be re-orienting my portfolio towards income. I want to have 4%+ overall yield. To that end I am looking for a bunch of higher income stocks so I can hold on to my low or no yield, growth stocks. Specifically I am looking at stocks that have over 6% yield and whether you think a full or partial position makes the most sense for each. Please deduct as many credits as you see fit. Thank-you.

Q: I have been monitoring the above list of stocks. I have some cash to deploy in the names. Can you please list the above names in your preferred order to purchase them. Which ones you like the best? Should I wait for tax loss selling season to see more pressure on the names. Thank you for your opinion.
