Q: Hello Peter & Co,
I own CN.
I sold TFI in July (35% profit in 1 year) when it spiked after announcing its intention to acquire CSS. I also sold WTE in July (100% profit + dividends in 4 years) because of the poor outlook for coal.
I'm thinking of re-entering the trucking business: back with TFI? (perhaps I should not have sold it) or TMA? or MTL?
Seeking your guidance.
Tony

Q: Hi Peter
Sirius seems to be drifting lower every day with slowing growth. I hold a small percentage in my portfolio. Should I hold on longer, or sell for a tax loss. Thnks

Thanks!

Q: I'd like your opinion on Chartwell REIT (CSH.UN). Both it and Lesureworld (LW) have performed extremely well in the last 12 months, especially if you consider the dividends/distributions they provide and how safe/stable they should be.
I currently only own CSH.UN, and it represents about 10% of my overall portfolio. Would you maintain an overweight position or sell half and buy LW? Do you think the sector is overbought? I'm almost 35, and am ok with taking on some risk.

Q: I have held STN for several years now and it was always a nice steady performer. In the last 12 months it is almost flat but still over 12% off its highs. I have noticed that WSP has also gone very quite. Is there a sector rotation going on in this space? This is a stock that i have been overweight on, (7% position)and i am thinking of reducing to a 4 or 5% position. It has been a good year for small/medium cap stocks but STN is not participating. Any comments you have would be appreciated.

Q: Hi,
Despite my doing quite well on stocks in the last couple of years, I've discovered I'm still trailing the s&p500 which is up 17% annually in last five years. This is what couch potato etf investing theory warms us about - statistically very unlikely to beat the market. Two questions.
1) given that we can't expect those kinds of broad gains in next two years, and that everyone is chiming 'its a stock pickers market", would you still recommend a s&p etf for a 20% position for the next few years?
2) can you recommend a couple CDn and US S&P etfs for me?

Q: Trimac price dropped today, Nov 24, with 32,000 shares traded. Could this be related to news of Mullen Group trucking purchase of Gardewine, as reported in today's Globe & Mail. Thank you for the great service you provide.
Q: When I assumed control of my RRSP from the broker , I found OCV-UN in overly large amounts. Broker piled in at IPO price of $12. (Broker was dealer-advisor). I left the holding as was for the wrong reason, namely : OCV.UN has dropped significantly from cost such that monthly distribution is now around 9 to 10% p.a. I am uncomfortable with O’Leary. Are you able to suggest one or more ETFs that could take the place of OCV.UN? In the alternate, if you feel it’s OK to leave it alone for now, I would be thankful for knowing that.
Thank you and all the best

Q: Hi, Further to my question on 20 Nov., would you pls. clarify this: "TriQuint shareholders will receive 1.675 shares of Qorvo and RFMD shareholders will receive 1 share of Qorvo for each TriQuint or RFMD share held. At the closing of the transaction, the Company will execute a one-for-four reverse stock split."
RFMD holders will receive i share of QRVO, right? Will holders of TQNT receive 1.675 shares of QRVO or only 1 share of QRVO? Also, what's the implication of the reverse split?
Thank you!
