Investment Q&A

Q: Peter and His Dream Team
Recently, you stated there was no compelling reason to continue holding LGO..."moving on" was probably the best option. I am a share holder and of course under water. Now there is a new development...a strategic review. Do you think this has any real potential benefit?Also over a million shares sold near the close...is this just panic selling or has the ship hit an iceberg? Ha!Ha! Thank you for your information and insights...they are always valuable as us little guys try to compete with the big boys! Ha!Ha!

Q: Hi team,
I don’t see any questions for your thoughts on todays earnings for Crwd, Veev, CRM so I will ask for your brief take on earnings and outlook for all 3. The market has liked the results on all 3 today which was a nice surprise. Do you still view these 3 stocks positively and advise holding for the long term growth stories? Thanks and deduct credits as required.

Shane

Q: Please share your thoughts on their earnings. Thank you.

Q: Would like to take a new long term position in either BIP or BEP.

Can you provide earnings and revenue estimates for both?

Do you have a preference?

I see that you hold BEP in your income portfolio.

Thanks

Hello Peter

I am trying to decide if it is worth investing in either Keyera or Gibson Energy as both seem to be attractive stable little companies that just go about their businesses.

I would appreciate your comparative analysis of Keyera and Gibson Energy for a very long term hold. Can you comment on debt levels, quality of management, possibility of a takeover, liklihood looking forward of regular dividend increases, and the potential of each company for future growth.

Both companies have nice dividend yields now. but no meaningful increases in share prices so the only reason to own either one is for the annual dividends, but Keyera's share price has fallen from about $50 in 2014 to about $34 at present so the dividends barely make up for the capital loss. Similarly Gibson's share price now [about $20] is the same as it was in 2011 so no growth there either but at least you did get to collect some dividends along the way.

Gibson's dividend was up each year since 2012 but was flat from 2017 to 2019, and Keyera's dividend was raised annually from 2004 till 2020 with twice with no raises, and no raises from 2020 to the present so one wonders if the cash flows are a bit weak some years.

It seems to me that of the two Gibson, although a much smaller company than Keyera, may the better bet.

So in your opinion is there any economic justification in investing in either of these two little companies?

On the other hand maybe this is a wild goose chase looking at Keyera and Gibson and maybe it is better to just stick to PPL, ENB, and TRP.

Thank you.......... Paul W. K.

Q: Given North American renewed interest in nuclear power and a general trend in buying domestic can you comment on SNC’s potential in this space.Particularily given both Hydro Quebec and Bruce nuclear ambitions is there a better name to look at?

Q: Your thoughts on FVI ? Analysts do not seem to like it that much. However, it did much better than FR. Hold or replace with something else? Thanks.

Q: May I please get your thoughts on Peabody Energy (BTU). They had a decent quarter given the drop off in coal prices at the start of this year. They are buying back a lot of stock. Can I also get your general thoughts on coal (both thermal and metallurgical). Are there standards for regional coal prices (like WTI, WCS, and Brent for oil)? Thank you.

Q: Hi Folks,
In my TFSA I can only top up ATD or VISA to a full position at this time. Both are up considerably, all things being equal, may I have your opinion as to which one would be best topped up today.
Thanks,

Q: Do you think there is a risk that Telus would make an offer to take over TIXT now that its share price has been severely beaten down? It would be a brutal hit for existing TIXT shareholders but probly a very good move for Telus. I recall TD bank doing exactly this many years ago when they spun out their online trading business and the market didnt price its future growth very well.

Thanks.

Q: Could you comment on CRWD's latest quarter results? They must be good, the stock is up 9% today. Thank you

Q: Hello,

I just received in my brokerage account - WTS-CONSTELLATION 31MAR40, I know it is something to do with a warrant, but, I am not sure what it gives me or what it allows me to do, any ideas ?

Q: Im looking for a site (free if possible) which notes company's yearly and quarterly metrics such as ROE, ROA , revenue growth, eps etc going back 10 years or so. Morningstar used to have quite a nice table, under the heading KEY RATIOS, gong back 10 years on most stocks such as CSU outlining these metrics, but its gone from their site. It gave a great history of the company in a one page table.
Thanks

Q: Do all companies restrict questions on earnings calls to sell side analysts?

Q: Hi There, can you please comment on yesterdays news that US Health Services May reclassify Cannabis, and the positive reaction of the market? Do you think this will lead to US GOV starting to move forward on the Safe Banking Act and other cannabis-related initiatives toward legalization? In other words coukd it finally be time to jump in - I’m thinking CURA the No. 1 US MARKET CAP company.

Thanks!
Robert

Q: Could you provide your views on the recent trading halt and price action on Curaleaf?
Thanks, Hugh

Q: Morning 5i team,
I bough URI back in May 2023 and have done quite well over a short period of time. It's close to it's all time high and although it might have some more upside potential, it may be limited.
I'm thinking of switching from URI to AMZN for a possible better return.
What are your thoughts on the switch or should I stay the course or would you suggest a different stock to switch to.
I currently hold AAPL, GOOG, MSFT and NVDA in that account.
Your thoughts and reasons for your suggestions are appreciated.

Have a great day.

Joe

Q: Are lumber stocks bottoming out ? would you start buying ? what are you looking out for..interest rates ...

Q: Would I be able to move a portion the CSU warrants into my TFSA as an annual contribution?

Q: It seems the outlook for Uber is changing positively. Although I don't think it can be placed in the same rarefied space as GOOG, AMZN etc in the technology space, do you see it as getting to occupy the same space in the next 5 to 7 years (my time frame before drawing down).
Please briefly give your bull case and bear case for this tech co
