Investment Q&A

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

Q: Not a question. Just to let your client know that have been claiming the subscription fee on my income tax for pass three years. Claim under investment advice. No problem. As long as it aids you in making decisions on your investments.
Another example subscription to G&M.
Thank you Peter and your team for your excellent unbiased advice.

Q: Investors seem very nervous about Wells Fargo. Just today (May 14th) someone on this site expressed some trepidation. What’s your opinion about buying Wells Fargo bonds at this time? One is for a three year hold, the other for six years. If Wells merged with another bank, how would that affect those bonds? Some are speculating that Wells could be another Lehman waiting to happen. Does that have any merit? Are their bonds safe? Thanks.

Q: Hello Peter,
While the god producers are leveraged to price of gold, it is also true that the market is forward looking and has driven the price up for the miners. So, is it gold miners or physical gold for now. Also, at this time which of MMX, KL, FNV, AEM provide the best bang for the buck. It would be great if you could rank them best first and perhaps I can take smaller positions in two; if the miners are still the way to go.
Thank you in advance for your suggestion.
Regards

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
Guess is a clothing company which caters to the young and trendy. It is international and has a high visibility brand name. I know retail is devastated and there will be bankruptcies large and small. However people still need cloths. On the plus side they have a strong international footprint, there online marketing is strong and there clothes are most affordable for there young clientele.So I am wondering if this company has what it takes to survive this crisis. I do own this stock and of course am underwater. So I wonder what to do...double down at such a low price, just do nothing or run from retail. Your thoughts are always of great value for retail investors as we manage our portfolios...thank you immensely.

Q: good morning, I am concerned that the move toward working from home and the probability that the trend will continue even after the pandemic crisis is behind us will have a negative impact on bpy given their exposure to the office space market.
Likewise they have significant holdings in shopping malls, and with the increase in online shopping are they likely to suffer a negative double whammy? Your thoughts are appreciated.

Q: I presently own Fortis and was thinking of selling it for a profit and buying either CU or ACO in its place.

It would not change the asset allocation in my portfolio but would increase my total annual dividends (for income)

A. Can you give me your opinion on the swap, pros and cons of such a move

B. CU or ACO, which has better upside potential (rebound)

thanks

Ernie

Q: Artis and RioCan are both trading at about a 50 % discount to their NAV. Both pay a good dividend. Would you invest in either one? Would you favour one over the other? Are their dividends "safe"? AX.UN is down nearly a dollar in the last two days. Is there a reason for that? Thanks for your insight.
