Investment Q&A

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

Q: While Cielo seems to be getting its act together my take is that current work relates to pilot plant development and it will be some while yet before capacity, and revenues begin to emerge. Do you have a time line that might be used to commit to a worthwhile investment and what product competition they could face roughly within that timeframe?

Q: I'm interested in these ETF themes, how would you rank them long term? Do you see any overlap between ICLN and LIT? And if I wanted to go the individual stock route instead of the ETF, what would be your top two individual stock picks within each ETF (either cad or us listed). Thank you!

Q: With respect to Ben's question, as long as he keeps documentation of the January 2020 conversion price and his 2020 tax return he will not have to pay double tax on the CG when he does sell BYD. CRA will have that information in their files as well. As long as you have supporting documentation CRA will not double tax you. Ignore the T5008 if it shows ACB of $49. When you call CRA, you typically get the most junior clerk.

Q: Good Morning Peter & Team,

Morgan Stanley called MG an auto supplier standout. MG reports first week November. Are you able to give us an idea what to expect? Positive or Negative???? ... considering the supply chain concerns (now [hopefully] waning) and of course the ongoing chip shortage.

Thanks for all you do

Q: Looking to add exposure to consumer cyclical for an income portfolio, already hold NWC for consumer defensive in the retail space. Secure and growing dividend and low risk are key criteria, would you recommend one of these as a strong buy today and why? Or split the difference and buy both?

Q: This ETF interests me but I really have very little understanding of convertible bonds. Can this fund be considered a pure fixed income option? Having been burned twice on preferred shares I’m a bit leery on two fronts, investing in things that are neither equity nor fixed income, and investing in things I don’t understand. CVD has held up over the past 5 years while delivering a pretty good yield. What are the risks going forward and would you have any concerns about capital preservation?
