Bad day for both New Brunswickers and Quebeckers, but good day for the TSX

My non-registered portfolio closed today session at a good $174 108.33 - and that is while having my precious Premium Brands Holdings Corporation (PBH) under the mark of $90 per share. Imagine what will happen when my PBH go over on the $90 per share, of if it even exceed it! That's quite exciting! I wasn't aware that NTR had any activities in New Brunswick, but its been announced today that NTR closed a facility in New Brunswick, Sussex. Its quite sad, as 430 jobs are being lost. Personally, I had to leave New Brunswick in order to find work and all of those 430 workers may have to leave New Brunswick in order to find work, but I really hope that they will be luckier than I had. Living among Quebeckers is no great fun. But I had been lucky my way, I had been able to exceed the $200 000 in net worth. I may didn't suffer for nothing after all, but its only money.

New Brunswickers aren't the only bad lucky ones. Rona is closing 31 stores in Quebec province. I don't know exactly how many jobs are going to be involve, but I guess its a lot.

My TFSA portfolio closed today session at $75 854.08, and my RRSP portfolio closed today session at $37 626.28. I was super excited with today 15 217.70 points.

What is next for New Brunswickers?

The TSX closed Friday session at a good 15 119 points. My RRSP portfolio closed this past Friday session at $37 288.38, my non-registered portfolio at $170 920.26, and my TFSA portfolio at $75 267.45. I currently, I have $800 inside my TFSA, ready to be invested anytime.

And during that time, Adrienne Clarkson is desperately trying to convince us that we should still give her some of our tax money... Just like Michaëlle Jean and currently Julie Payette, Adrienne Clarkson is not doing anything concrete to help Canadians. Imagine if we could put the money that is currently being wasted on the lazy Adrienne Clarkson at work and help indigenous peoples living North who are poorly living in homes that are no homes, and that no white would stand to live in. Imagine how many houses could be build and lives that could be improved, only for the best. Adrienne Clarkson only deserved to be publicly humiliated. And Julie Payette is currently not even absorbing her role... But that's not surprising coming from a Quebecker.

Sad day for New Brunswickers this past Friday. We have a new Prime Minister, but the Tories win. However, I have to say, I had been disappointed by Brian Gallant, I am not under the impression that he gave everything that he could for New Brunswickers. I was expecting much more from him. He wasn't able to highlight the positive effects of bilingualism for our province. With Brian Gallant, Acadians haven't increased or decreased their power, everything is the same as before. It's almost like Brian Gallant was just there to occupy an open seat, and nothing else. Just like Amir Khadir, Brian Gallant is leaving politic with nothing that we'll remember of. All I remember from Amir Khadir is that his daughter Yalda Machouf-Khadir caused thousands of dollars in damaged during the 2012 student protest movement. She should been kicked out of Canada. The family Khadir is the perfect example of an immigrant family who doesn't belong here. I am totally with Donald Trump, the US should not accept the caravan of migrants coming ahead. If they get through the US, those migrants could be tempted to continue their road to Canada, and just look what we got with the Khadir family: unwanted rats who are bypassing the law because they have the money it takes to hire good lawyers.

Calian Group Ltd. (CGY) made interesting gains this past Friday, after announcing an acquisition. Last week, the highest value reached by my non-registered portfolio was $173 000. This past Friday, the TSX finish lower, with 2 days of good in a row, it was totally normal. The TSX was made for ups and downs. What really matters is good result for the long term. The short term doesn't matter and that means that what happened on Monday doesn't really matter. I am however confident that I am about to hit on the 180k non-registered portfolio quite soon. 

Still no new investment ideas, I spent a good part of my weekend cleaning my little apartment and also got a new coffee machine.

Saying thank you and goodbye to AltaGas Ltd (ALA)

I ask for it, I pray for it, and I got what I wanted. My TSX is back in the 15 000 points.And now, I want my old 16 000 points back! PLEASE! (We'll see tomorrow if I am still getting lucky on my stock market wishes).
 
This morning, AltaGas Ltd (ALA) wasn't doing better, and I decided to sell, no regrets. I am ready to move on. Now, the only question remaining is in what I am going to invest that money in. Should I really be investing again in Fortis Inc. (FTS)? I always like to get something for my portfolio. For me, its like almost equivalent in term of love as shopping for something expensive, live a diamond ring or something like that. I have no diamond rings on my fingers, but I do have the best of the best stocks in my really awesome portfolio. And just saying, my non-registered portfolio closed today session at a great $172 203.10, my TFSA portfolio at $75 480.85, nd my RRSP, stocks only, at $37 774.41.

No new investment plans for the moment.

No more juicy dividend for AltaGas Ltd (ALA)

Finally, the TSX gain closed to 200 points, no too bad. Those gains had a positive effect on my investment. My non-registered portfolio closed today session at $171 122.60, my TFSA portfolio at $75 067.72, and my RRSP, at $37 564.45. Aecon Group Inc. (ARE) continues its road to glory with interesting gains. It took some time for ARE to catch up, but Ottawa didn't help the cause by rejecting ARE acquisition by a Chinese state-owned company. I like this kind of industrial stocks. I had great success with my investments in Toromont Industries Ltd (TIH) and WSP Global Inc. (WSP). It really fit me well and looks good on me. Thank you for the free cash TIH and WSP.

Wow wow wow.

Bad news for AltaGas Ltd (ALA) today, it will no longer pay a dividend and is kind in big restructuration process. I lived something similar in the early days when I was holding to New Flyer Industries Inc. (NFI). But NFI turns out just right and bring me a lot of $$$. Will it be the same story success this time for AltaGas Ltd (ALA)? Unfortunately, I don't think so. Natural gas doesn't seem to be a profitable sector for the long run. I got stuck with EnCana Corporation (ECA) in my RRSP portfolio and this stock has a real problem to go back to its old high value.

I would like my readers to stay away from natural gas stocks like ALA, and ECA. There are so many great stocks on the TSX, you can certainly leave behind those two little losers. Make mommy proud.

Anyhow, I have those two little losers in my portfolio, but I am certainly not a loser. I am looking forward to sell my ALA stocks and reinvest the money. I was thinking about investing in TD stocks, since the stock is trading low right now. I don't have any problem with selling stocks from time to time, when I have my reasons. Its always a personal choice, but the choice is all yours to take.

The stock market is a place of complete liberty. No one can restraint your orders, you are free to buy and sell whatever you want, whenever you want, no need to argue with anyone and its what I like about it. I don't like to waste my time, I don't like working in a "team", I hate having to deal every day with colleagues, I hate being gentle and polite. So the TSX is my place to do everything I want and trust me, I am taking over all the place. Me and that bitch, it's for life. That's why I have this crazy awesome portfolio.

In other words, I am really awesome.

Go go go TSX you can make it to the 15 000 points! PLEASE!
