Q: greetings,

i currently own state street and am underwater and have been for some time. Getting impatient with this one and wondering if i should switch to JPM for a bit better growth and a growing Dividend. I already own WFC which i purchased earlier this year!

Thanks

Q: I have been holding this corporation for a few years. Although, it has performed to my satisfaction in the past, the current performance is quite mediocre, in fact, shares declined during 2019 (hardly covering management fees etc!) Is it time to sell?
What alternatives would you recommend.
Thank you, Team!

Q: Greetings 5i team,
I understand that the context under which the 5i team will answer questions is critical. A view to SELL a stock in one instance does not necessarily contradict one to BUY given a different set of parameters / assumptions etc. However, a Q/A provided recently concerning FSZ has me scratching my head a bit.

It would seem to me that the answer endorsing SLF over (CIX, IGM and FSZ) was too dismissive of FSZ given that FSZ is in the Income Model Portfolio and a (B+) report was provided 30 May 2019, citing the many positive aspects of FSZ, and a mere nod to the 'generally slower growth asset management industry'. Your comments please?
Thanks as always
Steve

Q: Hi,

I've been watching this stock for a while now, waiting for a bounce or some indication its decline was done. Today was not the day I was looking for (down 9%) following its announcement that it will no longer charge commissions on trades. Down 9% seems a bit much for this news. Thankfully, I don't own any shares - yet.

My research indicates that this company is doing much better than its stock performance...annual growth in each of revenues (CAGR or 10%+), operating and net income (16%+) and equity growth (17%). Cash flow (down about 30% TTM) is about the only concern I can see from its filings. Debt seems manageable and on the low side.

Trading near its 52 wk low, is this actually a good time to step into a quality company? Is its continued decline more a reflection of general concerns about the economy? What's really happening here?
