Investment Q&A

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

Q: Following up on my previous question, could you please rank CEG, NPI and CSIQ with the others you mentioned before?

“ I am contemplating replacing Fortis with a greener utility. I already own BEP. What are your best suggestions please in Canada and the US and their relative risk rankings.

Answer:
We do like FTS; for other suggestions, we would note: PPL, FE, SO, DTE, H, CU. We would rank these: NEE, SO, H, DTE, FE, CU, PPL”

Thank you again, Michael

Q: Roku just dropped 20% today.
. This causes me to be at a loss of 35% ($1750).

My ROLU stake in my RRSP is now 4%

Should I sell my winning stocks and buy the ROKU dip. I was thinking to invest $3100 in Roku so that average loss would go to 17.5%..

Or should just sell Roku at this point and move.on?

Q: HI folks
Sadly, I am down on all of these somewhere between 60 to 95%!!! They mostly but not all started out as somewhat small positions 2 to 4 years ago! I have time to wait longer but: 1)are there any that are absolute failures and therefore should be sold. 2) Would you please rate the selIs from 1 to 10 ..10 being the absolute SELL. 3)How many years should I give these? (tough to answer but just a guess). I will not get much at all for any of them! Please take as many credits as you see fit.
Much Thanks and happy Family weekend

Q: How would you rank these junior gold developers (by assigning them each a number) in terms of their potential upside and being worth the risk of a small portfolio position:

PPTA, PRB, LUM, TLG, ITH, MAU, FF, CKG, LGD, ITR

Do any of them stand out as being either much too speculative to recommend or exceptional opportunities? Thanks for any additional comments.

Q: What are your top buys (3) right now if you were investing in a mix of growth, quality, and somewhat reasonable valuation? With your answer/explanation can you include fwd p/e or whatever relevant metrics vs peers?

Also, what's a quality stock or two you'd like to buy but would want to see come down a bit/something you'd be looking to pick up in a broad market selloff?

Q: So I've started to travel solo more (thank you divorce) and I've booked 2 different Airbnb at 2 different cities (Montreal, and Nashville). Both were excellently operated remotely and great value by a company named Sonder.

They appear to want to be a premier 5 star Airbnb chain. I saw the hotel run by them in Nashville and booked immediately- so they already have my consumer loyalty.

I looked them up and they're trading on the NASDAQ but at massive lows.

No one here has asked a question about this company, but it looks like a hold at $3 a share (from a high of $200...)

I am not an analyst- what are your thoughts on this company, future estimates for growth. I am guessing they are a victim of high finance rates hitting their profit margins - but then again,, who isn't.

Regards,
Jeff

Q: A dividend account, BCE down 16,%, BIP.Un down 14.5%, BEPC down 23%, DOO down 23% as well. Also own BN and BAM. Brookfield entities are 17% of the portfolio.
Do I sell my losers, knowing they're suffering from higher interest rates or simply stay patient?
Do you see concentration risk ? How high would you let the Brookfield entities run? I think DOO is a good firm but it could go. Please deduct questions as you see fit. Thank you in advance. David

Q: Hi 5i team. Your thoughts on switching ATS for either BYD or TVK. Looking for growth over extended time frame in a non registered account. Worry about the recent run up of BYD and TVK and wondering if I should wait for a pull back or if I should just stay the course after ATS pull back. Not looking to add another position in my already heavy industrial holdings.

Thank you
