Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi 5i Team,

It's my view that the guys who run this company are pretty darn smart. As you recall the history of Tahoe Silver was that it was started by the former CEO of Goldcorp and purchased its main property from them. Tahoe is at it again recently getting into Gold, with a recent mine purchase. Do you see this as a subtle and shrewd move as buying at a bottom? I was lucky enough to get into Tahoe several years ago at $6/sh based on this same sort of hunch. What do you guys think? Many Thanks again.

Hello Peter

I was shocked the other day to see your answer to a question on Currency Exchange International CXI in which you say is is an American Company and thus deemed to be a Foreign Investment from CRA's perspective requiring a Form 1135 report. To me it seemed to be just another TSX listed company!

Is there any reliable way to find which TSX listed companies are actually Foreign or do I just have to search for the company corporate head office address and assume a foreign address is the key?

Are all US [and foreign] companies with a TSX listing considered foreign? And are Canadian companies interlisted in New York considered not foreign?

I wish to avoid the tax and dividend complications of foreign ownership.

Thank you.... Paul K

Q: Hi Peter,

Could I have your opinion on Bombardier Pref B ? I have about a 50 % loss if I sold today, don't mind the income but concerned about future down side. Would you sell and move on ?

Thx

Q: I bought Regal life style at a much higher price, I am thinking of averaging down, Previous posting indicated that you have positive views of the company. Doing my research I noticed that there is a high insider selling by ELAD Canada at current price, so I am reluctant to add to it. What is your opinion on the high insider selling for this company.

Thanks

Hello Peter

I bought Northwest Healthcare Real Estate Investment Trust nearly 2 years ago at $11.42 a share and I hold only a 1% position. The dividend is very good at 8.5% and I would assume quite reliable given the nature of the business. Do you agree?

However I am concerned that ever since I bought it the shares slowly have slid steadily lower over the last 2 years with lower highs and lower lows pretty much wiping out the income from the dividends. At present it is near a lower high [I am "only" down 18%] and wonder if I should just sell out and take my loss? My only two holdings in this sector are the 1% in NWH.UN and a 1% position in Chartwell CSH.UN.

Do you consider Chartwell to be in the health sector or in the REIT sector?

Should I just hold on to Northwest for income or should I sell it and add the proceeds to Chartwell which I think you believe to be a "better" company.

Thank you.... Paul K

Q: Hello Folks:
Even with the down-slide, we have have done pretty well with our hefty position in Gilead Sciences (20%). With their future profitability reduced somewhat by competitors,
would you stick with them or perhaps look for another name in U.S. health care sector or perhaps you could recommend an ETF. We are happy to continue with Gilead if you think best.
Thanks for your great service
