Investment Q&A

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

Q: Good morning,

I just wanted to pass on information to anyone that uses BMO Investorline as a platform. Starting today they have 80 ETF's where there will be zero commission on buying and selling. Here is the list of the 80 ETF's I think this is a great way to slowly add small positions commission free especially for the kids RESP.

Actually I do have a few questions now come to think of it. Do you think this is a good idea and if you were to pick 3-5 ETFS from this list and somewhat try to be diversified which ones would it be? If you can give me 3 to 5 from the list feel free to take credits per ETF you find.

Thanks

Q: I am considering purchasing BEP-UN. I already own AQN and BIP-UN. I have noticed that most of these renewable stocks have pulled back somewhat and I’m wondering if this would be a good time to pick up a renewable stock such as BEP-UN. what are your thoughts? Do you think that there might be one or two other better choices for renewables? Also this is for a TFSA so should I consider BEP instead?
Thank you for your always appreciated wisdom.

Q: I would like to buy shares in a restaurant company that stands to profit from the removal or reduction in Covid restrictions. I intend to buy this in a TFSA and hold it for a year or longer. How would you rank these companies in terms of expected overall return? Or could you recommend another company that might do better than any of these?

Q: Hi,

I saw a recent interview with Mark Bunting and Jessie Gamble (DKAM Investments) whereby Jessie was highlighting Vitalhub, Topicus and NeoGames. I have followed Jason from DKAM for years and did well by him.
There are already Q&A on the first 2 stocks but nothing on NeoGames.
Can you elaborate a bit more on NeoGames and whether it might be considered investable? I know they have a relationship with Pollard Banknote but not sure about their finance metrics, management credibility, ROE/ROI, competitive advantage, etc.
Can you also pls add this stock to your database as I tried to pull it up but it could not be found.

cheers,
SteveMc

Q: Hi,
I own DND and not so pleased with the idea of this company is considering going private. It went public not even a year ago. The sudden change of "heart" has me thinking if they are constrained in someway in being public vs a private company.
In any event, the $50.50 acquisition price proposal is low, in my opinion. A financing at that price was done no so long ago.
I am hoping this company stays public as its a great company and growing very fast.
I have decided to hold onto my shares.
In light of my view, could you please share your thoughts?
Thanks,
