Investment Q&A

Q: Hi,
I was wondering if you might be able to provide some insight on New Relic (nyse). It appears to be highly overvalued , yet continues to grow it’s share price. Are future earnings expectations so large that they are causing this change?
Thank you.

Q: Good Morning. In addition to my Canadian holdings, I have a well diversified of large cap US equities, most of them return a small dividend, all of them highly are highly affected by the news of the day, hour, minute.
As this ETF, returns a decent dividend, year after year increase in value & would diversify my holdings into small-cap stocks in sectors less available in Canada, do you think it may be a wise investment, as an alternative to IWO? I think, perhaps unreasonably, that small cap companies may be less subject to "news", because if these politicians mention CAT or say FB, as examples, everyone has an opinion, however small caps daily fly under the rhetoric radar.
I am not trying to hide from volatility by selling large caps to take a position in small caps, just trying to reduce it overall, in my holdings.
Do you know of any other US EFT, that is similar in nature to this one?
Thank you so much in advance.

Q: RBC direct investing is offering a private placement at $76.15 while the last trade was at $78.24, does it make sense to place an expression of interest. Secondly what does the following mean. " Please be advised that if you participate in this new issue offering, RBC Direct Investing will receive a selling concession equal to C$1.43 per share"
If i expressed interest in owning 1000 shares would i actually get less? Please help me understand the math and logic behind this?

Q: Is the dividend safe?

Q: HI 5i,
I purchased ($1.90) Photon from analysis of this company, I'm very pleased with my purchase (THANK-YOU). My question to you here is, my position is just considered a toe in position, do you think taking a bigger position or adding more at this time is prudent?

Q: I'm not complaining, believe me, but why does CSU keep going up and up? Is it because "everyone" is waiting for it go down? Any specific reasons? Thank you.

Q: If you were asked for 5 top stocks recommendations to invest in in the USA what would they be ? RAK

Q: What are your thoughts about the above stock with what is going on with the tariffs?

Q: Since Pure was bought out at a healthy premium, all has been quiet on the merger/acquisition front. You would think with the US dollar at a hefty premium to the CDN dollar that more US companies would be interested in gobbling up a Canadian company. I know—no crystal ball—but do you see any possible attractive targets for a US company.

Q: What are your thoughts on utilities and Canadian telcos closer to the end of the interest rate cycle? Thinking of letting the insurance stocks I hold appreciate further in value and selling some to buy Canadian utilities and BCE and Telus since i own no shares in those three now and they will probably fall further. ???????

Q: Recently, I got cash from AAR.un buyout from Blackstone.

Will you favour one over the other ? Or split the funds equally on both ?

Thank you

Q: Which of these two would you choose for a long term hold for income?

Q: Derek
You need a Cdn. & US brokerage a/c.'s
e. g. you buy 100 shs. CSU in your Cdn. a/c.
After settlement call the broker & tell them to tfr. the 100 CSU to your US a/c. Now the US div. will go into your US a/c. Should not be a problem buying CDN Co.'s that pay US divs. & accumulate those divs. in your US
brokerage a/c.

Q: For your member looking to receive USD dividends after buying a CAD stock:
You should be able to buy BIP.UN or BEP.UN in your CAD trading account then have Scotia transfer the position to your USD trading account and make an election to receive the dividends in USD. This way the dividends will be paid in USD and remain in USD. From there the cash could be transferred to your USD bank account as needed.
