Investment Q&A

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

Q: Dear Peter et al,

Your answers seem to indicate that the bottom is near but will take sometime to get up to speed. You seem to suggest that a 3 to 5 year time horizon is a reasonable time frame to expect a recovery. (I am paraphrasing here!)

With this in mind which group of stocks would you choose. ARKK or FAANG group. I see that ARKK doesn't have the big names in FAANG except TSLA which some people don't include in FAANG!

An impressive bounce in ARKK , almost 10% makes me ask this question.

Q: Is there a good reference site that provides current forward consensus estimates of the Bank of Canada 5 year Bond Yield over the forward rolling 5 year term?

When trying to estimate/guesstimate forward BOC-5 rates for preferred resets do you have any suggestions on how to reasonably estimate BOC rates? I know rates change and forecasts are subject to unknowns but I'm looking for a reasonable tool to use estimates of future reset dates.

ie. current consensus for Apr.30/2023, December 31/2024

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I have been tracking these 2 companies for months. I had come to the conclusion that ANDE would be a more reliable investment going forward for the long term. To my surprise in the last month FDP went up 25% and ANDE has declined about the same. Please give me your thoughts on which company has a better prognosis. Thank you...your perspectives are always helpful.

Q: Dear 5i team.

I'm taking another look at QTRH, but I'm confused by the last year or so of Q+A.
In the latest Qtr, they reported what looked like breakout numbers. But, as I look fwd to next qtr, revenue goes back close to previous running rates. Can you explain what's causing the lumpy numbers? (did they sell wilan?)
In previous questions I believe the estimate was 1.50/share in cash? Is this still the case? If so, at 1.75 today, looks like a screaming buy with a 2.5% yield. What am I missing please.

Many thanks for your help.

Q: Just a note of interest about ATZ. I visited one of the mega malls 2 days ago and it was fairly quiet except for Aritzia. It seems to me that people still want their products especially young women. With this in mind is it not possible it could hold up through a minor short recession which is being touted? I would like to add today before it reports.
Much thanks

Q: Hi

You have previously ok’d JEPI as an income etf.
I already own JEPI and am considering JEPQ. As you have pointed out upside is capped due to the covered calls. BUT I like the income stream.

Would JEPQ be a good complement to JEPI?

And are the payouts something that can be counted on …. Barring some unforeseen calamity ?

Thanks.

Q: Without naming every company - I have full positions in most banks, insurance cos., utilities, pipes, telcos and renewables,

This is where I see some relative safety and the best yields.

With the dip and yields improving are there any names that stick out as very attractive and safe in going a little overweight on?

Q: Could I please have your thoughts on an article in the Globe and Mail (july 4)with regards to CEO compensation in particular Shopify CEO with more than $25 million in salary and another $25 million in stock options in a year when the stock has lost 75% of its value. On a positive note I see CSU Mr. Leonard still owns more than 1 billion dollars in stock with no stock options.

Q: What are your thoughts on IQLT in this current environment? It does have a heavy weighting in Europe. Are you presently concerned about further deterioration of the European economy ?

Without trying to make this a question about market timing, would it be best to wait to add to one's current holdings? I am close to the desired weighting, but would like to top it up when things appear to be close to being at their worst. Wouldn't we all like to buy at the bottom ?!

Q: When looking for stripped bond offerings on my broker's screen, I can see an entry named Sagen Mi Canada that offer's a good yield with a credit rating of AH/BBB+. I know nothing of this company. Would you have any insight on the matter, or should i just keep passing on it?
Thank you
