Investment Q&A

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

Q: BNS - Stock Charts on 05/28/24 as the next earnings, Yahoo Fin. has 03/01/24 as ex div. payment. The question is, if I sell on 03/02/24 will I receive the div.

LMN - I'm thinking of buying more of this stock. It appears to me that this is a good time, for it has traded sideways for the last week.
Question what is the outlook for this stock in 24/25 yrs.

PRL - Bruce Murray was on BNN Mar 19/24 and commented about Propel Holdings Inc. PRL-TSX. I checked on Yahoo Fin. and they indicated full year earnings 7 days ago beat expectations, but it doesn't appear the market was not impressed. What can you tell me about this company. Yahoo indicated some red flags.
So I would greatly appreciate your input.
Thank You very much Appreciate your service

Q: Here is another take on WELL:

Adjusted gross margin 43.7 % down from 51.3%

Adjusted net income $52.4 million down from
$ 53.7 million

Adjusted free cash flow $42.4 million down from $ 48.9 million.

I am in the camp of Warren Buffet and Charlie Munger who dismiss EBITDA. If you’re going to give a financial number before interest , for instance, you may as well exclude salaries ( or anything else for that matter ) as well.

I own WELL but will keep a closer eye on it. Please shot holes in my thoughts. Thanks. Derek

Q: Wealthsimple approached me with an 0.5% cash offer on the totality of my investments if i moved my accounts with them. The accounts - Cash non reg, + TFSA + RRSP are being transferred in kind. They tell me that they ELASTIC N V ORDINARY SHARES (in my RRSP) cannot be held at wealthsimple. I either have to liquidate the shares and maintain the transfer, or leave the shares in my RRSP at my current institution (investorline)

The ESTC shares are down 20% in my RRSP. so can't harvest a loss.

How would you proceed? If you decide to sell the shares, what would you move into? I am very tech heavy, but enjoy the risk and the rich rewards that come with being tech heavy,

If replacing, i was looking at some securities that took big hits recently AMD, LULU.

Any compelling ideas? Please advise, Thank you.

Q: Swiss Water announce their Q results a few days ago and the stock has responded nicely and volume has picked up. Although you lost confidence in the company awhile ago, I did not heed your advice. I kept my holdings as I was always intrigued by their decaffination process and thought it would eventually resonante with the growing health concious consumer and hoped that the long awaited 2nd line would materially increase growth. Can you please
1) analyze their most recent Q
2) comment on their future prospects, expected growth estimates and if they are a buy sell or hold.
3) what is a fair price for the stock
I wanted to keep the stock long enough to see if the second line (which took way too loing in my opinion) refueled their growth and market interest. I need an objective 3rd party to tell me if my faith has been misplaced or soon to be rewarded.

Love your service and balanced advice

Many Thanks
Scott
