Investment Q&A

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

Q: I originally purchased Enbridge early this year at $65. I purchased more at $49. Today it is $43 . I am contemplating averaging down again and buying more. Do you think that is a good idea or do you think Enbridge is still likely to go lower still?? (I thought $49 was a low). Thanks for your opinion.

Q: Hi Peter and 5i team,
We have shares of Com dev and we are thinking of selling [ in TFSA ]. Do you still think that MacDonald Dettwiler or another company will make a better offer? Do you have any suggestions for another growth name keeping in mind that we hold the appropriate percentile of large caps and bonds.
thank you for your advice

Q: Hi team:

SGY just released its 2016 capital budget and guidance after closing today. Do you think their presented scenarios are realistic and attainable?

I'm down close to 50% on this name and I wonder if I should rough it out for another year, or just give up and do a tax loss selling before YE. I would have done that already if not for I'm already sitting on a big capital loss position for 2015. No need benefit to add more tax losses at this stage.

Your insight is much appreciated.

Q: Morning ... well the 'cat is out of the bag' much to my dismay our 2016 TFSA contribution will be back to the $5500 limit ...an added * was that 2017 would have inflation written into our limit amount. Basically that is how we got $5500 from $5000 was because of inflation. My question is would I be correct in presuming that 2017 may go up $500 ? and also if I sell from Non registered now can I buy the same stock in TFSA on January 4th or do I have to wait 30 days. TY for all you do during these most troublesome times.

Q: I see there have been a few comments about the new TFSA limits put forth by the Liberal Gov't. The 2016 limit has been reduced back to $5,500 however, they are keeping the 2015 limit of $10,000 in place. The big concern was they would pull back the $10,000 limit that the Conservative gov't put in place, yes going forward starting in 2016 it will be $5500 but they will not remove the $10,000 for 2015. This contribution room will always remain here, in other words if you didn't make a TFSA contribution in 2015 you can put $15,500 in 2016.

Q: I have about $55,000 invested in US stocks that I bought when the dollar was almost at par. I like all the stocks I have and I consider them blue chip long term holds and I prefer not to sell them. My question is do I sell them or keep them? I have CSCO, INTC, JNJ, SBR and DIS. Also if I keep them do I keep collecting the dividends in US and building a US cash portion which is what I am doing now or keep the stocks and convert the dividends to Canadian dollars. I am so torn with this since I am up like almost 30 percent on all these US stocks. Your thoughts please? I debate this everyday with no answer.

Q: Hello- I found this article interesting and concerning:
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/globe-investor/inside-the-market/big-yields-in-banks-preferred-share-offerings-raise-questions/article27653310/?cmpid=rss1
In your opinion, what does this say about the banks' need to raise capital, and about their long term view of interest rates and the economy here in Canada? Should we be nervous?

Q: Hello Peter and Team,

My direct Energy exposure is down to 2.5%. The only 2 that I have now are TOU and RMP. What are their survivability? Do you recommend I replace them for anything else? And what other company would you recommend for the other another 2.5% of my portfolio or would you recommend topping up my existing 2? Thank you,

Wes.
