Investment Q&A

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

Q: After you removed MX from your balanced portfolio, I waited a bit and ultimately sold for a bit of a higher price. I see that it's drifted back down to the $45ish range. Just wondering if this might be a good time to buy back in and whether there's anything in the short term that might send it back up to its recent high of $60. Thanks.

TORONTO , Jan. 20, 2021 /CNW/ - Neo Lithium Corp. (" Neo Lithium " or the " Company ") (TSXV: NLC) (OTCQX: NTTHF) (FSE: NE2) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Stifel GMP, on its own behalf and on behalf of syndicate of underwriters (together with Stifel GMP, the " Underwriters "), pursuant to which the Underwriters have agreed to purchase, on a bought deal private placement basis, 9,900,000 special warrants of the Company (the " Special Warrants ") at a price of C$3 .05 per Special Warrant (the " Offering Price ") for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of C$30,195 ,000 (the " Offering ").

Q: Tencent shares took a tumble when its market value hit $1 trillion yesterday. Besides some profit taking, there was also warning by an adviser to China’s central bank indicating that excessive liquidity was creating asset bubbles. The prospect that China will tighten funding conditions also threatens to derail Tencent’s stock rally. Do you think it's time to sell the stock or continue to hold? Thanks!

Q: What is the explanation for the drop, or inconsistency, of quarterly revenue from CRSP and is this a concern?

2019-09: $ 211 M
2019-12: $ 77 M
2020-03: $ 0.157 M
2020-06: $ 0.044 M
2020-09: $ 0.148 M

Their annual revenue in 2019 was $ 289.59 M and it does not look like they will come anywhere close to that number in 2021!

Thanks.

If you see potential, should I buy Telus common shares right now, or wait for the offering of the new shares?

Thanks

Q: In a $700000 plus portfolio, cash, TFSAS & RRIFs I own the following securities in the indicated percentages.
AQN-4.1%;BAM.A- 3.27: BEPC-2.08: BNS-3.69:
BYD-3.79: CAE-4.22: CAR.UN-3.6: EIF-4.13: ENB-3.1: GSY-4.73: KXS-2.6:LSPD-10.11: MG-3.36: PBH-3.37: SLF-2.5: T-3.79: TFII-2.94: THNK-1.55: VFV-3.67: VGG-7.94: WELL-4.14: WSP -4.28: CRWD -3.51: VEEV-4.47: Cash-5%.
Took profit and reduced positions in TFII and KXS. To deploy this cash, are there any undervalued securities that you would consider as an appropriate addition to this portfolio? I think that growth and value can be synonymous.
What are your thoughts on CRWD. Would you continue to hold it or look for better opportunities elsewhere. If so any suggestions would be appreciated.

Q: Hello 5i team, I need to assemble a large amount of U.S. dollars (~$25,000 for an investment near and dear to your hearts). I have used Norbert's Gambit for smaller conversions in the past, which works fine except that I'm sometimes tempted to 'play trader' and to time my transactions to pick up some extra dollars. But for this large transaction, I don't want to mess around. I know I can do the gambit with any interlisted stock, but I would prefer to reduce or eliminate the risk of a price move against me. Can you recommend a good investment vehicle for this purpose? Also, can the buy and sell be done the same day, or do brokers require the first buy trade to settle before I can do the sell on the US side? Thank you!

Q: Hello team, while I'm generally a buy-and-hold investor, I've actually done well in the past several months by buying Raytheon when it has a significant drop (to $50s or low $60s) and selling it after it quickly bounces up nicely into the $70s. It is again dropping towards the low $60s - and I do like the company and could be comfortable holding this longer term, for post-pandemic growth, etc.. Would you be keen on this stock for a longer term hold if one can pick it up in the low $60s? Thank you!
