Investment Q&A

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

Q: Is Alibaba more trouble than it's worth, for the average investor? It seems that at every turn, there is some new charge against it. I realize that huge companies tend to attract lawsuits, often very frivolous, just by the nature of their size, but BABA's charges don't seem quite as innocuous as those posted against others like Apple, for instance. What is your take, Peter, on holding this company? Do you foresee a "crash and burn" that eventually will take down the house, or is the risk/reward worth it? Thanks, as always, for your insight.

Q: Hi 5i: DCI seems to have resumed its downward creep today. Is there any particular news, or is it just a bad day in the market? The dividend is now close to 10%, which seems a tad too good to be true. I'd appreciate your advice on this one. Thanks.

Q: I have just read Ryan's article on "Perfect Stocks". The first thing I did was add the dividend yield to the table and, of course, Torstar jumped out at 8%. Then I looked at the chart for TS.B and was surprised to find that this 'perfect' stock was $20 10 years ago, $9 5 years ago and is now about $7. What is 'perfect' about this performance? It makes me question the significance of the criteria that were used to judge excellence.

Q: What are your thoughts on the quarterly results (they always seem somewhat messy with adjustments) and the outlook going forward? Recently a comment on BNN was made that its a "mini BAM (Brookfield)" in the making.
Thanks
