Investment Q&A

Q: My gains accumulated over the last two years on BPY.UN is about to be totally wiped out in the last two trade sessions. I know BPY.UN is heavily invested in the U.K., for example the Canary Wharf, will Brexit have such an effect on its real estate holdings? Or this is an opportunity we can take advantage of and load up again on this stock.

You advise is much appreciated.

Q: Are there any real world scenarios where the Brexit negatively impacts Winpak's business over the long term?

Also, I heard a rumour, that as a result of the Brexit, no one is ever allowed to walk into a Tim Horton's again or order a Whopper (QSR). Can you confirm? ;)

Q: Good Morning,
Please shed some light on price weakness. Buy, hold, sell?

Q: could you give me details on fnv.wt.a , exercise price and length to expire. Date wt expires. Thank you

Q: In May you gave an opinion on this fund and mentioned currency could be an issue. I assume that means they invest outside of Canada. Do you know how exposed they are to UK and Europe? Given Brexit is this considered a risky stock? I like the yield but reasonable safety of capital is important too. Thank you for your opinion.

Q: This is a comment on Austin question this morning. Some fund companies and in particular Sprott charges performance fees even when the fund loses money. So in the example you have shown if the market went down by 50% and the fund went down by 30% the some performance fees are charged. So they get on the upside and downside, which I think it is unfair. I would like to see fund companies, charging only on the upside with a specific percentage of absolute return. Or better yet giving back what they earned in performance fees when the investor loose money.

Q: Given the reality of the Brexit there seems to be a lot of currency movements. Is CXI a large enough company and do they participate in currency markets in such a way as to benefit from the increased number of transactions?

Q: I have 50K US$ and wish to purchase 3 or 4 growth and income stocks on an American exchange. I was thinking of MSFT as one of them. Do you agree? Would you suggest other names. Thank you

Q: With the sharp drop in many European banks , are there any you would recommend at this point?

Q: Hi,
I caught Ryan on BNN last night and he seemed a little worried about IT. I own mostly balanced equity portfolio stocks and just a few growth portfolio stocks, with IT being one. Ryan didn't like the risk/reward at this time. Should I switch into one of his top picks like XTC, which I assume has a better risk/reward. Or on the other hand, should I just hold IT for the long term and ride it out.
Thanks,
Steve

Q: Hi Guys

Q: Hi Guys

Thanks Mike B

Q: Hi Guys

Do you think it is time to buy some hhl.un units at this time

Thanks Mike B

Q: Hi folks
Two questions.
I have held both these for some time in my wife's LIRA account. She can not access this for about 12 years, so a long term hold is very possible. Have held these for a couple years. Both are down about 10%, I have held on because I see the ETF as a long term play on our aging population, and ACHN (hopefully you have a little info with this) as a risky but likely takeout target down the road. I have trimmed this one down and made a bit of $ in another account with it, so it isn't as bad as it looks.
Looking back, which is always easy, there are better options, however I am in now and wondering if I should stay the course.
Don't mind volatility, actually kind of drawn to it. Any thoughts?
Excellent job btw, your cheap at twice the price!
Cheers ;)

Q: I want to have some exposure to mining and I wander if it is a good time to buy LUN or HBM? Which one would you consider, if any? Do you have other recommendation? What do you think about the sector at this moment? Thanks

Q: I did my Brexit Wed. and plan on staying about 50% cash untill after the US election. Would like some ETF's that pay a relatively safe div. Thanks Al

Q: I bought a little Magna on Friday. It got me thinking the tire companies should have steady sales no matter if people buy Ford, GM, Tesla, etc. or even just maintain old cars but they dropped on Friday as well. What are your thoughts. Is there a company you like?

Q: Saw BNN market Call with Ryan on Friday and another good, informative performance. I noticed when they listed 'holdings' for PBH, it showed a positive tick mark for guest position, household member and guest firm/affiliates. Only investment banking showed no involvement. I was surprised to see this as 5I sells itself as conflict free and I have never seen any possible conflict before. Comments please.

thanks
