Investment Q&A

Q: Hi team,
I am not sure if this is a question or a comment. My curiousity was raised earlier today when I read a question from Kenneth on MYM. I thought I was the only one who heard of it and it was barely for me as it was only a week ago. Many years ago, I used to dabble in the penny stocks but that is usually a losing game. These days I am mainly a large cap momentum style.
Anyway, through a friend of a friend out in Vancouver (you get the picture), I heard of MYM and PUF a week ago in the cannabis space, planning to build a greenhouse in Australia. I think MYM owns 25% of PUF who is leading the construction phase of the project in a joint venture with a construction company that I think is really a company. So, I think there is a question here. Is PUF the best symbol ever for a stock and are its prospects just another puff of smoke?
Thanks again,
dave

Q: Disappointed in NFIs stock performance this last month - down about 14%. I regarded this as one of my ‘hang on and ignore’ stocks. I can’t find any negative stuff on it - seems all positive. Is it tax selling this early? I realize it is up on the year so I suppose this could be it. I think I am missing something tho. Pls enlighten me. Thks guys.

Q: comments please on the quarter?

Q: Here we go again.The underwriters try to push the stock as high as possible,but in this case of ENB with limited success.After market closed today ENB announced it is going to the market again to raise financing to the tune of $1.5b of private placement of 33.5m of treasury shares @ $44.84(recent 52 week low of $43.91),At the same time it reconfirmed 10%pa increase in dividend for a number of years.Please advise who are the lead underwriter(s) & underwriters.I guess BMO is one as it did a glowing report in G&M @ end of last week.My purchase @ $50 is 10% higher than the. $44.84,so hopefully the gap can be bridged.Thanks for u usual great views & services.

Q: I am a holder of SYZ, IMHO they have the worst website for shareholders I have ever come across. The only good thing is a link to Sedar. Why not have a list of press releases at a minimum for easy div. date reference. Not acceptable for any Co. never mind it's a computer Co.
If you agree you would have more clout with SYZ.
Please contact them.

Q: Hello

Have about 1% in ALA ($29) and HR.UN (21). To reduce number of stks to watch I am considering selling one and adding to the other. I think ALA potentially has far better upside. Your thoughts?

Q: Peter, Maybe I’m not seeing this correctly but it seems to me the double financing by ENF and ENB today are a excellent opportunity to buy great companies at a discount - and get paid very well at the same time. Is there a value trap here ? Thanks. Rod

Q: Gentlemen Good morning.
For TMX, BAM.A is in Real Estate sector, but as a holding company, it seems to me the Financial sector is more appropriate. Your opinion ?

Love your valuable service.

Jim,

Q: Good afternoon 5i. I own the following stocks. Today there`s been talk about possible sector rotation of funds going from tech to financials. The Nasdaq is down 1.3% today. My portfolio stands as of right now at 22% tech and 15% financials. Would you recommend I leave my portfolio as is or should I lean more towards financials going forward?

Thx/Rob

Q: If confidence is high on GUD, am I better to buy some July 2018 calls?

Q: Which name do you prefer for a 3-5 year hold ?
Thank you,
Philip

Q: I just read a Globe and Mail Business headline which read as above: FANG meltdown and then the article talked about face plants, sector roatation etc.

In you opinion, is there something truly fundamental going on here; and do you see a need to bail or significantly reduce exposure?

Or is this another example of “Big Noise” and sensationalistic reporting .... and as you often suggest “stay the course”?

With significant holdings here I am hoping your advice will be to hang in there and maybe even add to some of the FANGs.

Thanks

Q: Why is it dropping so hard today?

Q: Dear Abby .... I mean 5i : Given the industry’s past-habit of over building capacity in good times, I half-expected Micron to weaken a bit. Notwithstanding that, I also read that the foundries had learned their lesson and were no longer jumping into adding capacity. The sudden and scary drop from impressive heights in MU’s price doesn’t look wholly justified. Although the share price increase may appear dizzying, it isn’t THAT much when one looks at multi-year price-history. For exemple although this year’s chart shows more than a doubling in price, I show 30 odd percent gain, having held MU for several years . I checked the financial sites and didn’t see much that explains the suddenness in price drop . Morgan Stanley unkindly dropped off on Monday a negative blurb on chip makers and most Semi’s dropped after opening on Monday. I read the said report and was not as convinced as Morgan Stanley seemed to be. I later saw MU had a positive report (Baird) . Obviously, I am missing something important . I am much too shy to ask to see your Bloomberg terminal . Your insight and DEEPER look and subsequent comment into this issue would be most appreciated.
