Investment Q&A

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

Q: I received Class Action Notice for the above company dated March 1, 2022. It seems I am qualified to participate in the settlement as I purchased securities during the period Feb. 23, 2018, to Oct. 15, 2018. Specifically, I bought 413 RHT shares at $1.81 on June 21, 2018, and sold at $0.365 on Oct. 17, 2018. If I submit the Claim form how this would benefit me? Would Confirmation of Purchase and Sell documents from the TD be sufficient proof of ownership documents? As always, thanks for your comments.

Q: I hold both NGD (about 1.7% position) and AR (currently about 0.8% position, but initiated at about 1.5%) among my positions in precious metals. AR corrected significantly over the last few months, but the share price seems to be rebounding since lows were established shortly after the New Year. Both NGD and AR have been outmatched by KRR (just about 3% position) , which has performed spectacularly over the last several months. I feel like I am decently positioned with KRR, and was wondering your thoughts on consolidating positions around either NGD or AR. Would this be worthwhile, or is staying put the more prudent approach for this issue? Alternatively, would you suggest selling both and initiating a position elsewhere, or further increasing my position in KRR?

As always, I look forward to your comments, and appreciate your insights.

Q: Hello Peter and team, I have held a position in the company for more than 10 years. It has been a roller coaster ride with a couple of boom and bust along the way. Recently, it has been recovering fast, with Covid restrictions lifting and people going back to offices. Does this run up have more legs? Is it time to trim? What will the rising interest affect REITS in general? Do you see better opportunities in REITS (not limited to office REITS)? Appreciate your insight!

Q: I presently own Mawer US equity 108 and 150 global small caps
Would like your recommendations as to buying two more Mawer funds that are down a lot and may have some good upside in the next two/three years
Alternatively can you recommend an ETF instead of the mawer funds you choose since the etf would have lower fees
Finally would You choose the Mawer funds over the ETFs you recommend in spite of the higher Mawer fees with the expectation of better returns from Mawer ?
I would like to purchase with Canadian dollars
Thank you

Q: Hello, conservative investor and thinking about adding an oil and gas ETF into my portfolio and am looking at XEG vs HEE. Now, I know HEE writes covered calls, so I was surprised when looking at 5 and 10 year returns that HEE's return was lower than XEG. Conversely, in up years, HEE had higher returns than XEG. I would have expected this to the be the opposite. Are you able to say why this has been the case? Thank you.

Q: Hello 5i,

In our registered accounts we have BEP.UN, BEPC, FTS, AQN, BAM.A, BIPC, WSP. All of these stocks performed very well for 2+ years thanks to 5i. We trimmed each of the stocks to 1%-2% positions between August and October when prices were elevated with the intention of repurchasing if they dropped. With rising interest rates and inflation now it may not make sense to repurchase. Would it be viable to:
Retain one of FTS (2% position) or BEP.UN (2%) or sell both?
Sell AQN, BIPC,
Retain BAM.A and WSP, and increase each to 3% or 4% with the proceeds from the sale of the other stocks?
or Any other suggestions?

Thank you

Debbie and Jerry

Q: When I was awarded shares of PMZ I entered them into the program with a book value at the current share price, but in reality, I did not pay for the shares. Conversely the HR.UN became a 20% + loss. I'm wondering if this is okay or should the PMZ shares have gone in at 0 book value or the HR value be reduced to accurately reflect the performance of the portfolio.
