Investment Q&A

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

Q: I've read your report about FCR and it looks like a very good company. I'm looking to buy it. On one hand it looks like an excellent time to buy right now as the RSI is around 30, on the other hand it seems to be in a downtrend for the last couple of months. What is your opinion on whether or not this is a buy right now. BTW, love the site, very informative, I just hope you don't run out of patience answering these crazy questions all day!

Q: Good morning, Peter:
I have a couple of big losers in my RRSP account. I think they may have bottomed out as there has been little change in their share prices for the past several weeks. I am reluctant to sell them because I can't claim a capital loss on my tax return, but then, there's also a lost opportunity cost if I hold on and hope for a rebound which may or may not occur. What would you do? Thanks and kind regards.

Q: Hi Peter, I'm interested in preferreds and wonder about the rate reset feature. Recently AGN issued 6 year rate reset preferred @4.5%. The reset in 6 years is equal to the 5 year Canada yield plus 2.94%. Do you think that yield potential will be sufficient to keep the preferred trading at about par in the interim?

Q: Just a comment as well on your suggestion with respect to Wi-Lan. I, too, succumbed to your choice in the contest, and am unhappy with the stock coming down. I'm prepared to check further your instinct and wait a while.Yet,is it realistic to expect their portfolio of patents to do the trick within 3 months of the contest selection ?

Q: What do you think of the total return prospects for Morguard Corp (MRC) versus Morguard REIT(MRT.UN)? (MRC has much smaller div, but seems to be the cheaper of the 2.)
Both look very cheap in terms of p/e, p/cf, p/b; leverage seems ok; am I missing something? Thanks
