Investment Q&A

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

Q: I always have a couple of speculative stocks in my portfolio.(you know the fun ones that you usually loose you shirt on!) I don't usually deal with penny stocks, but this one seemed to be interesting. I purchased this stock at 0.20. Of course lots of rumours going around about this company, but not worth mentioning as they are not confirmed. The only thing I could see is they hired a new President and communications firm.

I would like your thoughts on this company regarding financials and new management?

Q: Hello Peter and 5i team,
We were surprised to learn that TIO networks is being bought by pay pal. At an 86% gain we are very happy. Thank you for the recommendation. At the end of the month we will sell our holdings. It is in my wife's TFSA. Her current holdings are ET, KXS,GUD,LNR,SJ, and SYZ. This is our growth account as we have appropriate holdings of large caps and fixed income in our other accounts. In your opinion what would be a good addition to our current holdings or would you recommend adding to any of our current holdings?
thank you for the great service

Q: Good Morning all,

Question regarding Russel Metals latest results, could you comment please? Also when I look at my sector allocation, it comes up as Basic Materials because of Steel...should I leave it there or move it elsewhere? Could it be more considered Industrial (even somewhat Energy given its customer base)? thoughts please & Thanks in advance!

Q: i currently only hold bns for financials. It has been very good over the last year. I'm thinking about adding slf (to hedge against potential interest rate hikes) and fsz for some extra upswing potential to balance against the security of bns. I'm 31 years old, they're all held in my tfsa, I'm thinking long term and am ok with risk. Do you have issues with either of these two? Is there others you'd prefer to accomplish what I'm looking for? Do you think rate increases will push bns down enough to make it cheaper to add to or is trying to get the timing right with that not worth waiting for?

Thanks!

Q: Boardwalk announced another lousy quarter! Generally, real estate markets move with a lag to the economy of about 6 to 9 months. Do you think Q4 could be a trough for Boardwalk? I am accumulating shares at this level. I think it is a good entry point for a long-term investor to add multi-family properties (defensive segment) as a good valuation. They are using this opportunity to acquire new builds and renovate their existing portfolio as well.

Thanks,
Jason
