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 owned this stock for some time and am in the fortunate position closing in on a double bagger. In similar fortunate circumstances I would normally sell out my original investment in 2-3 tranches.

ABB is a leader in industrial robotics and is evolving its electrification business (among other services) Both of these businesses make me hesitant to sell, given the growing AI influence on the world's industries. Power and robotics would seem central to the theme.

I would appreciate your insights on the AI theme and how well ABB may fit with the idea over the next 5-10 years. Understanding of course this is a Swiss firm and not one you follow closely.

Q: Currently the Chinese market is on track for its 4th down year in a row, which is pretty rare for a global market. The contrarian would say that this pendulum has to swing back the other way at some point here. Fundamentals on many large names have detached from expectations, with names like BABA, TCEHY, etc showing FCF near record highs while share prices are at multi year lows. How do you feel about investing in these names, and if you did recommend any which would they be? Thx

Q: hi 5i,
what are you top picks for non-Canada core ETF's for long term hold/accumulation? im looking for US markets, European, Asia, and India. I like very liquid entities, and a dividend is fine. If possible, can you include both hedged/unhedged to $CDN. I notice that most of the unhedged versions of the ETF's have higher annual returns-do you recommend hedging or no hedging for the $CDN?
thanks, Chris

Q: Good Day 5i,
I have been following semiconductor companies in China. Their growth is very impressive. As an example, of the 68 companies latest financial reports, 40 reported over 50% growth. This is largely fueled by internal legacy chip demand, a huge market lost by US sanctions.
Which leads to ask how to invest in the Chinese markets?
Many thanks, Yan

Q: Vale has taken quite a drop since the beginning of the year (now at 5.2x PE). Dividend seems to be highly variable over the last few years. What are your thoughts on the safety of the dividend (seems to pay every 4 months ... are you able to confirm)? How about the payout ratio Do you think the annual dividend can stay above 9% going forward ?
