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 one income account where I have a core of stable companies (BNS, BCE etc.,) and strategically move into beat up names where the yields are temporarily very high due to what I anticipate to be a short term fall in the share price. Generally I am looking for something over 6% in this equation at the time of purchase. Do you see any candidates for such a strategy? Thank-you. Love your service btw. Best money I have ever spent.

Q: Hi Peter

In the latest update to the income portfolio, the entire position in TCL has been sold to invest the capital in other quality names.

Is it possible to let us know some of the names you have in mind for deploying this capital?

Q: Further to yesterdays Q and A re HISA, Evolve's US dollar savings account. Not yet a month old and less than $30 mill invested so far, is this a safe place to park my US dollar account cash i.e. equivalent to my Canadian cash parked in PSA?
A few months ago I asked if there were any US dollar savings accounts similar to PSA and you didn't know of any. Are there any other offerings in this space that should be considered?
Thanks. Peter

Q: Hi Peter

I need to park some cash for a condo purchase in about 6 to 18 months. I'd really appreciate your advice on how to do that with a product that is guaranteed and that I can cash out at any time.

A one year cashable GIC currently pays 2.25%.

What about Money Market Mutual funds? TDB2914 pays 2.73% but is it guaranteed?

In one of your answers, you referenced PSA as basically a high interest savings account. Are there risks with this? According to Yahoo it yields .93% and according to the Purpose Management Fund website it yields 3.3%.

Is your advice on this changing with the recent rapid rise in interest rates?

Thanks so much Peter!

Q: Hi, I apologize if this question gets asked a lot but I'm wondering if you could provide me with your thoughts on where you see the market heading. It seems inflation is persisting, although Kevin O'Leary I think made a good point the other day when he commented on how the USA inflation numbers stats don't reflect recent price declines in housing (there is apparently a 6 month or so delay on these stats). I keep hoping to see a recovery getting started but there seems to be little reason for optimism. Thank you.
