Investment Q&A

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

Q: I have held NTC for some time, and I am wondering if the company is in a death spiral, or if has a chance to rebound at any time in the future. Selling at this time would yield very little, so I would wait if there was any chance for this company to do well if conditions change. Thanks so much.

Q: Thanks for your suggestions. To my earlier query; and you can ignore it if you wish.
At a generic level and in a later inning bull market such as it may be now; would you be comfortable with a leveraged investment strategy considering one has done well in the earlier innings. Or would you favour shutting down and bring your closer earlier in the game i.e. get defensive.
If you thought it was okay to leverage your earlier innings gains, would you suggest investing in growth stocks looking for home runs or load the bases one by one? Too much of baseball analogy, but I always look for Peter's comments be it in print or TV or in this forum.
Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i team

I own some Perrigo and Mylan is trying to take over the company sending the share up.

Now we have Teva trying to take over Mylan...and Perrigo rejecting Mylan's bid.

In your view, what are the chances of Mylan increasing its offer as a strategy to escape from Teva and what would you do with shares of PRGO?

Thx

Q: Hi Peter,

Had you written the article on PFD shares and I read it about 5 years ago I would have probably been much better off.

At any rate over the years (since the financial crisis I invested in many Pfd share resets, all at ipo price.

Amongst them are :AX.PR.E, DRM.PR.A, DC.PR.B, FFH.PR.F, NPI.PR.C,AIM.PR.A,INE.PR.A and C, PPL.PR.G AND TA.PR.F.

Obviously I am not concerned about the solvency of these companies, however I am underwater substantially on all of them. Can things get worse and can they fall further?

Or should I hold my nose and just keep them?

Small portion of my overall portfolio and income from them is marginal. I am retired.

What say you?

Thanks
