Investment Q&A

Q: Hi 5i,

I would like to understand how to identify Canadian's stock market in bubble or not.
I have verified the current data with Bloomberg for S&P/TSX Composite Index, P/E Ratio: 24.12, Price to Book Ratio: 1.734. In your experience, what PE or Book Ratio will consider in bubble. Perhaps, any suggest method may better help to identify in bubble?

Q: Could you please tell me a little bit about this company?
Why was it trading so high a few years ago? Was it all froth?
Cell phone app patent to emit UV to wipe out covid? Really??
Thanks

Q: I'm 2 years from retirement. I will have a company pension. Within my dividend growth stock portfolio, I've already reached my dividend income goal.

With all the money printing and worldwide government debt, I am looking to increase my gold exposure in attempt to diversify one step further, and (hopefully) provide some investment protection. It may not be the '70's all over again, but hard assets seem to becoming more attractive.

I would like to increase my gold exposure to 20%.
I know weighting is a personal choice, and I know you tend to moreless limit weighting in a given stock to about 5%.
Currently I am at about 5% with CEF, and only about 1% with GDXJ - to potentially provide a bit of torque. I would like increase those weightings to 17% and 3% respectively. Is this reasonable? I don't know if there is really any benefit in splitting the bullion exposure to CEF / PHYS, do you?

How do my NTR (5%), CMP (1%), DBC (1%) commodity investments fit into this picture? Should they be part of the 20% or would you consider those as a separate sector, and thereby figured separately from the overall weighting?

Thanks.

Q: Your comments on their latest quarter please, thanks

Q: How do you suggest investing US funds to earn some interest that are held in a Canadian bank’s brokerage account for short term holding?

Thanks, Bryan

Q: I have a diversified equity portfolio (60 positions across most sectors, tilted towards higher quality equities, with overall ~5% gold equity allocation (XGD, FNV, AEM). I am interested in a single silver equity pick to comprise about 1% of overall equity portfolio. First, is this a reasonable plan in current investment environment? Second, which security would be a reasonable choice (based on investment newsletters I receive, I am considering one of SIL, PAAS, HL, or SLV; all NYSE). Feel free to suggest another security, if you favor another.

Q: TD Waterhouse has BIP as a buy. It uses two valuation metrics. EV/EBITDA and P/FFO. Which is better in your opinion. Why don’t they use P/E. Final question, is there another company I could use to compare against?
Thanks.

Q: The 12 month low for bmo was $55.76 and for bns was $46.38 a difference of $9.38.
On aug 14 bmo closed at $78.03 and bns closed at $57.68 a difference of 20.35 in favour of bmo.
Do you think that a major reason for the weakness in bns is due to the coronaravirus in latin and South America and as it continues it to spread should I switch from bns into bmo or is it too late?

Q: Any information and your opinion about JAMF will be appreciated. Thanks.
