Investment Q&A

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

Q: I know you really like BNS but with TD at a 52 weeks low, would you pick it over BNS for a long term holding. (Building a position for dividend income)

Also, can you explain me if there is an advantage to own 2 full positions of banks vs 1 of bank and 1 of SLF (knowing that its your top insurance company pick)

Q: Are options always exercised when in the money?

i.e. I hold calls that expire in the money. Will my broker exercise them and put shares in my account? If I have no cash will they buy and sell the shares for me?

Say there are five thousand $60 call contracts in existence. Stock hits $60 at 4PM Friday. Will all 500,000 shares be called away from the writers? I have had this scenario happen to me and my shares were called away.

Thanks

Q: Could you please comment on the Q4 results reported today. The stock is down 21% from its high on Jan. 5/20 versus a 3% loss for the TSX over the same period. I know it is problematic with todays volatility and uncertainty but could you venture an opinion as to how you think this stock will do over the next 6 to 12 months versus the market in general. Thank you, Ian
