Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hello,
I would like your opinion on this. Do you feel it is important to try and keep a certain number of stocks in your portfolio, based on the size of it of course. If you do, could you advise what "approximate number" you would have for each of following sizes of portfolios to give me a sense of how you would handle this:
-$100,000 portfolio
-$500,000 portfolio
-$1,000,000. portfolio
-$1,500,000. portfolio

Thank you
Margaret

Q: Currently I own the shares of RUF.UN, recently its share price fell due to the Hurricane Harvey which hit Texas, where most of the RUF.UN's real estate properties are. Since this is a one time catastrophic event do you recommend that I increase my position in this company. I see this company as a good bond proxy (dividend yield is approx 6.00%) with little volatility. The purpose of my investment is "income" and moderate price appreciation. Do you agree with my reasoning or do you suggest another company?

Q: Hi team,
The recently released Nintendo Switch has done very well and has a lineup of AAA titles in the development pipeline for release over the next 18 months. The modular design of the hardware itself suggests to me Nintendo might be pursuing an upgrade cycle similar to iPhone where consumers do not need to repurchase accessories with each new release. Please give me your thoughts on this and your general prospects for Nintendo. Thanks. IS.

Q: Hi Peter,

The recent drop in value for KXS is somewhat perplexing if this is solely attributed to the loss of one customer. We don't own the stock today but it is next on our list to purchase 1/2 to a full position. Do you recommend waiting for another few days or longer to purchase or would you purchase KXS now while it is exhibiting weakness?

Thank you for your advice

Debbie and Jerry
