Investment Q&A

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

Q: TFI International has indicated it will be offering 6 million shares for public offer.
Am I correct in assuming it will be at a discount to current market price which will put some short term downward pressure on the stock price?
If this is correct would it be prudent to sell now before the price is announced and buy back in when the "expected" downward pressure comes into play?
Thanks
John

Q: Can you please comment on this fund.. Performance over the past 12-15 months has slipped from its long term averages, and ,according to Morningstar, has been in the bottom quartile of comparable funds.over this period. Based on its holdings and asset mix and performance would you continue to hold this fund? What would be your rationale for your recommendation. If you think that the fund should be sold what would be a good replacement. I currently have a position in the Mawer Global balanced fund so would be looking for another name, Thanks.

Q: Peter, I hold these S&P hedged ETF's in different portfolios. The total fees for HXS are about twice that of XSP and VSP probably due to the swaps. When I look at the performance of these ETF's, XSP and VSP are almost identical, but HXS sometimes lags and sometimes outperforms the other two. I am not sure why that is, can you comment. Due to the higher fees on HXS, does it makes sense to own this ETF in a registered account?

Q: Hi, I previously asked about PH&N Global Equity Segregated Fund to which you used the F Series as a proxy, and felt it was a good fund. How would you compare this to the Black Rock US Eq Index Segregated Fund (Reg)? Both are offered through Sunlife and have a similar 5 yr return of 12.5% - 13.0%. If it helps, it says the 'underlying fund' is BlackRock CDN US Equity Index Non-Taxable, Class D. The 'underlying fund' for the PH&N fund is Phillips, Hager & North Global Equity Fund, Series O.
Thanks

Q: I would like to have a good REIT stock. Would you recommend buying BPY? Or do you prefer other REIT stocks?
I read the company did some buy backs last quarter. Do you see the stock bouncing back in 2020?

Thank you
