Investment Q&A

Q: Good Morning any thoughts on RNX and how they are positioned with their huge nickel and cobalt deposits in Quebec to take advantage of the electric vehicle demand?
Thank-you

Q: CGX had quite a run up yesterday ,fell back to below even then finished the day with no gain. Was this due to the drop in attendance & does it signal a time to sell? Would it be a buy at these levels after its drop from $54.00 ? Comments on the dividend would be appreciated. Your ideas & suggestions are always much appreciated.

Q: Hi Peter & team,
So now it's MAXR's CFO is stepping down. Your comments please.

Q: Hi Peter & Ryan, when using sector ETF's such as Utilities and Health Care, would you take a full position or half in each. Do you have any others than those listed.
As always thanks for your great advice.

Q: Hi, I'm underweight industrials and currently only hold SIS and XYL for a total of 4.5% of my overall portfolio.

From the above list, and looking to hold long term with lower risk, could you rank your preferences and provide justification for the top two?

Thanks,

Cam.

Thanks

Q: Noticing the pull back in interest sensitive stocks recently, such as the utilities and the telecoms, I was wondering whether it would be a good time to bump up my allocation to these sectors? Or, is there more loss yet to come? I know you don't have a crystal ball so I am not expecting absolute predictions. But, you do have insight into market movements and therefore worth consulting. Currently my holdings are
7% in utilities when I think you recommend about 15% for someone at retirement.
and
7.7% where your recommendation is 10%

I hold the usual Canadian suspects plus BAC in the US.

If you think it would be right to fill up, would US or Canada be better? As I say, I most of these sectors are in Canadian.
thanks

Q: Hello ,
I currently own PLI in my TFSA account for one year and I'm very disappointed by this stock. What do you thing about the last Prometic's announcement : Realignment of its Clinical Program Priorities for 2018?

Q: Hi Peter and company,

I have a small TFSA ($9,000 invested in: SLF, AQN, ABT, PHO & PEO). Will be adding $20,000 within the next couple of months and $10,000 in each of the next 3 years, which will take me to age 65, which is when I expect to retire. I will have a comfortable pension when I retire.

Would appreciate your suggestions on where to deploy the $20,000.

Thank you.

Q: I purchased ECN after seeing it as a top pick on BNN. I'm down 14% on it. Should I move to something else or hold? Thanks

Q: Any possibility of an onex, kkr, or even an Avis style buyout of EFN. Buy or hold at these levels?

Q: May I have your thoughts on AAOI's quarter and prospects going forward at today's price?

Q: Hi team,
I am back to TTD again. I bought a 3% position (small for me) a couple of weeks ago. I was tempted to up it just before earnings but held off as U.S. tech can be very volatile and who knows how the market would react. Well, I guess the market approved as the stock jumped 20% on Friday. Hindsight is a wonderful thing! The U.S. analysts are very positive on the story and see a long runway of growth ahead. I think you guys also like the space but were cautious on perhaps someone like Google taking a serious run at programmatic advertising. What I am reading by the U.S. guys suggest that TTD has a competitive advantage over GOOG, FB, AAPL or MSFT as it is unbiased over what advertising platform it would recommend for a client while the big guys would direct advertising just to their own platforms. Would you agree with this thesis or are you still cautious on TTD from pushback from the big guys? I am thinking of topping up to 6% or so if the price settles down again.
Thanks again,
dave

Q: Do you think Pembina would be a good investment at this stage of the cycle?
Thank You

Q: I'm considering buying a 5% share in CC & would appreciate your input on the company. I'm concerned about the debt which was quite high last year.The debt is $2.6B with a net leveraged ratio of 1.8 times on a trailing 12 months basis. Is this coming down or increasing?
The businesses, all three, seem to be doing quite well.Do you agree?Will there be further share repurchases or is it finished.What is the EPS & the free cash flow based on the US tax reform? Is it a buy or should I pass on it?

Q: I hold the following in my TFSA: dol, dsg, gud, kxs, pbl, pho, sis, toy and byd.un. I have cash to add another position or increase some of the current holdings. All current holdings are less than 5% of total equity holdings. According to TMX dol and dsg are the lowest rated as low moderate buys and pho is not rated. I expect TFSA holdings to at least double and without crazy volatility. Please advise what I should do. Any changes? Thank you.

Q: How is it legal that insiders have been selling stock in their co. during the quiet period, knowing that the results would be poor?
