Investment Q&A

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

Q: I'd like to echo Adam. I owned ECI prior to today and was thinking of adding to the position. After a BNN guest panned it on Monday I was instead thinking I should perhaps cut and sell. After your quick reassurance yesterday I added to the position. This is the value of this site; letting people who are not experts in business finance and don't have the time to monitor the finances of every company they invest in ask a simple question of those who are and do.

Q: Just recently discovered that my daughter (30 years of age) has been investing in this company through mutual funds. Could you please do a thorough review and advise which of the funds that they offer are best for a long strong solid growth vehicle and taking also into consideration the least cost in management fees(mer's).
Many thanks.

Q: Hi Peter,

Currently own CHE.UN - have been following your comments/answers & appreciate your answer to my previous question re: 4.6% drop on Aug 8

Your comments "stock not cheap" (P/E is 15 = not bad?), dividend not increased in 10 yrs (but currently 8% = pretty good & sustainable), downgraded by Desjardins from $19 > $17 (but currently trading at $14.7 = undervalued?) with 3 yr price range between $15-$20

That said, what is your outlook for CHE.UN and would you consider a BUY (more for income vs. growth perhaps?) - if not, why?

BTW - have made money on most of your insights - THANK YOU

Q: Hello 5i Team

The passive index fund industry is dominated by BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street. Seen together, these three giant, passive asset managers already constitute the largest shareholder in at least 40 percent of all U.S. listed companies and 88 percent of the S&P 500 firms. What are your thoughts in terms of the big three controlling the corporations and what happens when there is a market correction or meltdown. Would there be any buyers left and also individual stock investors could get into deep trouble.
