Investment Q&A

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

Q: I'm 47 and have a balanced portfolio. My 30 days has passed on CRH Medical capital loss - so I could buy it back. I currently hold SIS and GUD in healthcare - while holding CSH as real estate/healthcare. Healthcare represents 8% of my portfolio while real estate represents 3% with REITS such as CAR.UN CSH.UN HR.UN and small REI.UN. Should I relook at CRH or add another like SIA? COV is a little small for me, but looks interesting. I can wait until after October 25th to see how CRH reports.

Q: I would like your opinion on these 2 companies $bip and $bep as buys right now. Which one would you choose? Or would you be tempted to buy both? I also hold a small position In $BAM.A.
If I were to buy all 3 it would represent 6% of my total Portfolio.


Thanks as always,

Valter

Q: Hi Team ,
I am thinking about taking half-positions in AGT and DHX.B two companies that I have been following for a while.
AGT and DHX.B seems both interesting considering their long term potential in their respective market especially following their respective recent steep price drops that make them more attractive. I would like to have your opinion on these Companies.

I also want to add ET in my RRSP. Evertz is a bit intriguing, It seems to me that the market valuation is on the low side (Am I right?). The company seems to offer a good potential but the share price seems to be going nowhere since a while, any idea why.

What is your opinion on taking a position in ET at the current price level?

Thank you!

Q: What do you think of GREK as an investment (and why it’s been falling lately)? The only professional endorsement I’m aware of is James Thorne’s on BNN back in May. I’m wondering if it’s a good time to get in.

Generally speaking, do you frown on country-specific ETFs, or would you make some exceptions (like India or Russia), especially for long term holds? Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i Team,

Happy Thanksgiving! I am looking for 'sleeper' picks to tuck away and look at again 3-5 years from now. Other than GUD which you have been vocal about it being that kind of stock, could you recommend two of your favourites in each of the small, mid, and large cap segments of the market. They don't need to be new, they could just be unloved, unfollowed, or under appreciated. Thanks!

Q: I recently ignored my logic in staying away from "new" listings and invested in IBAT. In essence, I went with my gut based on my research and more than doubled my investment within a few days.

IBAT acquired technology in extracting lithium from brine, effectively reducing the process time from 24 months to 24 hours. No earnings ... It was previously operated as Rheingold. Has this been on your radar? Perhaps I should consider myself fortunate and bank my gains or hold on. May I have your opinion? Thank you.
