Investment Q&A

Q: Good day, I know it has been like quicksand, but I'm already in (at slightly a higher price) and am wondering if there is some value in GE around this price? For short-term (tax-loss bounce) and longer-term. Your insights are much appreciated. Thanks.

Q: I have noted your critical comments from time to time about PLI management. We who have held this stock patiently for years and years share your frustration. But I think those who study the amazing product they are trying to licence realize it could well be a game changer for the sick people yearning for a cure. Anyone who buys into the drug field knows the process is long and tedious but if successful the prize is huge. So I am not sure it is fair to blame management for the delays; I think the system is what it is and we who believe in the product must sit and wait. I would appreciate your thoughts on my observations.
Thank you, Peter

Q: Hello,

Now that markets have certainty and are digesting the US mid-term election results, what sectors do you believe will benefit? Im looking for a few opportunistic US ETF investments to take advantage of areas that got beat up in (Red) October and are most likely to recover/outperform.

Thanks,

Q: I own OHI (2% weighting) in my RRSP and over the past year have seen a decent run up in the stock. The dividend is now 8%. Can I get your thoughts on the company, short position and if you feel a move out of OHI to either BIIB or PFE would be advisable. Or just add a 2% position in these other two companies? 15+ year investment horizon.

Q: SPB's Q3 looks good in terms of trending upwards in most respects. However, the market measures a stock's results based on expectations, In that case did the results meet those expectations for Q3 and the future? Also, is there any chance SPB will increase its dividends? It has been stuck at $0.06 a month for years. Thank you.

Q: I would appreciate your comments about Etrion.

What are your thoughts on AOC recent quarter?

Q: Comments please on recent quarter,,

Q: Did TSG screw up with their purchase of Sky Betting?

I ask because I wonder if the money would have been better spent partnering with major North American Sport Leagues instead? I can see a future (I hear this is the case with European football) where watching sports becomes more interactive with in-game betting or fantasy sports that is integrated and live as I watch. This could be through an enhanced subscription. How awesome would it be from my television remote to bet how many home runs will be scored in a game, inning, player, etc? With other gaming companies signing exclusive agreements I'm sure such scenarios will be channeled through their gaming products as opposed to The Stars Group.

Q: Hi,
My question is regarding the EFN.PR.C preferreds. Are they worth holding onto considering the overall company situation? My goal here is to protect capital at this point for this particular account.
Your take on these things is always appreciated.

Q: What are your thoughts on square's recent earnings?

Q: What were the main factors that drove TSGI's stock price from April to its high in June? And what has now been the main reason for its decline? Has anything fundamentally changed? I see that Poker, its largest revenue source actually declined in comparison to Q3 2017. Is this a big concern, or is most of it's expected growth to come from gaming/betting? Is there hope that when/if most States legalize online gambling that TSGI will earn more much revenue from this?

Q: in my portfolio , I have bns 20%,bce20% ipl10% enb10% ad10% and 30% cash. after this pullback , should I invest more in these holdings or go into a different sector , I need income as retirement is coming . thx Jack.

Q: Your thoughts on GSY recent quarter? This seems to be an extremely well run company...
• 34th consecutive quarter of same store sales growth
• 69th consecutive quarters of positive net income
• Compound annual growth in diluted earnings per share of 37.0% since 2001

Looking at the outlook for 2019 and 2020, revenue growth drops from (26% - 28%) in 2018, to (20% - 22%) in 2019 and (14 - 16%) in 2022 (they do note ROE will increase each year). Is this a concern? or is it just the reality of a company getting older or are they just being conservative. Last years Q3 2017 outlook was (16% ‐ 18% for 2018) (14% ‐ 16% in 2019) and (10% ‐ 12% in 2020) so they certainly beat 2018 expectations and have increased 2019 and 2020 since last years outlook.

Q: Hi Everyone at 5i! I am looking to pick up a growth stock in my TFSA. Would SQ or NEWR be a good candidate? Thank you, Tamara
