Q: I purchase this stock in 2019 for 50.00 a share. It just keeps dropping and dropping.
With it now around 17.00 per share, is it finally a sell?
If so, is there another stock that could be purchased to hopefully make up some of the losses.
Thank you,
John G.

Q: This is a follow up to my previous question regarding impact on share prices if BOOK VALUE takes a hit at the end of Q 2.
My intent was to find out if there is any correlation historically between BOOK VALUE dropping and a proportionate drop in market value. (????)
Sorry for any confusion.

Q: DRM breezed through most of the last six months of market volatility, seeming nearly invulnerable in its steady upward movement. Then, at the beginning of April, it began a steady downward movement which has accelerated of late. It has lost 29% in the last 20 days, and 10% in just the last week. Is this decline in any way justified by events at the company or its debt level? Would you consider it expensive for its sector?
Q: It's interesting to think about "special situations" that arise in such a volatile economy. Let's say that with increasing mortgage rates coming, the rate of foreclosures is almost certainly going to increase. What are businesses that will do well in this case? In USA or Canada? I saw on social media someone mention ASPS, but curious of your take on the thesis and companies that could do well.
Q: In a rising interest rate environment - I always understood that insurance companies would do well since their liabilities would be discounted at a higher rate. However - I see that SLF is down 16% this year and MFC is down over 8%. Huh???
Q: I am considering selling Kinaxis in my TFSA and buying Descartes with the funds (I have significantly larger holdings of both companies in my investment accounts). Would you consider this a good investment decision?

Q: Hello - just curious on your thoughts on this company. Thanks.
Q: Hi Peter/Ryan I bought 500 shares of BIGG at 1.70 in my RRSP account back in Nov. of 2021, don't ask why, now at 34 is it time to bury this one.
Q: Hi,
I sold ATA and BYD for tax reasons as I was down on both. My original plan was to buy them back but we are now 30 days later and I'm hesitating as they are even lower. At this point, would you buy them back or look to other (better) opportunities. Would you be able to suggest same sector alternatives if I should look elsewhere?
Thanks

Q: Based on your best guess, how high do you think Prime rate can go and at what level will the 5 yr Canadian bond yield stabilized?
If the 5 yr Canada bond yield was to increase above say 5%, would it trigger a much larger stock market correction? There was not many alternatives to the stock market over the last many years in view of the very low rates. It seems to be changing to fight inflation. I am curious of you general comments on this. Thank you!
