Investment Q&A

Q: I've done well with Boyd and am reluctant to sell, however the recent share price has been flat to down. Can you elaborate on growth drivers for this company. Considering swapping for CP for growth and slightly higher dividend or is more patience required.

Thanks

Q: Peter,

I am confused about the value of Quantitative Easing. The Bank of Canada has bought billions of dollars of government bonds, bidding up the price and consequently lowering the yield. I understand this a procedure enacted when interest rates cannot go any lower and they still want to boost the economy. How is this going to boost the economy? It is not lowering the cost of lending and is not creating any jobs. Is the only advantage is to create more liquidity in the lending market?

Thank you

Paul

Q: TD WebBroker assigns a negative $1.93 capital cost of TOI shares from the spinout resulting in a potential capital gain in a cash account greater than the current value of the shares - is this possible?

According to the CSU - CFO the preferred shares, which I believe CSU holds, will be merged with our SVS shares in future at which time the SVS shares will reflect the full value of the business. When will the merger take place? Does this mean our present share value reflects only future growth and could a bump be expected on the merger? Market cap shows as either $3BB or $6BB depending on where you look and does this number therefore reflect the total value with the pfd. shares? Share volume of 40K seems pretty light for an outfit this size, agreed?

Q: Any details with regards to the reasons for the 9% pop yesterday?

Thanks for your continued guidance.

Q: Current market volatility has me seeking companies that have 'wide moats' making them somewhat less susceptible to market noise. I would appreciate it if you would suggest the names of some American companies that you would consider to be 'wide moat' types of companies. If there are some that currently provide value this would be a bonus.

Q: Hello Folks:
For a number of years I was a satisfied Boeing shareholder, but switched to NOC and RTX when Boeing's problems surfaced (taking a $100.00 hit), subsequently investing in NOC and RTX.
As of today, how would you view and compare these companies potential; I do regret not re-purchasing BA when it was down as it is a strong contender in the industry, however do have companies such as GE in my rear view mirror.

Thanks so much for your good service

Q: Is there a market vehicle to invest directly in the price of copper ?
Thank you

Q: As a retiree, I invest in mostly growth stocks with little or no dividends in my non-registered accounts so as to manage my net income to avoid government clawbacks and high tax brackets. In doing my research, how can I find out how distributions and dividends being paid by a company will be taxed in the hands of shareholders? Do dividends from specific classes of purchased stocks taxed differently?
More specifically, how are the distributions from BAM.A and BEP.UN treated, and are any of these or other Brookfield stocks considered return of capital?
Any recommended reading in this area?
Thanks for your ongoing sound support.

Q: I see IFC has issued a subordinated Note which acts like a rate-reset preferred. It has an 80 year maturity with resets every 5 years based on the 5 year GOC. Is there a movement away from preferred shares as a source of capital or is this just another alternative? Put another way, should I as an investor include these notes in my toolbox for future capital allocations?
